What many of you may not realize is that Mayor Pete Buttigieg of South Bend, Indiana, by virtual of being the first openly gay presidential candidate, is picking up all the gay votes and money throughout the country. A lot of gays are quite wealthy, many of them are in Silicon valley (Tim Cook, CEO of Apple Technologies is gay and worth billions).

Throughout the fruited plain (pun intended) the gay communities are most assuredly filtering tons of campaign contributions into Buttigieg’s financial coffers. He’s got a built-in monetary base, but it doesn’t translate into votes by the general populace, as the gay community comprises about 1-2 percent of the U.S. population, regardless of how much the gays jigger the numbers to make it seem that gays are now legion.

Thus Mayor Pete has huge donation numbers but no one to vote for him but gays. I might add, Blacks have never been big fans of gays in general, and note that Buttigieg has miniscule backing and virtually no votes at all coming from the Black community. [I might add here, that I bet dollars to donuts that Cory Booker is a closet gay, the Blacks smell that off of him, and he has virtually no backing or votes coming out of the Black community. At least they know that touchy-feely Joe Biden is heterosexual and he scores high with Blacks.]

Bottom line, high dollar contributions for Mayor Pete, but no votes.

Buttigieg had the second-highest total of Kentucky donors this year with 88, followed by Biden with 65 and Warren with 63. Harris and Klobuchar tied with 37 individual donors.

O’Rouke, Yang and Booker had 12 to 15 donors each in Kentucky, while none of the other 12 candidates had more than seven donors and four candidates only had a single donor.

Impressive, not!

Princess Spreading Bull (Warren) or Willie Brown’s Jamaican Whore (Harris) will be the Regressive Socialist ‘RAT POTUS nominee. Buttplug is running for VP — he will add homosexuality and veteran status to their idiotic intersectionality matrix. The Leftist media are frothing at the thought of Buttplug and his “husband” having anal sex in the Veep’s residence at the Naval Observatory.

/Eww

all fine and dandy, but the REAL money being raised for Trump is with the big joint RNC/TRUMP PACs, which are not subject to individual candidate limits ... e.g.:
