After Donald Trump's recent address to Congress, Pete Buttigieg criticized the president's position, highlighting his small popular vote margin compared to previous presidents. During his appearance on The Late Show, Buttigieg playfully indicated Trump's obsession with 'size' by stating, 'I wonder how he feels about something that important being that small in his case.' This jest aligns with other Democrats, including President Obama, who have noted Trump's fixation on crowd sizes. Buttigieg described Trump's speech as confusing and indicative of the administration's neglect of pressing economic concerns, reinforcing recurring GOP actions against progressive policies.
Let's remember, despite what you heard tonight, [Trump] came in with just under 50 per cent of the vote. He won, I'm not disputing that. But the smallest popular vote margin since Nixon.
I wonder how he feels about something that important being that small in his case.
To be smaller than Tricky Dick, gives one pause.
The State of the Union, I think, is really confused, but it shows that the current administration isn't focused on important economic issues.
