MASTERS MOMENT: The One Where He Slams Same-Sex Marriage, Says the Point of Marriage Is “Procreation”
PHOENIX — Welcome to today’s ‘Masters Moment’ — a daily opportunity to shine light on Blake Masters’ out-of-touch, offensive, and disqualifying beliefs and opinions.
Over the next 68 days, the ‘Masters Moment’ will be your number one source for all things Masters. While he attempts a desperate pivot to hide his “fringe,” “extreme,” and “dangerous” ideas, every day we’ll be releasing the audio and video to prove, in his own words, who Masters really is – and that he’s a risk Arizonans can’t afford.
Today’s moment, where he opposes gay marriage:
Masters: “But I believe marriage is between a man and a woman. I think the John Roberts dissent in that Obergefell case, I have a lot of problems with Justice Roberts, but that was a pretty good dissent. Marriage is an institution that goes back thousands of years and it has a point. The point is procreation and creating children. It’s not just Disney, you know, follow your heart,” (At the Queen Creek-San Tan Valley Republican Women’s Club, 02/08/22).
