When I tell you the number of Midwesterners that are historically Republican or moderate or independent who RESPECT his intelligence, TRUST his judgment, and ADMIRE his character, you gotta believe me. I live in the soccer mom/pickleball capital of the world!

Team Pete Buttigieg Community!
We just passed 4000 members!!
CONGRATULATIONS!
🎉 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Thank you for being here and boosting Pete Buttigieg in all his current and future endeavors!
Show me another VP candidate who can make the points, give VP Harris the credit and the kudos, and shove it back on Trump all in one breath!
The consummate, talented defender. VP would make her first best decision with Pete Buttigieg.

BREAKING: Pete just exposed Trump in real time:
"If the election is about the candidates' plans for our lives, Trump will lose. Which is why he will do everything he can with inflammatory and divisive language to change the subject. Kamala's not going to let him"🔥
Pete is uniquely qualified to speak ACROSS THE COUNTRY to red and purple areas who have been proven to be receptive to his ability to listen and connect.
He’s known, he’s vetted, and he’s ready to GO.

@PeteButtigieg
With 99 days left till Election Day, it’s time to chase down EVERY vote
Pete gave up the chance to win the nom in 2020 for the better chance that Biden could beat Trump;
Joe gave up the chance for re-election for the better chance that Harris will beat Trump.
Choose the best chance to win big, in 2024 and in our future.

Pete Buttigieg will make the best VP candidate, and the best VP in office.
As a candidate, he can go out on day one, on TV, on campaign stops, shooting down the MAGA lies, taking the media to task, controlling the narrative for VP Harris, allowing her to uplift and inspire.
@yashar
@jamiegangel
They should pick Pete Buttigieg. The most nationally known, a huge bunch of enthusiastic supporters who will work to elect this ticket! He will add support for down-ballot candidates across the country and Midwest. He's the most effective communicator in this media environment.
The people want Pete Buttigieg.
@KamalaHarris
I can't imagine any other person that would have your back like this guy. The country needs him. You need him. Together we can.

Yesterday, doing my
@PeteButtigieg
work in a coffee shop. Gentleman working next to me for an hour finally turned & said “I’m a Republican but I CANNOT vote for Tr*mp. Your guy is the only one who intrigues me. I don’t have time to talk but do you have somewhere to point me?”
Executive experience:
Pete Buttigieg, as the Secretary of the Department of Transportation for over 3 years, is the “CEO” of over 58,000 employees and a budget of $100 BILLION!
He’s respected, he’s exceptional, & yes, LOVED.

Deb from FB:
“Buttigieg would be an awesome asset to the ticket and the country. This is not a time for the party to play it “safe” - we have to show we are ready to offer our best and brightest to save our country. Be bold and BELIEVE in the new future where ALL are equal!”
More than 100 million raised to elect
@KamalaHarris
since
@POTUS
endorsed her. Less than 36 hours.
Completely unprecedented. Something’s happening here….
🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
As people around the state celebrate 4/20 today, I want to be blunt in recognizing that the purchase of legal marijuana products through state-licensed facilities not only means a more safe product, but it also means more tax dollars for schools, roads, and communities.
I am not going to feed Russian bots today. I am going to celebrate that Pete's rally in KC tomorrow has been moved to a bigger venue.
Because it is all for the Kansas Democrats. The DEMOCRATS. The ones we are all working to elect and save democracy.

"When I was 13, I sat in the basement staring at my dad’s gun cabinet thinking that’s the only way out. I was gay & thought I was the only one. We have one candidate who is saying to that child, ‘I’ve got your back’ & another saying, ‘Pull the trigger’.”
When people like the bigoted MTG attack
@PeteButtigieg
and the audience cheers, this is another thing they are upset about - that President Biden’s Cabinet looks like America.
Others have tweeted a clip of Rep. Jim Clyburn saying Pete Buttigieg “would make an outstanding VP!” but here’s another of him praising Pete again Sunday on Meet the Press! See the next tweet for the quote.
[He also praised Walz & briefly mentioned Shapiro.]
#HarrisButtigieg2024
“Other potential VP picks including AZ Sen. Mark Kelly, PA Gov. Josh Shapiro and KY Gov. Andy Beshear have also gone on the offensive…
“But none have the lacerating force of Buttigieg’s relentlessly unflappable delivery.”

Catch flies with honey. Stay positive. We are doing WELL.
Don’t elevate the others by coming at them or getting in their mentions. Just keep talking about our awesome Presidential candidate, and our favorite VP choice!
We are Team Pete!
Pete Buttigieg to a T: “It’s got to be someone who also will be a global leader essentially for our party for a long time in the things we stand for. I think electorally is part of it, but… there’s a sense of responsibility and weight that they have.”
#HarrisButtigieg2024
NEW: VP Harris has told top advisers that she’s looking for a running mate who can “balance the ticket,” someone who is more of a “governing partner,” & effectively “someone with executive experience at the highest level.”
My latest on not just who Harris is looking at but how.
Democrats, get serious about down ballot.
@PeteButtigieg
has traveled the country meeting & boosting our down ballot BIL partners, led the Conference of Mayors, & endorsed some of our best legislators in 2020.
Pete as VP will deliver the attention needed!
#HarrisButtigieg2024
#HarrisButtigieg2024
is the way for Democrats up and down the ballot to win swing states & districts!! Pete is the most popular and well known among swing voters!
I don’t know about the rest of
#TeamPete
but I am ready to make this campaign my second “job” for the next several months and possibly *years.* God help me but this group of supporters and this candidate is giving me life.
A fascinating dynamic/contrast playing out in the veepstakes: As other camps and parties leak details of travel for interviews, Buttigieg world is remarkably buttoned up, saying absolutely nothing.

not having enough passion or emotion. He cares deeply. DEEPLY. About PEOPLE. It’s viscerally obvious. To everyone who sees him in person, or who bothers to press “play” on a video.
@Chasten
I want you and your family to know that I support and love you in any way that I can, and I know so many people do the same. Thank you for making your experience knowable and emotionally accessible to the public, who will not fail to be moved. And we will all be better off 💙

Wanda from FB:
“It’s the right ticket & leans into her ‘we’re not looking back’ talking point. Not to mention he’s the only candidate nationally vetted, comes with his own army of volunteers & he would be a fantastic VP. I hope she is bold enough to do it.”

CBS News Poll - Iowa Democratic primary (change from last):
Biden 22 (-7)
Warren 22 (+5)
Sanders 21 (-5)
Buttigieg 14 (+7)
Definitely a tight race with Warren and Buttigieg both climbing as Biden and Bernie fall.
Damn shingles shot keeping me rather useless today.
Worse than the COVID shots!
But thank you modern medicine. I’ve seen people with shingles and I’d rather not have that either, TYVM.
It was a hot day in July 2019 when Pete’s campaign started their mid-sized grassroots fundraisers - in Kansas City, MO.
There were Democrats, Independents, Never-Trumpers. Gen Z, Millennials, Gen X, Boomers.
He will ADD to the ticket. EVERYWHERE.

Ngl my objective is to blow every place else that has a Pete rally out of the water. Going for so many attendees they have to change the venue a second time. I want Kansas on the national news again, this time for Pete! Bc I’m competitive like that 😁
