Midwestern mayor Buttigieg wows progressive Dems in San Francisco
Politico ^ | March 29, 2019 | Carla Marinucci

“I’m proud of who I am, I am proud of my husband and our marriage,’’ said the Democratic mayor of South Bend, Ind., whose spouse, Chasten, sat nearby as he addressed reporters here prior to a sold-out speech before hundreds at the Commonwealth Club. “It might just be the most normal thing in my life.’’

What a phony. He is on board with packing the SCOTUS and eliminating the electoral college. He just packages these power grabs with nice platitudes about "all Americans". His so called rise is being aided by sycophant MSM coverage.

Butt-gig does NOT speak for me and mine. He is a sinner who revels in his sin, and his Globohomo political buddies oppose Christianity and all that is good.

Its only because he is gay, if he was straight no one would even know his name.

I don’t think he will get 1.8%. He is not worth talking about or even knowing about.

I would not imagine that he will do well in a general election.

He’s another Obama. He looks and sounds quite rational, and is clearly able to hide his radical beliefs. None of the other announced and unannounced Democrat candidates come even close to sounding ‘quite rational’. We see now, the beltway press turning him into steak and potatoes, when he really is arugula and tofu.
