Summary
Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg urged Democrats to stay focused and avoid being consumed by outrage over Donald Trump’s return to prominence.
Speaking to young Democratic officials, he emphasized re-engaging with voters through personal connections rather than relying solely on social media, calling for a return to pre-digital campaign strategies.
Buttigieg also pledged to defend President Biden’s achievements, warning that Republicans, including Trump, might attempt to take credit for them.
He cautioned Democrats against being paralyzed by shock tactics and hinted at remaining active in politics, though he withheld specifics about his future.
While I dont like Pete…
If we’re looking for someone to sabotage an elected government, you can do a lot worse than a McKinsey man…

Definitely don’t want to hand him the keys in 2028, but fighting fascism makes strange bedfellows
But probably the least shady shit McKinsey gets up to, is getting paid a shit ton of money to tell CEOs that the right thing to do is layoffs and increase executive bonuses.
It’s never the right answer, but it’s usually the one the executives paid to get, so they can say “this wasn’t our choice”.
He’d make a great republican, but there is zero reason for him to ever have a position in the furtherest left option voters have.
