Thank you, Mayor Pete.
As a gay person in an environment that has a lot of homophobia, seeing a gay candidate winning delegates and even a state in a major party primary in the most powerful nation in the world was amazing. Seeing him hug his husband in front of a huge cheering crowd made me feel more powerful. And God knows that seeing him trigger the homophobes was delicious.
Of course, people will find a way to construct it as another evil move by power-hungry Pete. But that negativity is just unnecessary. I believe that Pete has made the world better, and he made the road for the first LGBT+ President much smoother. I hope he has a bright future yet, hoping he'll get a good job in the next Democratic administration.
