Buttigieg is one of the best politicians America has right now.

Him growing a beard is a completely different thing from known bitch Ted Cruz growing one.

And a politician he is, willing to be bought in exchange for political capital.

Stealing from my comment in a different thread:

I’m still upset with Buttigieg for his pre-Super-Tuesday drop out. He joined the establishment to rally against Sanders. In doing so, he became part of what’s wrong with the party.

While I don’t think poorly of him as a person per se, he is also just another politician.

In contrast, I see folks like Sanders and AOC as real agents of change.

If Sanders and AOC aren't the future of the Democratic Party, then the Republicans are just going to keep winning. Neolibs simply aren't popular. They aren't far enough to the left for the leftists, and they aren't far enough to the right for the conservatives.
