Buttigieg, who announced an exploratory committee in January, is planning to formally launch his presidential campaign sometime this month. This week, he moved into a campaign headquarters in his hometown of South Bend, with BOOT EDGE EDGE (the correct pronunciation) painted in bold blue letters on yellow wall.

“Mayor Pete”
yeah, let’s just forget about that troublesome last name. Maybe he can run a write-in candidacy campaign.

His father was a Marxist. Just like 0bama’s mother, father and maternal grand parents who had to raise him in the black family style.

with BOOT EDGE EDGE (the correct pronunciation) painted in bold blue letters on yellow wall now ain't that macho, son... how obvious can it get. Yes! He is positioned to be the Big Gay Rat of 2020.
In Italian, Butti means to throw. I couldn't find anything for gieg, though. He throws gieg, whatever gieg might be. Is it a shape of macaroni?

A lot of Millennials would be eager to vote for the first openly gay President. Anyone who wants to virtue signal and brag to their friends would likely vote for him.
