Arad Winwin, a 34-year-old model and content creator best known for his work as a gay adult film star, is currently under fire for sharing social media posts in support of Donald Trump and in opposition to Kamala Harris — both leading up to the 2024 presidential election and after Trump was declared president-elect.

If you're unfamiliar, Winwin has been an incredibly successful and massively popular gay adult film star for many years. According to Porn Base Central, he starred in gay porn videos from platforms and studios such as CockyBoys, Ducati Porn, Falcon Studios, Gay Room, Hot House, Lucas Entertainment, Male Access, Man Royale, Men.com, Naked Sword, Nasty Daddy, Next Door Studios, Kink.com, and Raw Alpha Males. Winwin was also nominated for a couple of GayVN Awards — in 2018, 2021, and 2022 — as outlined on AVN.com.

In January 2017, Cocktails & Cocktalk published an interview with Winwin titled, "This hunky Iranian soldier escaped his country on foot and now works as an underwear model."

Winwin, who was then working as a "Trophy Boy" jockstrap model for the underwear company Andrew Christian, told the LGBTQ+ blog that he "went AWOL [absent without leave] during duty fighting for Iran." He also explained that he left the Iranian military service at 22 years of age and eventually immigrated into the U.S., which is where he still resides.

Winwin has a massive social media presence that, as of this writing, includes 507,000 followers on Instagram, 284,000 on X/Twitter, and an active OnlyFans page charging $19.99 per month for a subscription. Winwin also has a TikTok account with 3.4 million likes and 295,000 followers, but the profile currently doesn't display any content.

However, things took a turn when some fans and followers caught wind of certain posts that Winwin had been sharing on social media.

On November 6, 2024, Winwin shared a Instagram post that included an image originated by @dailypatriotreport. Winwin wrote in the caption:

"All the best and MEGA CONGRATULATIONS TO our president MR @realdonaldtrump. Make America great and affordable and safe AGAIN. LOVE IS LOVE. We all together in this."

The non-embeddable Instagram post, which can be seen below, received a flood of mostly negative comments.

One user wrote, "(1) gay (2) immigrant (3) porn star, man! You're the holy trinity of the kinda people Trump insults and Republican supporters hunt for." Another commented, "Lmao you'd be the first deported."

A fellow adult film star Lucas Dell wrote, "Disgusting and disappointing." Another response reads, "You live off the gay community. Yet you support a president who will only do harm to the LGBTQ community. How does that make sense?"

Out reached out to Arad Winwin for comment. The adult film star promptly replied over the course of several DMs explaining his reasons behind this political stance, as well as how he feels about the negative comments he has received. (For communication purposes, Out reacted with a thumbs-up emoji to every DM sent by Winwin upon receiving and reading each message.)

Out: Would you like to comment on why support Trump, and/or share an argument/reason behind that political stance you've been sharing in public on social media?

Out: You're also an immigrant who came here as a young adult, and Trump pushed many "mass deportation" messages during his campaign and rallies. Do you have any comment regarding that topic?

Winwin's subsequent DMs repeated most of the points he had already made in earlier DMs shared throughout this article. Of note, Winwin's additional messages revealed that "I don't do any work (gay work) last 3 years." He also talked about currently living in the U.S. but feeling uncomfortable about revealing which city he resides in, prompting Out to exclude that information.

Overall, Winwin also reaffirmed his belief that he doesn't have to "think like the LGBTQ+ community" simply because he is gay. He also made several mentions regarding his right to freedom of speech.

Even though Winwin mostly discussed the comments under his Instagram grid post congratulating Trump, it's worth noting that Winwin has been sharing various Instagram stories in support of Donald Trump and criticizing individuals such as Kamala Harris, Michelle Obama, Oprah Winfrey, and Joe Biden in the last few months — many of which have been obtained by Out.
