Pete Buttigieg Explains Why There's 'Even More' To Trump's Racist Debate Lie
Huff PostLOADING ERROR LOADING “There’s even more to it than demonizing immigrants, although that’s obviously part of what he’s doing,” Buttiegieg told CNN’s Kaitlan Collins. Buttigieg told Collins that Trump doesn’t want Americans to discuss political issues including “how he demolished the right to choose” in the U.S. during his administration. “The last thing he wants us to do is to talk about his record or his agenda so what he wants us talking about is whatever crazy nonsense he can thrust into the center of the internet and the media conversation,” said Buttigieg, who said the “distraction technique” isn’t harmless. The father of a boy killed in an Ohio bus crash involving a Haitian immigrant driver also spoke out earlier this week, calling on “the hate” to cease and politicians to stop using his son’s name “as a political tool.” He said he wished his son was killed by a white man so an “incessant group of hate spewing people” would leave his family alone. He continued, “The purpose is to do something so outrageous that we have to talk about it, that journalists have to go in — if for no other reason than to run it down and debunk it when it’s false — and to try to suck up all the oxygen into that so that we’re not talking about his profoundly unpopular policy agenda, Project 2025, and all of the failures of his actual time in office.” Go Ad-Free — And Protect The Free Press The next four years will change America forever.
