Buttigieg urges preparation for post-Trump era - Monadnock Ledger-Transcript Pete Buttigieg urges Americans to prepare for life after Trump, urging them to work towards equality, opportunity, and personal freedom.

”A day will come, sooner or later, when Donald Trump no longer dominates American politics. I’m asking you to picture that day in order to ask all of us a very challenging question: Then what? Then what? What are we going to do?”

~Pete Buttigieg - Concord, NH

Do you have capability to label messages as junk? If so, that sends all coming from the same address to a junk folder you’ll never have to see.

Just re-read the thread…email.

are they coming by mail or message?

Block them. I have to block tons of candidates I’ve never heard of. If you ever contribute to *one* candidate you get on the list that gets passed around every election cycle.

Never fear. The think tanks are thinking and Pete is a very strategic thinker.

If you listen closely most every time he speaks he mentions what has to be done when Trump is gone. Just like he did in the clip above…they are planning their moves for day one and beyond.

He deleted it! 😂

Candidates ask him to come…he’s the most requested Democrat for endorsing & appearing with a candidate.

Are you suggesting they should stay at home and *not* help *every* Democrat in the country get elected.

Pete see that as his primary job now and rightly so. you have an issue with that? Tough.

Politicians can’t seem to please everyone. I’ve seen tons of posts blasting Kamala for not speaking on every issue that arises.

Pete is endorsing local Democrats for midterm elections all across the country. Was in NH for 3 days & now is in Vegas stumping & rallying for candidates. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

You didn’t !!! 🤣

Bernie Bros out there thinking they’re still relevant.

Anyone reading the discussion can see that she was committed to a diversionary tactic which did zero to save face.

Totally embarrassing for her, but she couldn’t back out gracefully.

I’m beginning to think the reason Vynxx got so defensive is that she *really* didn’t know how polling or aggregators worked and was proven wrong about AOC’s polling.

Lashing out was her only defense and that just made her look more inept. Social media is hard to navigate for many.

So sorry you’re have a mental breakdown because you were proven *wrong* about AOC’s polling.

Accepting defeat is tough.

Hope you recover from your spinout soon.

RCP is *not* a pollster.

You label people as dimwits…self identifying while looking in the mirror?

Gawd almighty.

RCP average is an *aggregate* of recent polling from all over the country.

How can you not know that…

Oh.

:::stomps other foot for emphasis:::

Never says what you want…

When you want it said…

If only he would use the exact words, spoken at the exact time, in the perfect tone that you demand.

Dammit.

:::stomps foot:::

Pete was being interviewed on two programs post SOTU and would be asked about his response to Trump’s remarks.

He was doing homework by watching.

You are the one that needs to learn how to search the internet to document what you claim.

Here’s an average of polling for possible Democratic 2028 primary candidates.

There is a federal law or SCOTUS ruling like Brown vs Board of Education that mandates transgender kids can play sports?

Hmmmm…

Sorry that reading is so difficult for you.

Perhaps that’s why you don’t know much.

What would your recommendation be for handling a situation when a parent walks in the coaches office with concerns?

Do you deduct from his comments that he’s against trans kids in sports?

Implications where he recommends working with parents of athletic cis girls compassionately?

What are the negative implications of that for trans kids?

I see that as approaching the subject as to *not* alienate anyone in order to promote participation of ALL kids in sports without conflict.

They are still pissed off because they FAFO.

He did *exactly* what they wanted, but the problem is…

They don’t know squat about politics and had no clue what would happen after they wanted him gone.

They found out.

He’s still around.

…dropped out. Read that again.

They hate him because he *dropped out* 😂. You can’t make this shit up.

They trended #DropOutPete for *weeks*

They even learned the High Hopes dance, recorded it, and blasted it out telling Pete BYE.

When he endorsed Biden they got pissed off….

4/

Concentrated on the first states to hold caucuses/primaries

Won Iowa and tied for delegates in NH…Bernie’s neighboring state.

He was so successful that Bernie supporters blame him to this very day for causing Bern to lose the primary to Biden.

Only because he …

Pete and Chasten were knee deep in school loan debt. His breakout moment was a town hall on CNN hosted by Anderson Cooper.

He was trying to get enough donations to even qualify for the first debate. Accomplished that…wrote and published his policies…spoke to crowds small & large.

2/

Pete Buttigieg entered the Democratic 2020 primary in April 2019.

He had to teach the nation how to pronounce his name.

He had 4 staffers and zero $.

Entered a race with 20+ candidates, many who brought millions in war chests with them or were full-fledged millionaires/billionaires.
