Yes, we already knew how spineless Buttigieg is. What has this fag ever achieved in public office? I do not understand why he is even running when he has zero support in the black community. The only people who support him are the AWFLs and fellow Rainbow people.

Do democrats even realize this behavior is exactly why they are losing supporters?

Not that I feel sorry for them (because I don’t), but Dems such as Booty Judge are in a tough spot. On the one hand, the rank-and-file Dem primary voters hate Israel and are all about backing the Palestinians. On the other hand, rich Jews (e.g., the Spielbergs, Katzenbergs, JJ Abrams et al.) are still huge Dem donors and their backing could be crucial in funding a campaign.

From what I have observed many from that community are stricken with the most extreme case of cognitive dissonance imaginable. They would back him anyway.

In Gaza it is a crime to be gay. They will kill anybody who is gay. That is the side that booty juice is backing.

Dems will just go back to their policies of giving money to terrorists masquerading as victims. Biden made October 7 possible and they will certainly do it again because they are incapable of learning from their mistakes. At their very core, they are evil.

AWFL is Average White Fu$king Liberal?
I was in the military and we used lots of
short cuts for Names Like “BUFF” for B-52s.
but BUFF had several interpretations.
As did “FUBAR” unless you are part of the small
group(click) you were in, the description varied a lot.
In mine BUFF was Big Ugly Fat Fu$ker
FUBAR was Fu$ked Up Beyond All Reason.
I’d welcome other interpretations.

Ambitious Buttigieg’s got a problem:
<><>rank-and-file Dem primary voters hate Israel and backing the Palestinians
<><>rich Jews are “huge Dem donors”; their backing is crucial in funding a campaign.


A chosen few thankfully doomed to extinction.

Approximately 1.8 million Jewish adults, just under one-third
of the total Jewish electorate, live in twenty-five Democrat congressional districts.
National Profile of the Jewish Electorate, May 2020
Of the top twenty-five districts by Jewish population, nearly half are in New York — NY10, NY-3, NY-12, NY-17, NY4, NY-9, NY-6, NY-8, and NY11.

The remaining districts with Jewish populations are found in seven states including Florida, California, Illinois, New Jersey, Massachusetts, Maryland, and Pennsylvania. FL-21 has the greatest number of Jewish adults at 152,000.

With the exception of NJ-4, these districts are represented by Democrats and all but two (NJ-4 and NJ-5) are Democratic-leaning districts.


US Jews contribute half of all donations to the Democratic Party
The Jerusalem Post ^ | Updated: JANUARY 14, 2018 10:55 | JEREMY SHARON
Posted on 7/6/2025, 8:31:40 AM by DallasBiff
A new study argues that the large majority of American Jews have a deep-seated notion that being Jewish is inextricably bound to being liberal.
That idea took hold after the large waves of Jewish immigration to the US in the late 19th century, according to the study’s author, American history professor Gil Troy.

American Jewish liberalism and association with the Democratic party is showing no signs of abatement, despite many predictions to the contrary since Ronald Reagan’s presidency, according to Troy’s research, which is being published by the Ruderman Family Foundation’s Program for American Jewish Studies at the University of Haifa.

Democrats panic over Jewish voters
World Israel News ^ | 5/24/24 | Daniel Greenfield
Posted on 5/26/2024, 1:41:02 PM by Roman_War_Criminal

After tossing Jewish voters overboard to accommodate the Hamas supporters of Dearborn, Michigan, the Democrats are starting to get nervous about the choice they made.

Despite the rollout of the campaign, beginning with Senator Schumer’s floor speech blasting Israel, and various liberal Jewish surrogates, including Rep. Jerry Nadler, vocally opposing the campaign against Hamas, the Democrats did not manage to sell Jews on Biden’s betrayal.

Biden’s declaration that he would stop providing military support to Israel if it continued to pursue Hamas into Rafah touched off a major backlash from donors, like Haim Saban, from celebrities, like Michael Rappaport, who has said he could vote for Trump, and ordinary Jews.

While there’s no accurate polling of Jewish voters because there are too few Jews in much of the country to be captured by conventional polls and polls specifically surveying Jews are usually run by leftist groups, Democrats have suddenly begun to sweat the Jewish vote.

Buttigieg is a possible contender for our next president??? You must be joking. He didn’t do anything as Sec. of Transportation. I am unknown in politics, but I guess I’ll run against him.

Democrats and leftists are such wimps.

They fold like a cheap suit from disapproval by their peers instead of standing up for themselves or doing what is right.

Total cowards.

Democrats are not known for wisdom in picking candidates.

But the die hard leftists will support them anyways because they are just as evil as the politicians.

“Democrats are not known for wisdom in picking candidates.”

That hasn’t been a huge problem for them, considering that (1) RAT voters are mind-numbed robots and will vote for any RAT on a ballot, and (2) they are confident in the art of cheating which has been so successful for them over the years

They know that they have to step up their game after 2024. I hate to think what nefarious ideas they’re kicking around now for 2026 & 2028. The fact that they’re so tenacious in their grift, even knowing that they’re in the minority, is a problem for the GOP who just roll over to have their bellies rubbed.

It’s a “struggle session” (the turnabout interview) right out of Chinese history.

I do not understand why he is even running....

Gotta be the Veepstakes. Last two cycles, the Dem’s Veep was picked from the discarded trash in the primaries. You’d think that would be out the window after crashing so beautifully in November. Still, they have to pick somebody. If Newsom gets the nomination, a white dude would have to be queer as a $3 bill to get the veep call. Petey is all of that. Blacks might sit out an election with those two running together.
