The media has been heavily promoting the candidacy of darkhorse Democrat Pete Buttigieg whose gayness has become the top qualifier for the presidency according to those swooning over the small town mayor.
Buttigieg may never be able to overcome his whiteness in today’s ultra-racist Democratic party but the mayor of South Bend, IN but he is earning raves for having a really cute hubby and the media is eating up what has become his other key selling point – he is attacking Evangelical Christians with increasing frequency.
Mayor Pete recently scoffed at the idea that President Trump believed in God and has initiated a crowd-pleasing and media-stoked public feud with former Hoosier State governor and now Vice President Mike Pence who Buttigieg is accusing of being an anti-gay bigot but Pence is only a proxy for the left’s ongoing war on Christians.
Buttigieg escalated the war on the sincerely held religious beliefs of millions of conservative Christians as well as their American birthright to participate in the political system by ripping them for their support of President Trump during an appearance on NBC’s Press The Meat Meet The Press.

Via PJ Media, “Gay Presidential Hopeful Pete Buttigieg Lectures Trump and Evangelicals on Biblical Sexual Ethics”:
South Bend, Ind., Mayor Pete Buttigieg came out swinging at President Trump and Christians on “Meet the Press” Sunday, after host Chuck Todd asked him about evangelical support for the president.
“You said something rather strong about the president, that you said, ‘It’s hard to look at his actions and believe that they are the actions of somebody who believes in God.’ How do you square that assessment with the fact that the evangelical Christian community is so devoted to his candidacy?” Todd asked.
Mayor Pete (as the fawning media has dubbed him) called evangelicals who support Trump hypocrites. “Here you have somebody who not only acts in a way that is not consistent with anything that I hear in scripture or in church, where it’s about lifting up the least among us and taking care of strangers, which is another word for immigrants,” Buttigieg said, “and making sure that you’re focusing your effort on the poor. But also personally, how you’re supposed to conduct yourself. Not chest thumping look-at-me-ism, but humbling yourself before others.”
More from Mayor Pete:
CHUCK TODD: You said something rather strong about the president, that you said, “It’s hard to look at his actions and believe that they are the actions of somebody who believes in God.” How do you square that assessment with the fact that the Evangelical Christian community is so devoted to his candidacy?
MAYOR PETE BUTTIGIEG: Well, it’s something that really frustrates me because the hypocrisy is unbelievable. Here, you have somebody who not only acts in a way that is not consistent with anything that I hear in scripture or in church, where it’s about lifting up the least among us and taking care of strangers, which is another word for immigrants. And making sure that you’re focusing your effort on the poor. But also personally, how you’re supposed to conduct yourself. Not chest thumping look-at-me-ism, but humbling yourself before others. Foot washing is one of the central images in the New Testament. And we see the diametric opposite of that in this presidency. I think there was perhaps a cynical process where he decided to, for example, begin to pretend to be pro-life and govern accordingly. Which was good enough to bring many Evangelicals over to his side. But even on the version of Christianity that you hear from the religious right, which is about sexual ethics, I can’t believe that somebody who was caught writing hush money checks to adult film actresses is somebody they should be lifting up as the kind of person you want to be leading this nation.
Man, that must have given Chuck Todd a chubby…
There are some who would argue that Buttigieg’s homosexuality hardly makes him an authoritative source on biblical matters but since that particular demographic is of a vastly higher percentage in the media and entertainment industry than the country as a whole they have leeched onto him as their favorite candidate.
Unfortunately, the schmuck has zero chance of getting into the White House as anything other than a visitor on a public tour.
