The only person who has been doing this consistently throughout his tenure as Secretary of Transportation is Pete Buttigieg. He has revolutionized getting the message out whether it be going out to every major transportation related and government funded project and making sure his visit is filmed and available to the media. He has written the playbook for how to get the word out to the public on what their government is doing for them.

That is correct Mary. However the coverage of Pete Buttigeig was maybe a few seconds of coverage on legacy media. If Pete Buttigeig would have platformed his visits on a consistent thread that would have been the way to go. I think he was really good at taking on Fox where he had more air time to push back. Love him !!

Pete was brilliant on Jubilee 25, debating 25 undecided voters with clarity, empathy, and precision. The pace was intense, but he connected with their concerns effectively. We need to engage more on platforms like this to reach not only undecided voters but all voters.

Hi Pattie, I will definitely watch the video tomorrow. I missed that.

Hi Pattie, just watched this Jubilee with Pete. This made my point exactly when Pete was talking to the older gentleman about manufacturing saying he didn't see it. The Democrats missed that by miles for not getting that all over social media. I also feel that there was a good chance some or most of the younger voters sat this one out. They had zero passion about any of it.
