Buttigieg Draws Applause at Fox News Town Hall For Bashing Trump: 'Echoing the Language of Dictators

Democratic 2020 nominee Pete Buttigieg drew a strong round of applause at his Fox News town hall event when he criticized President Donald Trump for echoing the language of dictators.
As Buttigieg took an audience question about how he would handle foreign policy in the Middle East, he accused Trump of worsening the regions instability before saying we dont have to choose between endless war and completely disappearing from the world stage.
We have to decide what our priorities are and raise the bar for the use of force, Buttigieg said. What we need to do is build up, not tear up our international partnerships. American lives depend on relationships with our allies. We shouldnt can doing any of this alone. We shouldnt have to be doing any of this alone.

The more people we can reach outside of the Democratic bubble the better.
