What it means that everyone ...is going after Pete Buttigieg: [View all]

This is a well-written and witty commentary on the spate of attacks on Pete, and what they actually mean. It makes sense and that's why I'm posting it.

Here's a small excerpt:

Why is everyone suddenly attacking Pete now? Because the first polls revealing him to be a front-runner didn’t prove to be outliers. Because American voters continue to make donations to his campaign. Because every time he speaks, he re-assures the nation he actually is that bright, that intuitive, that reasonable, that thoughtful, and that far ahead of everyone else in the field.

Enjoy!
