“So whatever we do now will decide not just what the next four years looks like, but what like but the next 40 years will look like,” Buttigieg told more than 500 people at the Wildwood Smokehouse & Saloon. “That’s why we’ve just not got to win an election, but win the era for our values.”
Republicans have made claims on those values and Buttigieg is reclaiming them, said Sarah Prineas, who introduced him.
Buttigieg “doesn’t pay a whole lot of attention to the giant, orange elephant in the room,” she said. “He is a uniter. He makes us feel like we’re in this together.”
Buttigieg, who made a stop at the Iowa City farmers’ market ahead of the rally, contends his rhetoric about values appeals to not only his Democratic audiences but to voters “who are not tribal, committed partisans.”
By appealing to shared values “like freedom and security and democracy and faith and family ... means there is more to reaching out to independents than moving into the center.”
“These are things that don’t belong to one party unless we surrender them on my side of the aisle,” Buttigieg said. “If we do that, we shouldn’t be surprised that someone family oriented or faith oriented of shooting [?] oriented thinks the Republicans are the only ones speaking to them.”
Republicans weren’t as generous in their assessment of Buttigieg’s campaign swing through Iowa.
“Pete Buttigieg hasn’t been properly vetted by the American people yet, but we already know he’s fully embracing the 2020 Democratic platform of late-term abortion, government-run health care, abolishing the Electoral College and court packing,” Republican Party of Iowa Chairman Jeff Kaufmann said.

ButtGiggityGittyGoo is a Red Diaper Doper Baby.
A commie off the old block.
I always suspected Mayor Pete’s last name is spelled B-u-t-t-i-p-e-i-g.
Pillow biters ain’t an American value.
“Buttigieg, who made a stop at the Iowa City farmers’ market ahead of the rally, contends his rhetoric about values appeals to not only his Democratic audiences but to voters “who are not tribal, committed partisans.””
Oh yeah Peter, buggery, communism, and gun control are as American as apple pie. And get the F out of my college alma mater town.
“...more than 500 people at the Wildwood Smokehouse & Saloon.”
Meanwhile, President Trump is renting out entire COUNTIES to hold his rallies, LOL!
Trump in a LANDSLIDE, 2020. MAGA! :)
“He is a uniter. He makes us feel like we’re in this together.”
He’d like to be together alright...with half the men in the audience.
The guy is a Pinko.
I have an even harder time remembering when Sodomy was an American value.
Trump will “Boot” Buttigieg back big time if the President faces off with Pete whatever his name is but my money would be with “Mr. McFeely” Biden to be his opponent.
Buttgiggity is a pinko right down to his prolapsed rectum.
