2020 Democratic presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg has questioned how VP Pence could support President Trump's 'porn star presidency' given his religious convictions.

"Is it that he stopped believing in scripture when he started believing in Donald Trump?" Buttigieg wondered.Jose Luis Magana / AP fileGet breaking news alerts and special reports. The news and stories that matter, delivered weekday mornings.

"I mean, I don't know. It's really strange," Buttigieg said during a CNN town hall on Sunday night."Because I used to at least believe that he believed in our — I've disagreed with him ferociously on these things — but I thought, well, at least he believes in our institutions, and he's not personally corrupt.

"OK, my understanding of scripture is that it is about protecting the stranger and the prisoner and the poor person and that idea of welcome," he continued."That's what I get in the gospel when I'm in church. And his has a lot more to do with sexuality and, I don't know, a certain view of rectitude. But even if you buy into that, how could he allow himself to become the cheerleader of the porn star presidency? I don't know. I don't know.

Buttigieg had been responding to a question about whether Pence would be a better president than Trump.

Pete Butt-plug who?

Who?

Pence is a hypocrite.

That’s religion for you

Long shot.

Well Pete our Vice President is a Godly man,and we Christians forgive people just like God might try it sometimes.

Great question. Quick answer VP is a fraud and hypocrite himself.

you have a shot

I like this guy... Harris/Buttigieg maybe?

A very good question

Because like many Christians, it's just an act with hate as the underlying conviction

How can Buttigieg be part of a Party that supports Anti Semitism and Racism?

1 John 4:1 sums it up! And we wonder why things are in shambles!!! SMH!

Good question. Do evangelicals normally hang out with and support men who are involved in porn? Especially when they aren't making an effort to change their ways?

Good question. Something the media should ask Pence every day!

Now that is quite a statement.

The same way Democrats have been supporting Rapist Bill Clinton for years? He gets the job done!

Perhaps it is because President Trump’s private affairs have nothing to do with Vice President Pence? For all we know, VP Pence does not condone the President’s promiscuous past, but it is better to leave that to the President.

I heard the payoff to Stormy really was $300,000 worth of oats...

President Butt? Nope.

AMEN!!?

Politics makes for strange bedfellows, they say...

EXACTLY! REALLY liking what Buttigieg has 2 offer. It would be awesome if he was on ticket whether it be 4 POTUS OR VP. Buttigieg2020 Biden2020 Beto2020 These three men are our BEST options 4 TheDemocrats Or a woman on one of these tickets would also be awesome MSNBC LGBTQ

Pete who?

Another nobody spewing gas!

I'm digging this guy!

Is Mayor Pete without sin? He of all should come out throwing rocks? I believed him to be much better? I had hoped he would have taken a higher road, the one less traveled? He will set the moral standard for the Democratic Party, is this what is being peddled now? Pray for nation

vp’s “religious convictions” are fake, is how he can support the least Christian man of our time. Trump is the opposite of EVERYTHING Christ taught.

Exactly 🤯

❤️❤️❤️

This. Never. Gets. Old.

Or how any “Christian” supports a depraved, unstable, greed driven racist and criminal. “Christians” when it’s convenient to say so

Well it's the common core of all repubs/ Christians the amazing ability to ignore all facts and reality and believe in complete lies and think nothing of it, utter hypocrisy

Good question, what say you vp pence

Should this really be the 'guy' talking about Pence and his religious beliefs

Excellent. I like this guy already.

Easy --- Pence is a 'Situational Evangelical Christian'

You first have to believe Mike Pence is an honorable man.

FakeNews ! Disgusting!

Yeah, how bout that?

Does he support infanticide?

Buttgig came out against porn. Can you believe that?

Because Pence knows he cant judge. Unlike the writer of this comment.

Trump towers over politics, but the 2020 Democratic campaign trail is a mostly Trump-free zoneThere's far less Trump bashing than you might imagine in the opening round of the 2020 presidential race, particularly from the lips of Democratic candidates who are trying something unusual: barely mentioning his name.
