I think Donald Trump's interpretation of marriage is something that he himself doesn't really believe in.

When Brad and I got married in 2008, it got a lot of attention. And all the attention was over the fact that we were two men, but people were hardly conscious of the fact that we were entering into an interracial marriage.
