Buttigieg on Whether Private Insurance Remains Intact Under His Plan: ‘To Be Honest, I Don’t Care’
Grabien News ^ | 02/19/2020 | Tom Elliott

How so? Neither Bernie nor Lizzie care, either. Although, Lizzie allowed as how she might have to factor in a transition period.

I think it’s the arrogant, dismissive response which will hurt him.

That is, if any of the candidates brings it up. Otherwise it will quickly vanish down the leftist media memory hole.

Let’s be honest here. If BootyJudge weren’t a pillow-biter, no one would be considering him as presidential material. He was an unsuccessful mayor of a third-tier city. The only thing people on the left like about him is that he kisses his butt-buddy on stage and attacks Christians for being judgmental.

True only if the mainstream media reports what he said, and plays the clip on the evening news. Which they won’t.

buttplug is an arrogant, selfish a**hat. Being such an “elite” fascist loser is no way to go through life. He deserves obscurity at a minimum.

true enough

unfortunately for him, that aint enough of the electorate to win a national election.

I flatly refuse to believe that he won the iowa caucus. I live here, and there aint much energy for his campaign here. I live in a major urban area,,,major by iowa terms, anyway.

he is a media creation, per your points.

Bingo, he’s just an affirmative action candidate, the gay Obama.

Unfortunately for him, he’ll have to face a real opponent that is willing to fight, unlike Obama.

He’s not worried. You can bet “Medicare for all” will cover that and more.

Kind of like a reporter asking Lenin, what do you think about the concerns of the Six Million small Farm owners who believe their property will be confiscated and they will surrounded up and killed or starved?

Lenin: Honestly, I just don’t care.

The Fairy Princess from South Bendover will make the perfect little running mate, running around in heels, fishnets, and a french maid outfit, complete with feather duster, distracting the hoi polloi from the foolish gaffes by the presidential nominee (a.k.a. loser).
