Pete Buttigieg appears on a popular right-leaning "bro podcast"

"You know, companies can do multi-billion dollar ideas but a trillion dollar idea like inventing the internet?" Buttigieg.

"Right," said Schulz.

"That requires basic research and that's the kind of thing the government's supposed to do among many other things," added Buttigieg.

"Requires basic research? What does that mean?" asked Schulz.

"Yeah, by basic research I mean things that are so fundamental that you actually don't know for fifty for a hundred years if they're going to have a return," said Buttigieg. "They might never return."

I like it. Kinda the new way to reach those who ignore anything Democrats have to say. Education is key to waking up the uninformed masses.
