Why does Pete Buttigieg bug so many on the left?
LA Times ^ | December 19, 2019 | Melanie Mason

There’s something about Mayor Pete.

As the Midwestern political upstart climbs in Democratic presidential primary polls, Pete Buttigieg also has managed to get deep under the skin of progressive activists.

Social media networks now light up with the latest Buttigieg-induced controversy over his policy positions, his turns of phrase, even the swanky locales of his private fundraisers. The Gen Z crowd mocks him as “Mayo Pete,” his events have been disrupted by liberal protesters and his fresh-faced newness is seen as a drawback.

Since he is a homosexual, doesn’t that make him special, so that he’s not just another white male?

If you have to ask, you may have to look in the mirror.

He’s a typical pretentious, passive-aggressive homosexual.

People can see it and sense it, but they don’t know exactly what it’s about.

Are the lunatic Leftists finally figuring out that Mayor Butthead is just in this for the money? He will be a $$$$ multi-millionaire thanks to West Hollywood fund raisers and donations. Who needs to win an election when you still get paid off?

Probably because he’s the “democrats’” newest “rising” buggerer and 97% of them have never even heard of Indiana.

Something I don’t understand about him... when did he decide to run, who pushed him forward, what clique is behind him?

They find his frequent references to the Bible...disturbing. Sophomoric references, but they wouldn’t know that.

Buttplug bothers them because fully 30-40% of the Demonrat voter base hates his filthy rotten faggot guts.

Demonrats are the party of identity politics, two of thier groups hate the other with a passion.

Blacks and Hispanics will never vote for Buttplug in the numbers needed to win 270 in the EC.

Whenever I see him on TV, I get an earworm...

“It’s Howdy Dooty Time,
It’s Howdy Dowt Time ..”

It won’t stop. So I don’t watch him.
