Pete's deer in the headlights moment

I haven't read much on here about that moment in the debate when that gal was going for his jugular but I've been thinking about it a lot today.

I think he should have answered something along the lines of yeah, that's the problem, it's illegal. And, whether you or the President know it or not, we are a nation of laws and not of men and I swore to uphold the laws of South Bend Indiana and the The United States of America. Period. Full stop.


Whatdaya think?

Amy, this is disappointing.

Ms. Klobuchar distorted comments made by Mr. Buttigieg about the impeachment trial.

Fact Check: Ms. Klobuchar distorted comments made by Mr. Buttigieg about the impeachment trial.

Ms. Klobuchar: “But what you said Pete as you were campaigning through Iowa as three of us were jurors in the impeachment hearing you said it was exhausting to watch and that you wanted to turn the channel and watch cartoons.”

This is misleading. Ms. Klobuchar was likely referring to remarks made by Mr. Buttigieg recently on the campaign trail. But he was criticizing Senate Republicans and urging voters to not “give in” to that sense of exhaustion.

“It can be exhausting,” he said of the impeachment trial at one January event in Iowa. “A process in Washington where the Senate GOP is telling us this is going to be a foregone conclusion. It’s almost designed, I think, to make us feel so beaten down that you want to just pick up the remote and change to cartoons because it’s punching you in the face all the time.”

“But if we give in to that, of course, that’s how cynicism wins,” he continued. “And the great thing about being alive and being eligible to vote in the year 2020 is that this is our opportunity to send a different message.”

Kris Krispy is obsessed with attacking Pete.

Every time they go back to him he turns the question into a Pete attack.

Interesting.
