Just yesterday, we brought you part of a recent interview that Pete Buttigieg did where he was basically fantasizing about new ways to tax Americans.
Now there is more from the same interview where Buttigieg talks about abolishing the Electoral College and packing the Supreme Court and then goes on to say that he can’t believe anyone sees this as radical.
It looks like Mayor Pete is planning another run for president. The messages he is sharing in these interview clips are for the far left voters of the Democrat base. That is who he is talking to here.
He wants to let them know that he is one of them.
Transcript via Real Clear Politics:
Former Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg told the “Diary of a CEO” podcast some of the changes he would make to America’s constitutional political system, listing four fundamental reforms that he says people should not consider “radical.”
“People forget, the best part about the Constitution is its ability to be amended!” he said, listing:
– Eliminating the Electoral College and deciding the presidency through a nationwide popular vote –
“I still can’t believe that anybody considers this radical,” he said. “I think people haven’t thought through how much benefit would come from that. If we did that, there are so many votes in red and blue states that you couldn’t ignore anymore. If you were running for president as a Democrat, you’d have to go to Texas. Even if Texas were still going to vote mostly for Republicans, you’d have to turn out every Democratic vote you could in Texas. I just think we’d be so much better off if a Republican and Democratic candidate were competing over Texas.”
– Reforming the number of justices and operating structure of the Supreme Court –
“I would have term limits, more justices, and some process that makes it less partisan who the justices are. There are some different ways to do that. The one I think is most interesting is called the balanced-bench proposal.”

Buttigieg is very unlikely to get the Democrat nomination in 2028. He polls horribly with minority voters.
He will stay in the race however, hoping to get chosen for the VP slot. That’s his best bet.
