“People will often be polite to you in person, while advancing policies that harm you and your family,” the South Bend, Ind., mayor tweeted.
Vice President Mike Pence has yet to respond publicly to Pete Buttigieg’s ongoing criticism of him. But on Tuesday, Pence’s wife suggested the South Bend, Ind., mayor is manufacturing a feud to boost his 2020 Democratic presidential bid.
“I think in our country we need to understand you shouldn’t be attacked for what your religious beliefs are," she said."And I think kids need to learn that at a young age that this is OK, what faith people have. We don’t attack them for their faith.” “If you have a problem with who I am, your problem is not with me,” Buttigieg said. “Your quarrel, sir, is with my creator.”
