Pete Buttigieg Compares JD Vance With Mike Pence: At Least 'Pence Was Polite'
“JD Vance is one of those guys who thinks if you don’t live the life that he has in mind for you, then you don’t count,” the transportation secretary said.
Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg compared Donald Trump’s running mate, Sen. JD Vance, with Trump’s former vice president, Mike Pence, during his speech Wednesday night at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago.
After criticizing Trump, Buttigieg pivoted his attention to the former president’s running mate.
“And don’t even get me started on [Trump’s] new running mate. At least Mike Pence was polite. JD Vance is one of those guys who thinks if you don’t live the life that he has in mind for you, then you don’t count,” Buttigieg, a Democratic presidential candidate in 2020, said as he made comparisons between the two. “Someone who said that if you don’t have kids, you have ’no physical commitment to the future of this country.”
Pete states the obvious. I think I know where he'll be placed in the Harris administration, and it will be fun.
I’m guessing Secretary of State. He obviously has a ton of future potential, and any lower position undermines that. What’s your guess?
He could stick with the Department of Transportation.
The department has been making big policy changes that will include large spending budgets. Building the programs being discussed is going to take a lot of political effort and would give Buttigieg decent political power in the short term.
You also have Harris using Buttigieg like Biden did politically, so it isn't like Buttigieg is being kept out of the political spotlight.
You're right, he needs international experience, but IMO thats aiming too high. I would say UN Ambassador. That job is not only cabinet level, but has perks.
... Was he?
I'd say he was just a coward
Everything is relative
He answered questions without constantly attacking other people openly and insultingly

Wikipedia about this sourceThis guy needs to go win a federal election if he wants to have an opinion at this level. His only claim to fame was winning a local election in a college down and ratfucking Bernie.
He's not going to go away, but if you haven't won at least governed, or house or senator, you don't get to play at this level. Conservative Democrats seem to live this guy because his identity gives him a pass afar his conservatism.
I think he will be the official Booty Judge
