Another Buttigieg (Boot-edge-edge) interview



I listened to this several hours ago but several things that stuck out to me:
  • Advocates for bipartisan SCOTUS expansion. 5 judges selected by the Democrats, 5 judges selected by the Fascists, and 5 judges unanimously selected by the other 10.
  • Believes we should tackle issues in our democracy first (ie voting rights, voting holiday, DC statehood (PR is more complex but they should have to say in POTUS elections).
  • Supports M4A but believes a version of Medicare should be sold on the exchange as a public option. Believes this would either force the private insurers to match those benefits or would transition us to M4A because people would prefer the public option.
@FAH1223 I don’t see how he can’t be considered a progressive. I’m naturally inclined to side eye unknown politicians who don’t list their policy positions on their websites, but he’s unabashedly progressive. From what I've read his foreign policy will be a tempered version status quo, which isn't surprising.

Everything I've read about him seems pretty legit. Two term Governor, head of the Governor's Association, former House Member, not afraid to take on Cheeto.

I am passionate about 2 issues: I want the bankers hanged, and I want this planet to survive.

I just donated to the campaign. I am a monthly donor for the warren campaign.
