Buttigieg is a butt-kisser... Says things that liberals want to hear to win even doing it to appease the animals... Knowing full well that it is the dumbest crap in the world... Sort of like Beto with his "study" on reparations to bribe the black vote even though he doesn't believe in it and should the "study" demand it, he is willing screw the nation over to do it because he is too much of a coward to say it was a dumb idea....
He hasn’t really said that. Sadly, I think that he had to diffuse the 800-lb gorilla in the room by talking about it up front. So, he brought it up before his opponents did.
No, he has no chance - at least not this election cycle. It's too close on the heels of having a gay democrat president from 2008-2016. Granted that one was in the closet albeit with a really bad "beard", but then he had the "advantage" of being black .... well HALF black, and a muslime to boot. ButtGig is too pasty white to get the nomination this soon while the DNC move radical left at light speed.
If neither Schultz or Buttigieg were in the race, I would vote Trump.
I don't like some of the things Schultz is saying. But, he has been very successful in business.
Honestly I would probably vote for Buttigieg and vote R for local reps. A D for president and a R Congress is the perfect setup.
Personally I am tired of the religious right running the Republican Party. I tend to side more conservative but not on social issues. Pence is the perfect example, what an a-hole.
Rising star Pete Buttigieg has defied a lot of expectations so far, bringing in $7 million in the course of barely 2 months, starting with virtually no established donor network, and very little name recognition outside of Indiana.
He's 37, openly gay, and married for the past 3 years, Navy veteran who deployed to Afghanistan, Harvard Graduate, and Oxford Rhodes Scholar, worked at the McKinsey Consulting firm, and speaks 7 languages, allegedly, not sure how fluent he is.
I live in the South Bend's neighbor city of Mishawaka, but I work in South Bend and visit there almost every day, even when I am not working. South Bend has seen a lot of changes, and there are people who have pride in the city again, most people feel that it's no longer dying, although it still has a lot to do to catch up with other peer cities. I really should work on gathering a photo collage of what downtown South Bend looked like in 2011 compared with how it looks now. 3 high rises were mostly vacant, two one way 4 lane roads cutting through downtown making it very difficult to cross both streets as a pedestrian or ride a bike, now have been converted to one way streets with dedicated green bike path on the sidewalk, there's been over $350 million in private development downtown in the past 6 years with more on the way. South Bend is small on a national scale, only 102,000 people, MSA of 316,000 people.
So what do you think, does this guy stand a chance in the Democratic Primaries?
Sure. His belligerent, 'I'm ***** and hate the Vice President ' is so mainstream.
