'You see a loving, monogamous couple like Pete Buttigieg and Chasten, his husband, up there showing what is possible,' Jessica Tarlov said.
Tarlov called the remarks"homophobic" during a Fox News panel discussion on Monday, drawing comparisons between what she said is Buttigieg's apparently happy monogamous marriage and Limbaugh, who has been married several times, and with Trump, who is reported to have had affairs during his multiple marriages over the years.
"And then they're torn down by Rush Limbaugh, who's been married four times I think," she said, before pointing out the president's past infidelity. "Let's not bring in personal relationships," Smith interjected. She then turned to read Limbaugh's original comments, which were about Buttigieg's personal relationship.
"I love my husband. I'm faithful to my husband," he former mayor of South Bend, Indiana said."On stage, we usually just go for a hug. But I love him very much, and I'm not going to take lectures on family values from the likes of Rush Limbaugh."
