Pete Buttigieg Slow Jams Or Something While Jimmy Fallon Asks If He Goes Both Ways!

We stan a relatable queen! Pete Buttigieg appeared on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon looking like he came straight from a Book of Mormon dress rehearsal, and obvy I stan. Hard. I Standra Oh. After hand-fucking Donald Trump's hair, Jimmy Fallon owes gays a lot, and it's up to you whether this skit with Pete Buttigieg is propper payback. Basically, I think the joke here is that we're expecting Pete Buttigieg to match the funky beat established by Fallon and the band, but instead he talks like he normally does. So like a God-fearing cyborg. AND I STAN OBVY.

The absolute best part comes when Fallon addresses Buttigieg's affinity for both Democrats and Republicans with "What you're saying is that you go both ways?" To which Buttigieg states "No I'm just gay." I. Am. SCREAMING. For a while I thought that having a gay president in Buttigieg would legitimately save the lives of gay youth. While that's still the case, I now realize that regardless of the outcome of the election, just having a respectable presidential candidate say "I'm just gay" on national television is a hugeeeeee win for young gays. Yuge.

I also want to add that while I'm probably going to be writing a lot about Pete Buttigieg on here because he's fucking baller and lowkey sexy in that dad-of-a-Teen-For-Christ kind of way, I also love many of the other candidates. So this isn't a Pete-only club by any means. "No I'm just gay." S C R E A M I N G.
