Pete is a master of "let me explain your stupidity to you, but I'll be REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY nice about it"

[alanhyt]

He's great at explaining basic things to the willfully ignorant.

I love Pete Buttigieg because he has the ability to cut through Fox News lies (and insulting questions) - with almost surgical precision. The man has a way of speaking clearly that gets through to people.

[dandelan]

Watch and learn, mister anchorman. That's what you get when you try to "gotcha" a man who has gone through this probably a thousand times before... Still, his delivery was dignified and classy.

it’s sad. it’s 2023 y’all. grow up.

the man has a husband and gets the same benefits like everyone else.

Before he was Sec. of transportation, he served his country as a United States Naval officer. If for only that reason alone I would be proud to stand beside a fellow brother America sailor. USN Vietnam veteran 1966-70.

A “gotcha” question… which backfired immediately. Haven’t they learned that Pete can effortlessly destroy their talking points, like ALWAYS?!

[StarshipTrper]

I love it. He instantly respond with an "Of course not! " and proceed to explain why. No hesitation and not taken by surprise by the question. What a great man.

[johniii]

Very smart strategy of his not afraid to go on Fox. He's proving himself to the conservative audience. When he does decide to run again he will get crossover votes. He knows exactly what he's doing.

[erisghsted]

Pete is so humble, and well spoken. It cuts them that much deeper that they can't get him out of his square.

[demacto]

Well spoken as expected from Pete, and petty from Fox as expected.

[valeriag]

I don’t get why he keeps getting invited when they know he’s just gonna school them for any hate they try to give him😂😂

[nicklagace]

This man should be the President of the US. Period. He’d negotiate so tactfully for international dealings.

[latonyajefferson]

The best part is watching the host look like he was waiting for the ground to open up and swallow him whole. A classic case of "it was in this moment, he knew he sucked up".

[captaincapitalis]

I hope he runs again. I’m a Republican, but he seems to be a reasonable and well meaning dude. We could use someone who is not Trump, while also not being geriatric.

[dennisweberofficial]

He‘s one of the most well spoken politician out there and always well informed and smart. He would make a great president, I think… But I‘m sure the US is not ready for that…

[dianafromcalifornia]

Fox shows their creepy way of interpreting reality. Pete did a great job.

[MrAaron]

His composure was exemplary; I am nearly speechless.

[kekakid]

If you come for Buttigieg you better have your stuff together bc as Fox has learned he will correct you…love this!!!
