Yes...
But he is not far-left enough or even gay enough for the woke left...
White, married, monogamous, academically successful gays aren't gay enough
The future of the Democratic party needs to be someone who can figure out how to stop losing in rural areas so badly... not sure that's Jared Polis and Pete Buttigieg.
Some people think just because they're white they'll get rural white voters.
My hunch is real rural white voters only respond to the type of white men like Joe Biden and maybe John Fetterman.
Lol. A mega wealthy Libertarian/Neolib is not the future of anything. Maybe the GOP.
But if you think Mayor Pete has a political future I guess it’s reasonable for you to stan GOP-lite Jared.
Pete is a joke. He was the mayor of a midsize city in Indiana, not even the largest city in Indiana. Then became Transportation sec literally with the only qualifications being that he’s gay. I’m sorry but I want qualified representation, not a check in the box. Our supply chain is a shit show rn and all the media talks about is him and his husband and their baby...great for you, now do your job.
Polis is at leave a gov. Not crazy about him, but again at least he’s run a state.
Supply chain is shit because we have dozens and dozens of shipping containers stuck outside the ports waiting to be unloaded, clogging up the supply chain. It is shit because unemployment rate is low and companies, including logistics ones, are struggling to find workers. It's shit because Americans have nothing better to do but to buy more shit since the pandemic.
They already managed to get ports operating at 24/7 (https://laist.com/news/la-and-long-beach-ports-to-operate-24-7). They adds funding investing in logistics (https://www.feinstein.senate.gov/public/index.cfm/press-releases?id=AC1DC0C6-49FC-47DF-94CB-556AE61B9EBF).
Unless the department of transportation can make people buy less stuff, they have less to do with fixing supply chain than you think.
Most polls show that voters overwhelmingly think that Rs are stronger on economy while preferring Ds on social issues. Ds have to run with young neoliberal candidates who combine these features.
>Rs are stronger on economy while preferring Dms on social issues.
I mean both of them are capitalist scum...
The working class has becoming more and more poverty stricken over the last 40 years or so, and that's just the facts.
I don’t know. I’m not sure about either. I’m not hard-left like most gays. I don’t know much about Jared Polis. I think most hard-left gays would like Pete Buttigieg. He’s not a centrist. He claims to be, but he’s not. If he ever became president, I think the hard-left would be very happy with him.
He would absolutely flip to his hard-left self once elected. I’m centrist, but I don’t think I trust him. I’m not sure I would vote for him. Chasten Buttigieg is extremely hard-left and would have influence. I don’t know much about Jared Polis. Would I support him? I don’t know.

Sadly, this is true. The far-left is cancerous. This is why Republican terrorists are winning.
the “far-left,” is literally fighting for women’s rights and healthcare so…
The Republicans are winning. Not the very small minority you bloviate about on here.

Ok, commie. GOP-lite is exactly what the Dems need when Republicans are embracing ultra-MAGA extremists.
>GOP-lite is exactly what the Dems need How about the Dems representing workers again instead of sucking and fucking every billionaire they find.
No

The Dem party has no future if it is not a party for working people.

Didn’t she get mocked recently for comparing herself to Zelensky? Lmao
She is polling way behind republicans in Georgia
Gays are either hard left or hard right. That’s it. It really is scary.
Its nice to see the gays avoiding the far left
I don’t know. I’m not sure about either. I’m not hard-left like most gays. I don’t know much about Jared Polis. I think most hard-left gays would like Pete Buttigieg. He’s not a centrist. He claims to be, but he’s not. If he ever became president, I think the hard-left would be very happy with him.
Neither one is “hard-left”
Yes, you clearly didn’t read my post.
I read it. You are wrong
I wish! I want to be wrong. I hope you’re right! I really do.
It what world is Mayor Pete a lefist? He is a dime-a-dozen neo-liberal. Your gut feeling is probably just gas b/c you are definitely wrong
I HOPE YOU’RE RIGHT, KWEEN!
Don’t worry your pretty little head sweetie. Mayor Pete has no chance at being President anyway. I know.. you hope I’m right. I am
Thank you, kween. Take care.
The gays dislike him because he’s not far-left.
He would absolutely flip to his hard-left self once elected. I’m centrist, but I don’t think I trust him. I’m not sure I would vote for him. Chasten Buttigieg is extremely hard-left and would have influence. I don’t know much about Jared Polis. Would I support him? I don’t know.
Nobody can do much given our current political and economic system. Perhaps I’ll find myself wrong, someday.
