Burning with the velocity of a prairie fire on a gusty Indiana day, Pete Buttigieg scorched the airwaves, seared the podcasts, and charred the press this week as he ignited his presidential campaign, temporarily torching his Democratic competition in the process.
The secret to Buttigieg’s publicity run was no secret, wrote Matthew Yglesias in Vox. Like Molly Bloom in his favorite novel, Ulysses, he can’t stop saying “yes”—to media invitations. In recent weeks, he’s appeared on a CNN town hall, Ellen, A-list podcasts and Morning Joe, and been featured in New York, POLITICO Magazine, the Atlantic and much more. But saying yes is never enough to hold the press spellbound. Buttigieg has satisfied the ravenous press corps’ appetite by offering them an entire menu of newish things—no, make that an entire food court of newish things—to write about. He’s the youngest candidate in the field (at 37, he’s the only millennial except for Tulsi Gabbard), he’s gay and married, he’s an Afghan war veteran, he’s a Rhodes scholar (as is Cory Booker, but never mind), he plays a decent piano, he’s a churchgoer, he’s the mayor of the fourth-largest city in Indiana, he once gave a TEDx talk, he worked as a McKinsey consultant, he’s a polymath, he’s as earnest as a preacher, he’s an old person’s idea of what a young person should be like, and he’s figured out how to package progressive ideas as moderate.

Butt...butt...butt...it is his chief asset!!
Buttplugs is easier to remember.
He was studying when Beto was driving drunk, breaking into houses, and trying on dresses.
I don't think Buttigieg will win the nomination or the election, but he could attract a lot of sympathy, even from unexpected quarters, especially if he can keep his mouth shut more.
Beto is the son or kid brother who can more or less look out for himself - not very well, maybe but he survives.
Pete is the one the kids pick on, and people get protective.
His problem is that he has to alienate voters now, who he'll need later on.
Worse yet, he wants to alienate them.
Lol
Because Beto only sucked figuratively.
The lad is stupid!
This idiot has harmed what little of his brain was still working, skateboarding without a helmet.
Because BUTTigig is gay and is married to a man just like most of the ‘’ journalist ‘’ on TV.
BUTT PLUG!
Calling one self a Christian (or a religious Jew) while violating one of the basic tenets of the faith doesn’t fly.
a/ they are all about trying to normalize their perversion
b/ once they are in the institution they will undo many other requirements.
LOL.
Peto Buttplug.
Mayor Butt is the white obama. And Beto most likely has some Me Too problems in his closet given his personality.
