6. Define "establishment," please.

I would also like to know why someone who has never held a job in his adult life other than as an elected official is not a member of the "establishment."

2. After the bros have been calling him "Mayo Pete"?

And this?

The people in the crowd were angry, and “Chapo Trap House” wanted them to stay that way. The five hosts of the popular socialist podcast wanted everyone to know they had all been lied to. About everything.

The media they consumed was fake news aimed to distract them from the only war worth fighting: the class war. Politesse, civility, even pleasure — those were tools of the neoliberal oppressor. The right answer is rage.

“That joy,” the Chapo co-host Will Menaker said to the crowd gathered in Iowa City on the eve of the Iowa caucus. “That’s good but it’s not as good a motivator when you’re really going to war as spite.”

“Let the hate feed you,” the co-host Amber A’Lee Frost added as the audience roared.

And it does. Especially toward other Democrats.

Supporters of former Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr. are “gelatinous 100-year-olds.”

Former Mayor Pete Buttigieg is “a bloodless asexual.”

“The gayest thing about him is he descends from an ethnic group that’s like a little toy dog,” Ms. A’Lee Frost said.

4. Translation:

Senator Bernie Sanders: Mayor Pete. I want your voters.

8. Translation: "Mayor Pete, after insulting you, sneering at you

as a member of the hated "establishment," and making fun of your sexuality, we'd love it if your supporters would join our campaign."

5. I share Pete Buttigieg's opinion of Bernie Sanders.

[George II]

7. All the others congratulated him for his candidacy and thanked him, Sanders trolls his supporters...

If he gets 5% of Buttigieg's supporters he'd be lucky.

So, Buttigieg went to Selma to honor John Lewis today and did the right thing by dropping out. Sanders went to LA for a rally and begged for Buttigieg's supporters.
