连生养自己的家庭都都随意抹黑的还算人吗?LOL
http://www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/pete-buttigieg-brother-in-law-accuses-2020-candidate-of-lying-about-his-family-for-political-gain
Pete Buttigieg’s brother-in-law is accusing the gay Democratic presidential
hopeful of hijacking his family’s history for political advantage by
crafting a bogus backstory of poverty, homelessness, and homophobia.
Rhyan Glezman, 34, a pastor in small-town Michigan, said he was inundated by
death threats and hate mail when stories surfaced this month claiming he
was a bigot who had fallen out with his younger brother Chasten when Chasten
came out of the closet.
The reports were based on a Washington Post article, which described how
Chasten, 29, was forced out of the family home and never reconciled with his
two brothers.
But rather than rejecting his brother Chasten, a would-be "first gentleman,"
Glezman, who has run the Clio Community Church for the past two years, said
his family has been loving and supportive throughout.
“A mayor from a small city and his husband, a child who grew up with
nothing and his parents kicked him out … it makes a perfect political story
for the campaign,” he said in an interview with the Washington Examiner at
his church in Clio. “To me that’s very sad. If that’s all you have to
stand on, you’re not fit to be president of the United States.”
The gray church building stands on the outskirts of Clio, a town of about 2,
600 people, along a road of sporting goods stores and nondescript restaurant
chains. Inside, worshipers are greeted by a verse from Romans: "The pain
that you've been feeling can't compare with the joy that's coming."
Evangelical services are held in a traditional prayer space or, for more
enthusiastic participants, in the gym.
Buttigieg, 37, the mayor of South Bend, Ind., since 2012, emerged from
relative obscurity to establish himself as a presidential contender with a
compelling story. Although initially light on policies, he was the subject
of a string of glowing profiles. Several focused on Chasten, who met the
presidential hopeful on the dating app Hinge in 2015.
“Chasten Buttigieg has been a homeless community college student and a
Starbucks barista," the Washington Post stated. "Now, he could be ‘first
gentleman.'"
But its reference to Glezman’s opposition to gay marriage — based he says
on a Biblical interpretation of what the institution means — misrepresented
complicated family relationships, he said. What particularly stung, he
added, was a line suggesting he or his other brother Dustin had effectively
disowned Chasten by saying: “No brother of mine … ”
Visibly pained, Glezman said: “Do I love him? Absolutely. He is my brother.
” He said, “You can’t change that. Just because we have a disagreement
doesn’t change that.”
Glezman said no one had been particularly shocked when Chasten came out as
gay. In fact it helped them make sense of his studious nature in a family of
outdoorsmen, according to Glezman. Nor was his family particularly
religious — “We went to church at Easter and Christmas" — or the type to
banish a son into homelessness.
“He went away,” is how Glezman put it. “He was struggling for a time. But
there was nothing on the family end that said he had to leave.”
Glezman was particularly angered, he added, by accounts suggesting the
family was poor and that Chasten went without as he was growing up. It was
little more than an example of playing the “victim card” for political
gain.
“The story makes it look as if he came from nothing, a poor family,” he
said. “Chasten had everything, from cellphones paid for, car insurance paid
for.”
Glezman's bond with his brothers, added the married father of one, was
marked by a tattoo of a cross on his arm inscribed, “Forever.” And he
explained how he treated his younger brother to a trip to an amusement park
for his 21st birthday. “Would I do that if we didn’t have a relationship?”
They last hugged at the funeral for their grandmother a year ago. Glezman
said he has hosted his brother's previous boyfriends and that he went to a
baseball game with Chasten and Pete Buttigieg last year.
Glezman was not prepared for the reaction to the Washington Post story and
how what he views as a lie spread like wildfire online. Hateful missives
arrived by email and text. Vitriol was posted on Facebook and Twitter. “
There was one that said I should go out to the woodshed and kill myself,”
he said.

对于当代政客来说,他这还是很干净的。和党主党,一丘之貉,只不过,和党吃相稍微
比主党好看些,价值观更加接近正常人罢了。
