        I shall never forget as long as I live. Katie Porter or AOC would be better choices.

          He’s a milquetoast centrist moderate who will champion the same neoliberal policies that led us to this current state of crisis in America. He was also a proud McKinsey consultant and I think he worked with the CIA. During the election I thought his main issues were just not enough experience, though (he was just mayor of a small town basically). Social issue wise he’s better than Trump still. Anyone is, though lol.

      Agreed. Pete in the debate would have been a dramatically different situation. I’d happily watch him fact check all day long.

      We should start a campaign to write him in to force the Dems’ hand.

      I like Pete but his name is a problem. It has the word butt in it, and is pronounced like “booty judge.”

      Great guy, unfortunate name.

        I always thought it was pronounced “Boot - e - jij”

          Yeah. Maybe hanging a lantern on it would work. Do a campaign commercial with Sir Mix A Lot or something.
