Vance sat down with Maria Bartiromo on Sunday and tried to flip the script on the ongoing fallout surrounding the Trump administration’s handling of the Jeffrey Epstein case
Is Buttigieg not a neoliberal?? As I recall, neoliberalism is characterized by austerity, de-regulation, tax cuts, and privatization.
He certainly seemed pro-austerity and pro-privatization back in 2019-2020 with his milquetoast “Medicare for All Who Want It” talk. And he is from McKinsey after all.
Yep, that’s more or less why I said I don’t put him on a pedestal. But as DOT secretary, he recognized the need for collecting tax dollars and using them effectively, plus things like the East Palestine, Ohio train derailment resulted in him directly, loudly, publicly raising awareness to the need to regulate these essential industries and sectors more stringently to prevent future disasters.
I think he’s learned a lot in the past 5 years. I’m open to people having the ability to learn and grow if they’re showing actual evidence of it, and he is imo. I can’t hold his McKinsey roots against him forever. I worked at Walmart for a few months nearly 20 years ago, and that has very little to do with who I am now.
