Pete Buttigieg: “[TPUSA] going to college campuses is kind of the equivalent of the way I feel when I go on Fox News.

@flexghost@mastodon.social Secretary Buttigieg has more of a chance than Mayor Buttigieg did at president.

I would still prefer Lina Khan as president of the second Trust-busting era than any McKinsey consultant.

@flexghost at this point?
No....if you thought turnout for Trump Harris was low,wait til a gay man is on the ballot.
This electorate is fucking pathetic....they deserve a homicidal traitor.

@flexghost I've been sitting close to a lot of American tourists on European trains lately. Retired, well-heeled, keen to explore the world. But boy do they talk a lot of ignorant shit. I'm afraid the USofA took a wrong turn with its education system a long time ago. And we are reaping the results now...

@flexghost yes, he's one of many possible, but a whole lot can happen in two years. It's possible that we'll cycle through a series of front-runners as both parties have done in the last few elections when out of power.

@flexghost He was my guy in 2016… I like him a lot but at this point I think there’s an assumption that he’s too polarizing. I think it’s wrong, but it will haunt his campaign.

[davidnielsen@mastodon.social]

@flexghost if he runs as AOC’s VP, then he might make it after she has had 8 years to fix shit.

[shadsterling@mastodon.social]

@flexghost despite all his good qualities, I think his chances are pretty slim. I might rather see him go for a senate seat or governorship where he has better odds and use that to build recognition and respect with a broader base - and hopefully undercut any attempts to direct hate at him as was done with Clinton. Really depends on who else is in the primaries tho, and how much the second Trump term motivates people to vote out all Republicans, especially anti-gay and habitual republican voters

@flexghost

No. Corporate neoliberal Dems are toast.

[pattyhanson@mastodon.social]

@flexghost If he funs, I will vote for him, and I will be proud to do it. My vote wouldn't be because "he's the better of two bad choices" or the "lesser of two evils". He was and still is the best candidate the Democratic Party has had in a very long time.

[manvsxerox@mindly.social]

@flexghost I would love it for one reason.

Trains. He would bring back the trains.

That is all.
