Andrew Schulz's Flagrant with Akaash Singh
Pete Buttigieg on Trump Tariffs, Taxing Billionaires, and Republican Gays

Left, right, or center, they're not watching, like, television cable news all the time, right? And I think my party has this illusion that we're the savvy ones about tech. And 15 years ago, we were, right? Like, we were on to things like Facebook and social media, probably a little more than the right was, or we were there first.

But at least since 2016, the Twitter election, like, that has been true less, right? Yeah. So I think we need to be prepared to go everywhere. And that's always been my style. I mean, largely because I had to when I was first running for president. I would talk to anybody who would listen, which at first wasn't a lot of people, and I would go to any place that would have me.

But to go back a little bit in what I was saying, I do think we also need to revisit what it is we're offering. Because if it sounds like what we're offering is... Let's just go back. This isn't working out. Obviously, the terrorists are hurting people. He's consolidating absolute power. Like, lots of things are bad about this, which is true. Therefore, let's go back to that.

So I think a lot of what they have to say will get more and more traction in the party, especially on the economic piece. This idea that you have a lot of regular people in regular life getting screwed over by the way things work. And if we don't have better services and fairer taxes, we're just never going to get through that.

Well, first, I think we need to be more disciplined and louder about that economic message. To be clear, we will be advancing policies that make sure you are economically better off. What does that mean? That means that you can, you know, the one thing I think people do give us a lot of credit for is healthcare, but there's more to do on that, right?

We're going to make sure that there is a fairer tax code, like not just standing against the tax cuts for the rich that he's about to push through Congress, but actually having a tax code where there's not a benefit to a corporation like moving billions of dollars overseas, where there's not a benefit to kind of hiding your worth, where you're not better off basically with wealth than work, which is where the tax code is right now.
