Buttigieg: I Welcome A Fight With Trump Over Who "Has A More Traditional Attitude On Marriage"
Real Clear Politics ^ | May 5th 2019 | Tim Hains

Posted on 05/07/2019 2:46:29 PM PDT by Ennis85

In an interview, Saturday with MSNBC's Donny Deutsch, Democratic presidential candidate and South Bend, Indiana Mayor Pete Buttigieg discussed his philosophy of campaigning and previewed some of the lines of attack he might take against President Trump.

"The fact that I was packing my bags for Afghanistan when he was filming season seven of 'Celebrity Apprentice,' we could have that fight," he said. "And if somebody wants to raise the question of which one of us has a more traditional attitude on marriage, we can have that fight."

"But at the end of the day, it's not about him, it's not about me," Buttigieg said. "Because here's the thing about this president. He has the ability to take any attention that comes his way, including attacks and criticism, and just kind of devour it, so we could unintentionally be feeding the beast by competing to see who's the one going to be landing the biggest punch, the best zinger, and the reality, if you step back and think about the mentality, that's an environment where it's almost like he's the one we're trying to impress."

DONNY DEUTSCH: You have had a stunning, stunning beginning to your campaign. The press is just nonstop. Latest TIME Magazine cover, a fantastic cover. You and your husband. Now, as a strategist, I might pull you aside after that and say, "Mayor Pete, that a very defining attribute, you and your husband on the cover." You being gay, as a defining versus just one of your core attributes. I would say, as a strategist, maybe we don't want that to be the defining attribute, but one of your core attributes. Would you push back on me on that?

MAYOR PETE BUTTIGIEG: That is something you think about when you're presenting yourself to a broader public,

Many studies on monogamy in male heterosexual “marriage” have proven that “married” gay men are NOT monogamous at all.

I have no doubt that B*ttplug merely reduced the number of sex partners he has because he’s “married.” So he probably went from 150 (before marriage) to 50 hookups per year. This kind of perversion is typical among gay men, no big deal.

It is really no fight, the one and only traditional view of marriage is that it a union of A man and A woman. Of the two which one is a union of a man and a woman?

I do not care about tradition. I care about Natural Law, which is the foundation for viable traditions.

Two males or two females cannot reproduce unaided. What takes place between them is not sexuality; it is eroticism.

The defining attribute of sexuality is based in biological reproduction, not in cultural marriage.

Well, first “Mr. Buttigag”, you have to know what the DEFINITION of marriage IS. Not some a$$fax information being spewed around that is spoken as gospel to those wandering around in stupor. Donald Trump will rip you a “new one” if you dare saunter up to the podium and start spewing your twisted beliefs. Go ahead, make his day. You’ll saunter in, you’ll LIMP out.

Trump has a vision from God. Try to beat that, Booty. Gay will never have looked sillier. Elijah vs. prophets of Baal. With Hillary as Jezebel.

Trump’s secret weapon here is Mike Pence.

Oh no. Elijah mocked the prophets of Baal. Trump should essay no less. Like a great CEO, Trump knows whom to consult. It’ll be Mike Pence.

Conventional marriage fell into mere eroticism in the last several decades.

They’re the “booty boys”!! And they want to give Christian America a big middle finger by being in the WH.

The left is just plain evil.

Old buttplug is a VERY naive, stupid, little untried child, w2ho has NO idea just what he IS going to get from the other people running against him in the primary and from Trump!

He really should have gotten a damn clue when even lefties called him out for his idiotic attack on Pence.

I hope he keeps it up.....he’s showing just how off the wall he is....kinda like AOC and her two buddies....all these pretend characters are making themselves into laughing stocks and doing a great job of it!

The Demorat candidates are certainly looking like a freak show.

I don’t believe for a minute he takes himself seriously about this run for resident. He’s just using the stage to promote the LGBT Agenda and shove it down everyones throat.

That’s what we’re supposed to believe. Thus far, I haven’t even a vague glimmer of any of that from the old buttboy.
