The main reason he is still in the race is to promote a positive image for gay candidates in future elections. The Left wants to completely change this country, but they realize they can only accomplish that slowly, by degrees. That’s why pete mentions Christianity so often, to blur the lines in the minds of voters who don’t know any better. The Left figured out a long time ago they need to use long term strategy, many on the Right still don’t realize what the Left is doing, and plays right along.
I assume Powder Puff is setting the ground work for a 2024 run... No D is winning 2020, so the smart ones are laying the ground work for a 2024 run when they actually have a shot.
Pete is without question the smartest person in the Democrat party clown car running... but he should be smart enough to know even with the nomination no D is winning the white house this cycle.
