In reply to the discussion: Pete, what were you thinking? [View all]True Dough
(17,255 posts)and there are two points that I'll make:
1) You are inferring a whole lot, you actually use the word inference yourself.
2) You acknowledge that you once spent part of your life with a spouse who, like Pete Buttigieg, was "Ivy League educated, well-traveled, brilliant, erudite and witty." I'm sorry to hear your ex-husband happened to be a misogynist. I can understand how that would make you be guarded against others who you suspect might be like-minded. However, just because there are parallels between your former partner and Mayor Pete, it does not make them the same people.
Time will certainly bear this out. If you're right and there's a trend, it will be impossible for it not to come to the surface. In the meantime, it's premature, and unfounded, to accuse Mayor Pete of misogyny.
primary today, I would vote for: Undecided
