No-nonsense comedian and actor Margaret Cho has some strong words for Christians seeking to ban drag shows.
Cho, who has been doing standup for 30 years and recently co-starred in Fire Island, was on The View when she let her opinion about Jesus’ fashion and Christian homophobes be known.
The panel was talking about the rise in anti-drag laws across the country, including Tennessee’s recent law that severely limits public drag performances and gender-related care for trans minors in the state.
"If it's Christians [leading these bills], Christ himself is wearing a long dress and a duster from Chico's," she said. "In the Bible, him and the Apostles all went to Chico's and got the same Bea Arthur sets. It's a Golden Girls special. They're all wearing the duster."

A classic distraction technique, distracting us away from the real issues that they were voted into office to focus on: jobs, healthcare, keeping our children safe from harm at their own school. But we know that bullies are incompetent at solving real issues,” he said in a video posted to social media.
“Drag queens are the Marines of the queer movement,” the RuPaul’s Drag Race host continued. “Don’t get it twisted and don’t be distracted: register to vote so we can get these stunt queens out of office and put some smart people with real solutions into government. And by the way, a social media post has never been as powerful as a registered vote.”
