People Are Calling Out America After Pete Buttigieg's Response To Kamala Harris

People Are Calling Out America After Pete Buttigieg's Response To Kamala Harris Saying She Wanted Him As Her Running Mate In 2024
It doesn't look like people have faith in America voting for a woman and a gay man.
Pete Buttigieg thinks Americans deserve more credit — and that they'd vote for a Black woman and a gay man on the same presidential ticket one day.
If you haven't heard, former vice president Kamala Harris said Gov. Tim Walz wasn't her top choice for running mate in the 2024 election.
In an excerpt from her upcoming memoir 107 Days published by the Atlantic, Kamala revealed that she was eyeing the then-Secretary of Transportation to be her vice presidential nominee. She wrote that Pete "would have been an ideal partner — if I were a straight white man."

"But we were already asking a lot of America: to accept a woman, a Black woman, a Black woman married to a Jewish man," Kamala wrote, according to the Atlantic. "Part of me wanted to say, Screw it, let's just do it. But knowing what was at stake, it was too big of a risk."

Buttplug’s tenure at Transportation should have been enough to make him untenable.

Nothing was at stake. You were obliterated anyway.

I'm so tired of the identity politics.
The good thing about straight white men- you never have to wonder who they have to pander to. They get to govern "for all".

Most sane people wouldn't vote for an Indian or a gay person for office. ...and there's nothing wrong with that.

Close to half the country voted for this in 2024.

It's complicated.

She is right.
I am not voting for an Indian posing as a black, and I am not voting for that queer.
She nailed it. I wouldn't have voted for either one of them if they had the ghost of Reagan on the ticket with them.

We did see pictures of her with her Mother (dot not feather), but her Jamaican Father was "estranged" and apparently unphotographable. Why was he never interviewed etc. when Biden first picked her as his protection against being kicked out for the beginnings of dementia?

He took a mth + of paternity / maternity leave in the middle of the country's biggest transportation clusterfrick in history.

Why couldn't she decide who her running mate was going g to be?
Posted on 9/22/25 at 9:06 am to djmed
There is no difference between Pete Buttinplay and Tim Wallz. One is out and other is in the closet. The Dems would just have one more thing to cry about when they lost if they picked PB

She could have chosen but it would have been supremely stupid.
Like McCain choosing Joe Lieberman when he was already having trouble with the conservative wing of the party. He could have chosen him but would have flopped worse than he did with Palin shoring up the base.

America has already elected a gay man President but the majority of the country was either too dumb or not researched enough on the candidate to even realize it.

She would have lost no matter who her running mate was.

I guess kackles in her perpetual drunken fog already forgot that we had the first black gay president already??
