Pete Buttigieg says it’s time to put a military family in the White House. The former mayor of South Bend, Indiana, and one time Democratic presidential candidate was in Melbourne and West Palm Beach today, stumping for Joe Biden and Kamala Harris- and talking with veterans.
Buttigieg spent seven months in Afghanistan as a US Navy intelligence officer. He said former Vice President Joe Biden understands the sacrifices made by military families.
“He knows what it is to hug a loved one goodbye, in this case his son, as he goes off on a deployment, not to mention a series of policies that’s actually going to support military families and veterans, improve the VA, make sure that we’re doing a much better job of supporting active duty families who were moving around a lot,” said Buttigieg.
A recent poll by the Military Times and the Institute for Veterans and Military Families at Syracuse University found younger veterans favor former Vice President Biden while older veterans back President Trump.
Buttigieg also talked about his concerns about the potential threat to marriage equality and other issues with a more conservative Supreme Court. He said the court needs to be more stable and less political.

SFC (Join to see) - It means that Biden (whom I am referring to) and the Democrats (sounds like a boy band) don't give a rats A about the military and a strong defense...they have stated they will cut it by cutting manning and programs weakening our military. Just because his son served doesn't mean he supports the military...plus he received numerous draft deferments as well during Vietnam. He doesn't care about the military.

MSG Stan Hutchison He tells you what you want to hear but will politically stab you in the back to advance his career. Evidence of that when he was mayor of South Bend.
