    Pete may be a ghoul in a human skinsuit but he sure as hell is a good public speaker.

    I've never seen anyone make complete non-arguments sound so sharp. In this clip he basically just says "but Pence also bad" yet the fox clowns are absolutely stunned.

    He always sounds like he's saying the most important and meaningful things until you actually think about it and realize he actually said "The shape of our democracy is the issue that affects all other issues" or some shit like that.

      Are you shitting me? Dude's got less charisma than my fucking cumsock. How low is the fucking bar in America? Dude wouldn't last a minute in the shithole that is the house of commons.

        he's just doing an obama impression almost every time he speaks, lacks any originality

        And in twenty years there will be another one of these things, except the next one will have won an essay contest with an essay on Buttigeig being great and will have moved rightward of Buttigeig to run for president.

      “The shape of our democracy is the issue that affects all other issues”

      We shit on this a lot and Pete deserves it, but this statement isn't as vapid as we make it out to be. If our democracy is in bad shape, and it is!, then that's going to impede the will of the people. But...impeding our will is exactly why Buttigieg exists.
