I'm loving Pete Buttigieg's Speech in Wisconsin. Fearlessly hopeful.

I'd love him to declare for Presidency now. Be the spear head for all thinking Americans.

He's taking questions from the audience,,,,this guy has his shit together when it comes to global macro foreign US policy and micro domestic US policy.

I hope he is considering going for higher office as he’s certainly qualified. He speaks 5 languages or more. He was transportation secretary so he knows how to get things fixed and run on time.
