“Buttigieg Warns Trump-Panicked Democrats, ‘We Cannot Be Mesmerized’”

Pete Buttigieg urges Democrats not to get on Trump’s rollercoaster . . . by which he means off their phones and out in communities engaging in associational party building.

From the NY Times:

“Mr. Buttigieg suggested that Democrats spent too much time online at the expense of the sort of human interactions that defined campaigns before social media and influencers became central ways to communicate political messages. ‘

We’ve got to figure out how to take online conversations offline at scale,’ he said.”

I could not agree more, and I also agree with his call to avoid the roller coaster.

“We will be inclined to react with shock by some things that are done precisely with the intent of shocking us, we need to move very quickly through the shock.”
