Gay activist Allen Roskoff isn’t happy Donald Trump got reelected.
He also isn’t happy with Mayor Eric Adams, Queens DA Melinda Katz, Staten Island Rep. Nicole Malliotakis, South Bronx Rep. Ritchie Torres and several other “notorious hackmeisters” featured on the invite to his 35th annual holiday party on Dec. 20.
“It’s a legendary party. People wait with anticipation to see who gets skewered,” Roskoff said.
The invitation shows Trump and First Lady Melania with Hitler mustaches. Matt Gaetz has his arm upraised in a Nazi salute.
“The worst is yet to come,” proclaims the invite, accompanied by clips of “Springtime for Hitler” from Mel Brooks’ classic “The Producers.”
Among past guests are Lance Bass from NSYNC, Jamie-Lynn Sigler from “The Sopranos,” “Law and Order” franchise actors Kathleen Chalfant and Kathryn Erbe and Kyan Douglas from “Queer Eye for the Straight Guy.”
Invites also went out to Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, State Attorney General Tish James, the Rev. Al Sharpton, Public Advocate Jumaane Williams and Rep. Jerry Nadler.
Mayor Adams attended previous parties, but isn’t invited this year “since he turned far right,” Roskoff told me.
Roskoff, who heads the Jim Owles Liberal Democratic Club, told me, “We are about to have a president who is a stark raving lunatic with unqualified and dangerous cabinet members and appointees. We are building a resistance to save democracy.”
