When Pete Buttigieg comes for someone, he doesn’t carry a sledgehammer…he wields a scalpel.

He is sooooo good. Worth learning from, you can bet I will look for Republicans benefiting from a problem and call them out.

In fact, I’m gonna start looking now. My dim-witted Congressmen will be first to hear of Mayor Pete’s wisdom.

what is going on — but he articulates so damned well and crystal clearly. He is a gifted young man for sure.

Lots of hyperbole in the subject line.

Nobody was cut in a million pieces.

I cut and paste the tweet language as it is presented. The obvious point of the post was to have people see the video.

Another slogan that fits: “cruelty is the point.”

Dear God, is THAT what we’ve come to?

Is THAT who we are?

I’m just young enough to think I might make it to a time when they’re all in the highest federal offices. And wouldn’t that be a thing to see?

Oh, a face to face debate -- with enforced rules (aka, microphone on-off switch) -- with DeSatan would be epic.
