Buttigieg is one of the best politicians America has right now.
Him growing a beard is a completely different thing from known bitch Ted Cruz growing one.
I mean, that's a really low bar. I like Pete, and I would certainly vote for him instead of just about anyone in any position of government. But I do think our standards have been lowered to the point where "not a nazi shitbag" is going to put him in the upper echelon.
I agree, but in many places lesser evil is the best we can do. I think if one lives in a red state then we need to vote as much as we can to minimize harm. If we live in a blue state we need to vote for the most progressive dem in primaries to start the shift away from corporate dems. In pretty much every election from the last 30 years non voting has been the biggest voter block.
Protesting is important too, but we need to follow up the energy and vote as well. Otherwise we are saying that we care a lot about something, but not enough to go all the way with our complaint.
We can't be friends with a take like that. I'll never forgive how he treated Bernie.
At failing upwards.
He's just your typical charismatic Centrist who can deliver some catchy sound bites for the billionaire-owned media to obsess about, but has no legislative experience beyond being the mayor of a small town in Indiana, which he apparently wasn't even that good at.
When it comes to authenticity, he's almost exactly on par with Ted "100% Human Candidate" Cruz
If "best" means technically proficient, then sure. He does the politician thing better than any other establishment Democrats I can think of. If "best" means good for the country, then I have some notes. Obama was the same kind of character, and Trump was the result. I'm not sure I want to go down the highly charismatic Wall Street bitch route again.
Lol. Ok.
Let's blame Obama for Trump. We already blame him for everything else.
Not just Obama, but he is a perfect example of the kinds of Democrats that made fascism inevitable.
It's sad when a McKinsey ghoul is one of our best choices right now.
like all neoliberals in the Dem establishment, Butti will always do what the corporations tell him. don’t fall for it, we need to demand better.
And a politician he is, willing to be bought in exchange for political capital.
