Is Pete Buttigieg the Real 2020 Threat to Donald Trump?

“He reminds everyone of their favorite grandson,” Democratic chair in Polk County Sean Bagniewski told The NYT.

John Grennan, the Democratic chair in Poweshiek County, Iowa, told The NYT Buttigieg reminds older voters of the son “they’d want to have,” and Pulitzer Prize-winning editor of northwestern Iowa’s The Storm Lake Times Art Cullen said older voters are “impressed with his brains” because he comes across as “polite.”

“I have to think that some older voters see Pete as the son they’d want to have — very smart, respectful of traditional institutions like the church and the military, and relentlessly cheerful and optimistic about what America can be,” Grennan said.
