Mayor Pete Buttigieg is the "most impressive... candidate" in terms of political talent in the current 2020 Democratic presidential field, Brit Hume said, comparing the South Bend, Ind. mayor's rise in popularity to the "emergence of Barack Obama."

Hume said Buttigieg is "as fluid as he can be, [and] he seems to have something to say about nearly every issue."

[elpadre]

He learned the ropes working as a paid employee on the campaigns of John Kerry and Obama. I’ll be he is really impressive. He knows the ropes OK!!

It’s a test of patience to carry on in the presence of these psychos. Truly, it needs a sense of godliness, otherwise the psycho mindset will swallow up the normie mindset.

Some of the policies Buttigieg supports:^[6] are.

• Affordable abortion and the right to it for all women who choose to murder their child.
• The Equal Rights Amendment: Enlarge and strengthen anti-discrimination protections against gender and sexual identity-based discrimination (thus leading to criminalizing dissent; compelling businesses and churches to support what God calls an abomination). Includes "safe schools legislation." Combating those who are defined as mistreating homosexuals. Includes fighting against "the overrepresentation and mistreatment of LGBTQ people in the criminal justice system" (the higher crime rate among that demographic). Focusing on improving "the health and well-being of LGBTQ youth, parents, and families." (All of which could extend to attacking those who are considered to be harmful to the psychological well-being of such). Protecting LGBTQ asylum seekers while supporting LGBTQ human rights around the world.
• Working with "religious leaders, tech companies, and other influencers to reduce hate and extremism in our homeland," "groups that use forms of domestic extremism."
• Growing national service programs to foster unified community and tackle "critical national and global challenges" from "climate adaptation to supporting disinvested American communities and neighborhoods", etc.
• Gun Control: establishing a nationwide gun licensing system. The use of "Extreme Risk Protection Orders" since "two-thirds of all gun deaths are suicides." Holding the gun industry accountable for the misuse of guns by owners.
• Legalize marijuana and address the harmful effects of its criminalization.
• Abolishing the death penalty. End mandatory minimum sentences for certain offenses. Eliminate the private prison industry.
• Universal health care: promoted as “Medicare for All Who Want It.”
• Reparations policies for Black Americans and closing the racial wealth gap "income disparity").
• Education: advocates zero tuition for middle-income families at public college; free public tuition affordable for lower income students, combined with a large increase in Pell Grants that provides for basic living expenses.
• Boosting teacher pay, beginning with Title I schools.
• Funding national investment in affordable housing construction. Ending homelessness for families with children.
• Paycheck Fairness Act: forcing hire companies to reveal who and what they pay based on gender, and to pay, and promote women fairly.
• Raising the minimum wage to $15 and strengthen overtime protections. Paid family and medical leave. Extend pay and benefit protections to uncovered workers. Invest in high-quality child care and early childhood learning programs (which could foster homosexual indoctrination).
• Giving labor unions "a powerful seat at the table."
• "Climate Change:" treating "Climate security" as a life and death issue for our generation.
• Implementing "a Green New Deal with all available tools including a carbon tax-and-dividend for Americans, and major direct investment to build a 100% clean energy society." Includes, "Decarbonize transportation and industry; Commit to the Paris Climate Agreement and collaborate with other countries to increase all our goals;" "Convene state and local leaders for an agreement on community-driven carbon reduction;" "Prepare our military and disaster response agencies for the security threats of climate change."
• Foreign policy, "reinventing institutions of international engagement to address 21st century challenges," "fundamentally rethink our foreign policy." Includes making climate security as a key basis for diplomacy.
• Comprehensive immigration reform.
• Automatic voter registration. Voting rights for the formerly incarcerated. Expand early voting.
• Replacing the Electoral College with a national popular vote.
• Overturning Citizens United and Buckley v. Valeo (which ruled that statutory limits on campaign spending were unconstitutional), if necessary by constitutional amendment
• Advocates the District of Columbia having a House member and two Senators with voting power. Puerto Rico statehood if its people want it, and immediate representation in the Electoral College.
• Restructuring the Supreme Court so that ten members are confirmed in the normal political fashion, with the other five promoted from the lower courts by unanimous agreement of the other ten.

