Pete Buttigieg 2020 campaign megathread

[John Dule]

People care about "scripture" now more than any other time in human history. Your post is literally the falsest thing you could possibly say about the subject.

Explain this statement.

[Fritz]

So when Mayor Pete gets elected, will everyone call him "President Pete"?

One of John Shelby Spong's Twelve points for reforming Christianity is to be accepting of all people. Of course, he is considered a heretic.

There is really nothing in the Bible to be "pro-gay".

If the Bible is "anti-gay" as some suggest, that would be a good reason not to be a Christian, although there others.

Nobody cares what the bible says ... it's just some book.

What time is he speaking today for the announcement? 2pm EST? I think the event starts live streaming at 1pm.

South Bend, which neighbors the University of Notre Dame, was hit hard by the decline of manufacturing, dating to the 1963 closing of the Studebaker auto plant that cost thousands of residents their jobs.

The hulking, dilapidated factory loomed over the city for much of the past 60 years as what Buttigieg called a daily reminder of South Bend's city's past.

Buttigieg plans to give his speech inside that building, which underwent a multimillion-dollar renovation led by a private developer with help from state grants and tax increment financing from the city. The newly remodeled structure is now part of a mixed-use technology center outside the city's downtown.

Good.

The best way to win back Trump voters.

[Tender Branson]

The Buttigieg campaign has now filed officially with the FEC, dropping the „exploratory“ status.

They also expect 10.000 people today inside and outside the renovated, former Studebaker plant.

Buttigieg to speak at 2pm Eastern.

Sorry for the double post:

As a newly minted top-tier candidate, I think Mayor Pete really needs to go back to the drawing board on these Bumper Stickers. If I put this on my car, no one will have any idea what its trying to say.

Oh no why did he do that?

I like them. They're minimalistic. He obviously knows his last name is difficult for people to remember/pronounce so he just went with PETE.

Also, remember how I got my username because I was designing my own Ron Paul logos in junior high and I wrote "20 RP 12" and I thought that was so cool and everyone laughed at me?

20 PETE 20 MOMENTUM

President Mayor Pete.

[Holmes]

Nan Whaley endorses Pete.

[Bleach Blonde Bad Built Butch Bodies for Biden]

He's about to speak.

My Butti is ready to be GIEGED.

Yaass, Miss Barbra Streisand playing in the background while we wait.  More reason to support him.

[Big Boy Beto]

This rally is a disaster. Every single guest speaker bar maybe the mayor is a nobody, and they just waited half an hour in between speeches from random people in his personal life.

Thats true for most campaign launch events. Its about selling the candidate, not getting huge names that outshine the main event.

[Mr. Illini]

Love the blue and gold color scheme, an ode to South Bend and its Fighting Irish.

That's true, but the optics compared to Bernie's first speech or Officer Kamala's will show a pretty stark difference.

Who cares about that?

It's good to look good in the media... Having a good rally with good turnout will imply momentum and popularity.

(I was just saying Bernie and Kamala for an example, it could be any of them)

He’s almost as late as Obama was all the time, which is a good sign for his campaign.

[Big Boy Beto]

Steve Adler has managed to get this back on track. He's actually slightly competent at public speaking.

[Tender Branson]

Good speech already.

And the more VP Pence talks about how he hates gays, Pete will gain an additional 1% every day in the polls now ...

He will soon be at 20% in the national polls. Mark my words.

[History505]

He always likes to wear that blue tie with a white collar shirt.

Does VP Pence usually talks about hating gays?
