It’s a reasonable bet that Pete Buttigieg will try and run for the Democrat presidential nomination in 2028 so he can get back in government and finish the job of fixing those darn racist roads.

Naturally late night “comedians” like Stephen Colbert and Jimmy Kimmel have been doing their best to give Democrats positive exposure. Such was the case on the soon-to-be-ending Late Show with Colbert. Buttigieg had this to say, unchallenged of course:

Is that so?
The most recent time that claim was put to the test, Kamala Harris and Tim Walz lost every swing state, not to mention the “popular vote” that the Democrats used to like to cite.
