Gay U.S Ambassador To Germany Compares Pete Buttigieg To Jussie Smollett For Attacking Pence


Just about everyone is familiar with Jussie Smollett's alleged hate hoax.

Now United States Ambassador to Germany Richard Grenell is accusing Pete Buttigieg of something similar.

Recently, Buttigieg called Mike Pence "anti-gay". Richard Grenell, who is gay, claims Pete Buttigieg is committing a hate hoax.

Buttigieg was commenting on a video where Pence calls the former "don't ask, don't tell" policy too pro-gay for the military.

During an interview with Fox news Grenell said, after viewing the clip of Buttigieg calling Pence anti-gay:

"Mayor Pete has been pushing this hate hoax, along the lines of Jussie Smollett, for a very long time now, several weeks."

Grenell, who calls the Pences his friends, has said they are:

"...great…godly people [who] don't have hate in their heart for anyone."

He went on to talk about how Mike and Karen Pence know his partner and have accepted them.
