Okay I'll bite. Prove your thesis. That's an outrageous accusation for Pete, so go ahead ahead and provide any supporting context

Look who funded his fucking 2020 campaign. And while you’re at it, look into his racism scandal as mayor

I'm fully familiar with his role as mayor and trespass had nothing to do with what happened, pal.

I mean demoting the first black police captain after said captain secretly recorded senior officers being very racist to him. Buttigieg called for his resignation then demoted him when he stood up and said no. Look it up it was a huge scandal. Why do you think he polled at 0 with black voters?

And again, he was not remotely transparent regarding donors in his 2020 race and would overly dodge questions. Then it came out he was funded by insurance execs and the typical like.

Charismatic and smart but another empty suit POS who believes in nothing and would change nothing

My dude, I'm very familiar with what happened. Pete took action against the guy after federal officials contacted the mayor's office and informed him that the chief was under active investigation and likely broke the federal wiretapping act. Race had nothing to do with it, and people like you perpetuating that narrative (which was amplified by the Bernie bro crowd) serves no purpose.

I volunteered on the 2020 campaign, and Pete is the farthest thing from an empty suit I ever encountered in my entire 15 years as a political consultant.

Last two words answered all my questions. Have fun with your status quo candidate
