Buttigieg touts idea of a Harris win ‘finally’ sending Trump on his way – Washington Examiner

Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg has ⁢been advocating the notion that a victory for Vice President ⁣Kamala ‍Harris in the upcoming elections could lead to former President Donald Trump‍ “finally” stepping ⁣back⁤ from the political stage.​ He asserts that voters are seeking an end to the political division that has characterized recent years.‍ Buttigieg critiques the media’s focus⁢ on Trump’s provocative remarks, ‍arguing that ⁣it detracts from addressing voters’ real issues. He promotes Harris as​ a candidate who⁣ could restore a more ⁢civil political atmosphere, suggesting that ​choosing her represents a ‍shift towards less confrontational ⁢politics. ​Buttigieg ⁤also notes that ⁤Trump has​ already contributed to losses ⁣for the Republican Party in both the 2020 and 2022 elections, ‌and if the ​current elections⁣ result in ‌another setback, it may ‍be time for the party to move ⁤on from Trump.


Buttigieg touts idea of a Harris win ‘finally’ sending Trump on his way

Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg has pushed selling the idea of former President Donald Trump “finally” throwing in the towel after this election, as voters are “yearning” for less division.

Buttigieg assessed that the attention the press gives Trump over his viral stunts and comments could be unhelpful for voters in the grand scheme, as it takes attention away from addressing the needs of voters. He added that in making the case for why Vice President Kamala Harris is the better candidate, the Democratic Party should be pushing the idea of allowing a “more normal” Republican Party to emerge after Trump.

“A vote for Kamala Harris is a vote for politics not to be punching you in the face every day, every time you turn on the news, because we can get back to a way of doing things in this country where, of course, we’re not always going to agree, but it’s not this constant, in-your-face death match that it’s felt like, whether he’s president or whether he’s candidate,” Buttigieg said on MSNBC’s Inside with Jen Psaki.

Buttigieg suggested that Trump has already handed the Republican Party losses in both the 2020 elections, in which Trump lost his reelection bid against Joe Biden, and the 2022 midterm elections, in which the Republican Party underperformed. As such, if this year’s elections are a third strike for the former president, Buttigieg said this could allow the Republican Party to “finally” part ways with Trump.

Trump revealed in September that he has no plans to run for president again in 2028.

On Sunday, Lara Trump, the co-chairwoman of the Republican National Committee, said the RNC is focused on pushing voter turnout in the remaining hours before Election Day. Ahead of Tuesday, she and RNC Chairman Michael Whatley have worked to shore up election integrity to give voters assurance that their vote will matter.

The most recent polling data on the 2024 presidential race has shown no clear front-runner, with Trump ahead by 4 points in Arizona and 1 point in Michigan. Harris, meanwhile, is leading by 3 points in North Carolina, Nevada, and Wisconsin, and is 1 point ahead in Georgia. Both candidates are tied in Pennsylvania.
