Buttigieg: “We’ve probably had excellent presidents who were gay — we just didn’t know which ones' by stableford
If South Bend, Ind., Mayor Pete Buttigieg wins the 2020 election, he’ll be the first openly gay man to serve as president. But Buttigieg says he’s “almost certain” he wouldn’t be the first gay president in U.S. history.
A 2018 Gallup poll found that 4.5 percent of American adults identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender. Applying that percentage to history, it would mean that two of the 44 people who have served as president should have been gay.“My gaydar even doesn’t work that well in the present, let alone retroactively,” he joked.
“If you have a problem with who I am, your problem is not with me,” Buttigieg said. “Your quarrel, sir, is with my creator.”
