Mayor Pete

Anthony

"What we've seen for the past days was disgusting," Josh Hawley was speaking passionately, "Pete Buttigieg isn't a person any of us should trust with the grave responsibility of the Presidency. He's just a rich, Harvard-educated elitist who doesn't care about African Americans or working Americans. Honestly, after what we've heard from many credible people, I'm appalled that Senator Foxx here still defends Buttigieg and stays with him on the ticket."

Anthony knew just what to say. Hawley gave him a perfect opening, proving himself a poor debater like many times in the past hour. "Well, first of all, this was a very patronizing statement by the Senator. He has no right to tell me, or any other African American, who to support. We're independent and smart, and we'll support politicians and parties who we feel represent us and fight for our rights and needs! And Pete Buttigieg is just that person, in my view- despite Republicans trying to inflate facts and lie their way into painting him as something he isn't, Pete has always been very passionate about civil rights and about helping the African American community. The criminal justice plan our ticket presented will take thousands of black youths imprisoned on minor charges out of jail, and the electoral reform and anti-gerrymandering measures we're promoting will end the dirty tactics of many Republican state parties and the near-disenfranchisement of many African American communities. Senator Hawley and his running mate, Mike Pence? They've been cheerleaders for a President who promoted racist rhetoric, they're supporting voter oppression against African Americans, and make no mistake- they don't give a damn about us."

Anthony could see his rival's skin grow a bit pink as he seemed to get more and more frustrated, unable to really say anything that breaks the North Carolina Senator's wall of resolve and calmness. "I... I apologize if I sounded patronizing, I did not mean to come off that way. But while you say that African Americans shouldn't be told who to vote for, you're telling them who to vote for!"

Chris Wallace coughed. "Thank you, Senator, and we're going to end here. Now, each of you shall have a minute to give your final statements. Senator Hawley, by a cointoss, you go first."

Hawley straightened up in his seat, trying to look dignified. "I think this debate, and the rest of the campaign, made something very clear. Vice President Mike Pence is much more experienced and qualified to hold the office of the Presidency than Pete Buttigieg, an inexperienced, green elitist who has no connection to real Americans. His plans are also the best for all Americans, promoting growth and liberty, strength and independence from outside influence, and keeping the traditions and values that define us. As a Senator and law expert, I know that I can help the Vice President appoint conservative judges who'll defend our constitution and liberty, and be the best advisor that can bring fresh ideas of hope and reform. We're going to continue and Make America Great Again for people of all races and religions!"

Anthony smiled, looking at Josh like an adult looks at a silly child. "What's been going on throughout this debate is just what's happening in this election- while Senator Hawley has been doing nothing but recycling stale slogans and attacks that the American people know are frauds, I've been giving details and specific plans that we're going to implement to help the American people. Vice President Pence and Senator Hawley, who seems to be another stale face who thinks he's Jack Kennedy, bring nothing fresh, interesting or useful to the table, while our ticket promises to reform healthcare, immigration, criminal justice and the tax system, restore our image in the world, and protect the earth from disastrous environmental policies. The majority of Americans disapprove of the Trump administraiton- I promise you that while Pence and Hawley will continue the same terrible policies, myself and Governor Buttigieg will be the hope and change our country needs!"

As the Wallace started closing the debate, Anthony smiled to himself. There was no doubt who won this debate- Hawley did almost as bad as Rubio in that infamous 2016 primary debate robotic performance that sunk his campaign. After agressive campaigning and a good townhall debate by Pete, Anthony ensured their ticket will continue the recovery from that scandal.
