Beto on Buttigieg: 'I think he's terrific'

[crazytown]

David Siders, Politico: Pete Buttigieg has had kind of a very meteoric, maybe quick rise, and speaks about a lot of the same issues you do, about going to rural areas in the Midwest. I wonder if you had any thoughts about his candidacy, maybe you might be pulling from the same pool of voters?

Beto: I’m just going to tell you I like him a lot, and I like the way he’s approaching voters, the seriousness with which he answers questions, the thought that he's put into it. I think he's terrific. I really like him.

1. How Refreshing.

5. 'I think (she's) terrific'

Exactly the same as Elizabeth Warren said about Kamala Harris. Some Democrats put Party first

[Celerity]

2. Beto is great as well, in my top several picks if Pete doesnt make the cut

Buttigieg, Harris, Warren, Beto, and (if she enters) Abrams

11. I like all of them, and Inslee and Castro, too. We have an abundance of great talent

to choose from this time around.

12. Yeah, I saw Castro on Bill Maher.

He's pretty good.

3. Nice to see one candidate *not* knife another in the back. I hope we see more of this.

4. That's very smart of Beto.

I wouldn't expect Beto to be negative, esp. now at the start of the primary season.

Plus, I expect he means what he's said about Mayor Pete.

6. Beto doesn't engage in negative campaigning.

I admire his ability to stay above the fray and his ability to work with others (including Republicans) to pass legislation. That's a sign of a good leader who knows when to compromise and when to hold firm for what is important.

I agree with Beto that Buttigieg is impressive and I would support him if he becomes the nominee. Either one of them will be a great asset on the ticket in 2020.

7. I like that!

9. We have some classy candidates.

At this juncture, trying to narrow it down to one (for me) is totally impossible.

[No Vested Interest]

10. No need to narrow it down at this time.

We can all Listen. Learn. Before we Lean into a specific candidate.
Much can happen in the next 12-15 months.

14. Two white guys I wouldn't mind as a team:

Buttigieg/O'Rourke
or
O'Rourke/Buttigieg

They'd be fabulous!

[SKKY]

15. Just for optics sake, I would like to see Buttigeig as VP, and watch him debate...

...the current VP. Because you know, given who our current VP is, the debate will turn to religion and that would be epic.

[nevergiveup]

17. Absolutely!!!

[Indygram]

18. I really love how positive Beto is, he reminds me of Obama so much

He's so genuine and sure does know how to tie in policies with real life examples the audience he's speaking to can actually relate to. He can unite this country again.

[BannonsLiver]

19. He's taking the right approach and it fits his brand.

By the way we had a message removed list in this thread. Jesus people, what is controversial or wrong or irritating about what he said?

On edit: it might have been the pro Putin/Assange troll from Thursday night.
