Pete Buttigieg on JD Vance | Real Time with Bill Maher (HBO)

The Honorable Pete Buttigieg gets real about Donald Trump's newly-minted running mate, JD Vance.

Wow, it's really rare that Bill lets a guest talk for more than 1 or 2 sentences at a time.

[bradhombre]

Masterclass. He roasted the heck out of Vance, Thiel, Pence and Trump in 3 minutes and he did it without shouting, lying, or vulgarity. Efficient, insightful, engaging.
Whether you're a pro-science/technology, a libertarian, a conservative Christian, a blue-color or rural voter, pro-democracy, pro-civil rights or anti-corruption, he gave you a reason to not support Trump, and he gave everyone a reason to not trust Trump or people in Trump's orbit.

Say what you want about Pete, but in my opinion he would absolutely shred Trump in a debate.

[deecee]

The most dangerous person to debate is someone who stays calm but kills you with their intelligence….PB is that man!

[Futuretense]

That was the most classy shade throwing I've ever heard lol

[kevingibson]

The hands down best communicator in politics. If he runs again he has my vote.

[onYaFace]

that shade towards Vance was smooth LMAOO

[CatFurniture]

Pete Buttigieg is the best “explain like I’m five” person I’ve ever heard. He cuts right through to the heart of the matter. And he’s funny, too.

[jamesdixon]

We deserve this man. He's here. Are we too stupid to elect him? We probably are.

[cgodfrey]

If Pete Buttigieg were heterosexual, he'd be leading the polls by 15 points

[unclebrian]

Pete is as fair and honest as it gets. he’s good at taking the entire situation and simplifying it for anyone to understand. Fox News stopped inviting him on. Lol

[Seth-ffdn]

The more I see Pete Buttigieg, the more impressed I am. This guy should be VP or run for POTUS in the future. Damn bright and articulate. I great communicator.

[Graybeard_]

Please let Pete be our president in my lifetime.

[bethhardesty]

why is our country too dumb to accept this man as POTUS or VPOTUS

[TLhike]

When pete said “i was packing for Afghanistan while donny was making reality tv…. Mic drop

[mattmcevedy]

Imagine what he would do to J.D. Vance in the VP debate?

[krikitito]

I’ve always liked Pete Buttigieg. He’s well spoken, charismatic, rational. This is a guy I’d could get behind as president.
I remember when he served in Iraq he tried to connect with the locals learning their language.
You can tell he has a bright future.

[MsBlushing]

He ate this up. At first I was like...he's gonna be so robotic, but then he sold me. We have talented folk in this party, I know THAT.

[wyfctru]

I would vote for him in a second. He's such a good person. Rare air when it comes to politics.

[williamrippley]

I sure would enjoy watching Pete debate JD.
