Mayor Pete has more chief executive experience than the mayors of Phoenix and San Antonio.
It's not just about a city's population.
South Bend - Strong Mayor system
Phoenix - Council/Manager system
San Antonio - Council/Manager system
Strong mayor: The city council serves as the city's primary legislative body, and the mayor serves as the city's chief executive.
Council-manager: An elected city councilwhich includes the mayor and serves as the city's primary legislative bodyappoints a chief executive called a city manager to oversee day-to-day municipal operations and to implement the council's policy and legislative initiatives.

Wow! Trump says Mueller probe was an 'attempted takeover of our government'
President Donald Trump railed against special counsel Robert Mueller's now-completed investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election on Wednesday, calling it an "attempted takeover of our government."
"We can never allow this treasonous, these treasonous acts to happen to another President," Trump told Fox News' Sean Hannity, in his first TV interview since Attorney General William Barr summarized the principal findings of Mueller's report in a memo to Congress on Sunday.

It's been a long day and I'm getting a headache.
