South Bend, Indiana Mayor and Democratic Presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg has had a great week. His campaign raised $7 million in its first quarter and the once-underdog is quickly becoming a contender to clench the nomination for the 2020 election.

But Buttigieg doesn't just want to lead the Union, he officiates unions as well.


In a now-viral Facebook post, Buttigieg shared his encounter with a couple at the mayor's office. They had a special request: that he marry them before the woman's C-section that morning.

Buttigieg happily obliged.

He said in the Facebook post:

"I corralled a few staff members as they were trickling into the office, to serve as witnesses, and filled out the paperwork. Their rings weren't ready, so one of my colleagues found a ribbon that would do the trick. A few minutes later, Gabe and Mary, newly married, left my office with just enough time to get to the hospital."

Later that day, the couple—Mary and Gabe Jones—gave birth to a baby girl.

"It's moments like this that I'll miss when my term as mayor comes to an end," Buttigieg added.

The internet may have shed some tears.

Some felt...less than productive.

And it solidified a persona Buttigieg is rapidly becoming known for.

Now, even more people are regarding Buttigieg as a stand-up guy.

He's even inspired some of the internet's most wholesome memes.

Buttigieg is expected to officially announce his candidacy in the coming weeks, and it's clear that may are ready to cast their vote for him.

Jesse Watters Has Complete Meltdown After Republicans Lose The Midterms—And We're Grabbing The Popcorn

Fox News host Jesse Watters expressed sheer disbelief after Democrats swept midterm election races to win back both the U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate in a clear repudiation of the Trump administration.

A Trump advisor told CNN that the election results were "essentially too big to rig." President Donald Trump has said he accepts the results and even acknowledged that his widely unpopular war in Iran played a significant role in pushing Americans to vote for Democrats. Affordability concerns, chief among them the price of gas, also contributed to the backlash Republicans experienced at the voting booth.
