Fox News hosts are eager to talk about personal lives when it comes to LGBTQ people, but not Trump it seems.

On Monday, Fox News tried to delve into Peter Buttigieg’s personal life after he condemned Rush Limbaugh.

Host Sandra Smith played Buttigieg’s response to Rush Limbaugh first to start a conversation about his same-sex relationship:

“I am in a faithful, loving, committed marriage. I’m—I’m proud of my marriage. And I’m proud of my husband. And I’m not going to be lectured on family values from the likes of Rush Limbaugh or anybody who supports Donald J. Trump as the moral as well as political leader of the United States.”

To which contributor Jessica Tarlov responded:

“You see a loving monogamous couple like Pete Buttigieg and Chasten, his husband, up there, showing what is possible, that someone who is in a same-sex relationship could be running for president and doing this well and then they’re torn down by Rush Limbaugh who’s been married four times, I think.

We have Donald Trump, three times married, cheated on all of those wives.”

… and just like that she was immediately cut off by the host.

Without a trace of irony the host said: “Let’s not bring in personal relationships.”

But discussing personal relationships seems to have been fine when it was about Pete Buttigieg, so why not Trump?
