In an interview with the ‘Today’ show, Pete Buttigieg said that he and his partner Chasten want to be fathers but ‘maybe’ he will need to first finish his run for the presidency.

He said that he plans to emphasize his religious faith in the face of those who criticize him for being a gay Christian.

The mayor of South Bend, Indiana claimed that even though God is not likely a partisan, he would never be a Republican like President Trump.

The 37-year-old Democrat added that it is “important that we stop seeing religion used as a kind of cudgel, as if God belonged to a political party.

“And if he did, I can’t imagine it would be the one that sent the current president into the White House.”

He said of his 29-year-old husband: “I don’t know exactly when and how we’re going to pull that off, but Chasten is made to be a dad. And I’m looking forward to it too, as soon as we can figure it out.”

Chasten’s brother, a pastor, admitted he cannot “support the gay lifestyle.”

The Buttigiegs paid a visit with former President Jimmy Carter and sat in on the Sunday School class he taught for many years.

Speaking about his husband, Mayor Pete said: “He’s just an example of somebody who will make a great dad one day. He’s a great husband and he’ll make a great first spouse for this country too.

“He cares about other people. He’s a teacher. He cares about education, cares about kids. And he’s somebody who I think is really alive to the ways that being in public office can allow you to help other people.”
