Agreed that Buttigieg has no chance this year. But he is young enough that he will only be 50 in 2032. By then he may have held a cabinet position in a Democrat administration and the media and the government schools will have had 12 more years to indoctrinate young people on the splendors of homosexuality.
In the short run he is doing his part to debase the standards of political discourse--already in decline since the first time Bill Clinton ran for President.
