'You could argue that it doesn’t get more different from this president than a laid-back, intellectual, young gay mayor from the midwest.”
Still riding high on increased visibility and rising poll numbers, presidential hopeful Pete Buttigieg stopped by Real Time with Bill Maher on Friday night to talk about his political positions and how he envisions ousting Trump from the Oval Office.
“The paradox here is that in order to beat Trump, we’ve gotta run a campaign that’s not all about Trump," the mayor from South Bend, Indiana, said."The more it's about him, I think folks at home are gonna be saying 'Who's talking about me?' Don’t get me wrong, you’ve got to punch back when you’re punched. You’ve got to correct lies when he tells lies, but then we’ve got to move on very quickly to how our ideas cash out in everyday life.
"Each election in many ways produces someone who is the reverse of what we just had," Buttigieg said."You could argue that it doesn’t get more different from this president than a laid-back, intellectual, young gay mayor from the midwest.” “Sometimes there’s a sense of condescension coming from our party, fairly or unfairly," Buttigieg said."A think a lot of people perceive that we’re looking down on them. If we allow that to continue, it’s going to be a real problem.”
