1. Well done Pete.

3. K & R

4. K & R!

5. LOL! I don't think this picture is playing out the way Trump thought it would

[NewJeffCT]

12. No

especially with the looks on the faces of the people on Donny's side of the table - they look beaten down

[RAB910]

15. Yeah that new General looks like he wishes he was in combat instead of sitting next to Trump

[malaise]

6. The Con will rue the day he posted this pic

Bwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!
What a metaphor for the female leader of a co-equal branch! Keep walking Speaker Nancy!!

9. Mayor Pete just gets it on so many things.

I would be happy to work for him and vote for him if he is our candidate in the general. I think that's a long shot and don't expect it, but then I'd never ever heard of Clinton before the debates back then, so it is possible. He's #3 on my personal primary list at this moment in time.

[amuse bouche]

10. I don't have a #1 but deep in my heart, I sure would love

a young, strong, super intelligent candidate like Pete.

[lark]

11. All excellent points and why he is my #3

[True Dough]

13. 2020 may not prove to be his time to become POTUS

but he's such a promising young rising star. Pete Buttigieg has a prominent role to play in Democratic politics for many years to come, no doubt ascending to the country's highest office someday.

[bdamomma]

20. He is good

and he has promise just like Beto, these men are so articulate and knowledgeable.

[FakeNoose]

18. I believe he's the future of our Party

... however he's still a longshot for the upcoming election. Mayor Pete continues to impress us with his acumen and leadership. Next time out maybe he'll be Senator Pete instead of Mayor Pete. He is definitely one to be watched.

[lark]

21. A rising star for sure.

How far will he fly? I think it'll be exciting to watch, whatever the trajectory.

[calimary]

29. I've liked him for awhile now. He's really starting to grow on me.

As Biden stumbled, could Pete be the breakout star?

[Boomerproud]

32. He is so gifted it's scary.

In a fair world this would be his time but I think he will have to be patient.

[lillypaddle]

14. K&R nt

[ismnotwasm]

16. Nice!

[Moostache]

17. K&R (n/t)

[grantcart]

19. +1 proud of our candidate, proud of our speaker and

I am figuratively standing up and applauding my choice for President because he knows how to use the word "literally" correctly, a rare event in our time.

[packman]

22. Look at that pix - didja notice

Everyone has a name card before them except for Trump - I guess someone didn't know how to spell "Supreme Exalted Dipshit" .

[IndyOp]

24. I thought it was probably SOP for the President not to have a name banner -

but I like your explanation better!

[calimary]

30. Traitor works too. Rather perfectly.

[DBoon]

37. No

They didn't have the Cyrillic font available

[spooky3]

40. Lol! Nt

[gordianot]

23. Releasing this picture is the only good thing Trump has done since he started his Occupation.

An image for the ages.

[bronxiteforever]

25. Kick and recommend. Brilliant!

[FM123]

26. The decision to tweet out this picture of himself says everything....

He is so far removed from reality that he can not see how ridiculous/insane/evil he is.

[BigMin28]

27. She has more balls than all those seated

On the right side of that table combined.
Thank you Madame Speaker! The people who love America stand with you.

[BlueJac]

28. K&R

[Celerity]

31. great tweet, thanks for posting K&R

[IndyOp]

33. Celerity! Good to run into you! Pete's still

marching and as long as he does, he is still in it.

[Celerity]

34. indeed! nt

[Gothmog]

35. We are fortunate to have a leader like Nancy Pelosi serving our country

[patricia92243]

36. "Pistol Pete" one talking head called him - meant as a compliment. :)

[CaliforniaPeggy]

38. She is on the right side of history--as are you, Pete Buttigieg.

[Blue Owl]

39. Yes!
