Jean-Pierre Calls For Pence To Apologize For Joke About Buttigieg.
OAN: White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre has asked former Vice President Mike Pence to apologize for telling a “homophobic joke” regarding Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg’s paternity leave.
Over the weekend, Mike Pence spoke before journalists and politicians at the annual Gridiron Club dinner in Washington, D.C. During his speech at the traditionally humorous white-tie gathering, Pence poked fun at Buttigieg for taking paternity leave while Americans faced unprecedented issues with air travel.
“He took two months ‘maternity’ leave whereupon thousands of travelers were stranded in airports, the air traffic system shut down, and airplanes nearly collided on our runways. Pete is the only person in human history to have a child and everyone else gets postpartum depression,” Pence said.
Jean-Pierre told The Washington Blade, a liberal LGBTQ outlet, that the former vice president should apologize “to women and LGBTQ people.” MORE
Well just wait until she hears what he said about Sammy and the Transportation Secretarys Husband and their Checkered Luggage Trails.
Mike Pence made Chasten cry in his lube!
Don’t they have anything BETTER to do?!
(Never mind. I already know the answer.)
I hate Pence, but how was that joke in any way “homophobic”?
Yeah, Pence should apologize, but not for her reason. Because, I don’t trust the backstabber and I’d rather people weren’t suddenly more favorable towards him. Even Conservatives are gullible.
Pence running for president is so bizarre.
I don’t believe a VP has ever opposed their former boss in an election?
Imagine thinking he has a chance in hell?
I have a better chance of quarterbacking a Super Bowl team…
Homophobic… “I do not think that word means what you think it means.”
Ms Jean-Pierre, in order for the apology be more direct, please define “woman”.
Not gay bashing in any way.
Making fun of a man leaving a job that affects the entire country? Yes.
Did you know it’s a federal employee benefit to get 12 weeks off for paternity leave?
Yup.

“Pence running for president is so bizarre.

…he doesn’t have a chance and he knows it.
He’s there primarily to be a splitter, to peel a few votes from President Trump, because that’s how the devil rolls, by dividing those that do not serve him against themselves.
Secondarily, he’s there for reasons you stated, so CNMSNBC, et.al., can point and say “see, his own vice president and a Republican doesn’t think he’s fit, so it must be so!”, conveniently leaving out the fact that the GOP-e saddled him with Pence in the first place before they’d allow him to be a candidate, so they could watch President Trump closely and use Pence to damage him when possible (like with General Flynn), and hold 25thing President Trump in reserve if all else fails.
Pence is there now for the same reason he was ALWAYS there. To divide and distract and do what damage he can in the service of the same master that they ALL serve, nothing more.
The intention is not “president Pence”,
The intention is to once again deny President Trump.
Add that the comical KJP should ‘apologize’ for trying to pass off as white by wearing a mouth-eaten shirley temple wig.
Are they now eating their own yet?
Pence has a LOT to apologize for. That isn’t among it

*…he doesn’t have a chance and he knows it.*
He does if I say he does!
*giggle!*
Pence. just another demon disguised as a Christian.
“Do not be misled.”
Please excuse the interruption but I just read that Snowball the Sourpuss has departed & would like to extend my condolences to his family and friends. May he rest in peace and may the perpetual light shine upon him , Amen .
If that’s the best Pence can come up with for a joke, he’d better stick to politics, he sucks as a comedian.
