I mean this sincerely. Who the fuck cares if he’s gay…but… he’s doing an amazing job where he is. He’s going after shitty airlines and shitty corporations that are screwing people over. Give him 4 more years dunking on delta please !
Btw, I’ve noticed nearly every positive dem post on Lemmy today has the top comment being a bot generated negative comment… it’s so obvious it’s standing out.
I’d be fine with a gay VP. We shouldn’t be choosing our candidates based on what bigots want.
Though I’m not sure Pete is it. He has documented animosity from Black voters because of his time as mayor of South Bend during a period of disparate enforcement of cannabis prohibition. Since Harris is trying to distance herself from her time enforcing cannabis prohibition when she was DA, I think appointing Buttigieg runs the risk of reinforcing the “she’s a cop” narrative and increasing the likelihood that it will become an effective attack against her.
I’m a member of the queer community and absolutely do not think this is a wise idea for this cycle. Maybe next time around Pete.

A subset of voters that we want to win over
Do we though?
Considering our election system is fundamentally broken and a few thousand voters in a handful of states control our outcome, yes.

Pete is 100% but he is not the correct gay candidate. He needs time to grow.
100
No, 100 times from this one seems excessive.