"Security" is a major theme of his position page, being mentioned 27 times, from Climate security to economic security to security from intimidation, while the effects of The Equal Rights Amendment would use intimidation via penalizing and prosecuting individuals or business such as in good conscience refuse to be complicit in affirming homosexual relations, imposing economic sanctions or worse on such.^[7] Such attacks on the security of those of religious conscience has been seen under the implementation of the European Union equality law.^[8] - https://www.conservapedia.com/Pete_Buttigieg#Policies

(correction) He learned the ropes working as a paid employee on the campaigns of John Kerry and Obama. I’ll bet he is really impressive (sarc). He knows the ropes OK!!

[HiTech RedNeck]

Well, rule number 1 is don’t panic. Greater is He who is in us than he who is in the world.

We’re not here to do world better. We’re here to do heaven.

[Georgia Girl 2]

Spit Bume is a moron.

[seawolf101]

Kill babies but end the death penalty. Makes no sense whatsoever.

[boycott]

He enjoyed defining our morals and values are in the townhall meeting. He tells us what our values are over and over.

He needs to be told that he does not speak for me.

Pete Buttigieg 'the most impressive candidate,' maybe since Obama, Brit Hume says

In other words, another unqualified dolt who will make progressives swoon and may tempt moderates. Don't scoff at Hume - he's pointing out a realistic threat to the Trump presidency. A nation capable of electing Barack Obama, the most leftist president in recent memory, is capable of electing anyone.

[The_Media_never_lie]

So, he’s an actor. And he cons people

---

Yep, and he speaks platitudes and bromides, unchallenged by the press. Chris Wallace was his cheerleader: "he got a standing ovation".

What they don't tell you is that the audience was hand picked and Butti probably had the questions in advance. Remember, Fox News rewarded Donna Brazille with a job after she gave Hillary the debate questions in advance, so Fox thought it was just fine for her to mislead the public.

[changeitback440]

looks like a squat cobbler to me

[Secret Agent Man]

Fag Buttigieg - the Rainbow Glitter candidate

[The_Media_never_lie]

Hey Brit, How about you go on the Mark Levin show, a show your RINO and liberal cohorts refuse to go on, and tell Mark how impressive Mayor Pete is. I dare you.

---

Mark has just written "Unfreedom of the Press". These commie newsreaders should go on Levin's radio show to defend their integrity.

[patriot torch]

Obviously Hume is not a student of history. It didn’t end well then either:

Genesis 19 (KJV)

24 Then the Lord rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone and fire from the Lord out of heaven;

25 And he overthrew those cities, and all the plain, and all the inhabitants of the cities, and that which grew upon the ground.

26 But his wife looked back from behind him, and she became a pillar of salt.

27 And Abraham gat up early in the morning to the place where he stood before the Lord:

28 And he looked toward Sodom and Gomorrah, and toward all the land of the plain, and beheld, and, lo, the smoke of the country went up as the smoke of a furnace.

[lewislynn]

Hume is ticked that Trump said FOX is veering left

And he knows that we know Trump is always right...That's what really pisses him off.

[dodger]

The US is not ready for a Gay President yet.

Obama ... (if not Buchanan)

[PGR88]

I read somewhere this Buttkrieg’s “husband” has a life-size image of a jar of JIF peanut-butter tattooed on his leg. I’m not joking.

Tell me these people are not insane.

[patriot torch]

Obama/Biden 2008
“aid for all”

Biden/buttplug 2020
“aids for all”

[bigbob]

Fluid...ick.

[dowcaet]

The hell with conventional wisdom from these Swamp dwelling media hacks. Every one of us Freepers know that there will be a good many Democrats who will not vote for a gay president. My parents are Democrats, but they’re Catholic, pro-life, and not fond of gays. Don’t tell me they’re the only Democrats like that. There are millions of them who will see Mayor Pete and his husband and say hell no to that in the White House if he becomes their nominee!
