"But I imagine most people are aware of that," Buttigieg said before the Republican showed that he was not, in fact, aware of that.

      I shall never forget as long as I live. Katie Porter or AOC would be better choices.

        He’s a milquetoast centrist moderate who will champion the same neoliberal policies that led us to this current state of crisis in America. He was also a proud McKinsey consultant and I think he worked with the CIA. During the election I thought his main issues were just not enough experience, though (he was just mayor of a small town basically). Social issue wise he’s better than Trump still. Anyone is, though lol.
