Pete Buttigieg joins #MorningJoe to discuss Donald Trump's potential withdrawal from the September debate, suggesting Trump is afraid to face Kamala Harris. He highlights the contrast between Harris' campaign, which he says is about "us," and Trump's campaign, which he argues is centered solely on Trump.

"Tough talk is this guy's calling card. And now there's this extraordinary show of weakness... he agreed to this specific debate, on this specific network, on this specific date, and now he's pulling out. It shows that he's afraid."

    "They wanted Joe to drop out, now they're mad Joe dropped out."
  • Narcissists become very confused and angry when their simplistic 'perfect' plan for success interrupted by a factor thst is beyond their control.

    Trump against yet another prosecutor 😂
  • All right guys! I'm 62, and my wife is 63 and we registered to vote today for our very first time. Hopefully Don the Con has encouraged more people like us to register to vote. Lets keep him OUT. It may take every single vote we have to keep him from turning us into another Russia.

    Tough talk? You mean spewing falsehoods and beign a bully without any real context to addressing the issues and questions asked at debates?
  • He's used to saying false statements and bullying people as his tactic. Now he's got nothing left.
  • @LPnerd
    I hope she picks this guy for her VP. OMG he's so freakin' SMART!
  • Tough talk???!!! His language is derogatory, insulting, denigrating, and a constant effort to escalate the inciting of violence against anyone he considers a threat to his massive Narcissistic ego by ppl he has radicalized to do the dirty work, just like any other criminal that wants to keep his distance from those that get caught doing it on his behalf.
  • He's afraid of facing a prosecutor without having the judge in his pocket.....

    Vote for the people who have our rights and freedoms at heart Vote for the people who are qualified experienced candidates that care about ALL humans.💙 Harris 💙 Vote blue all the way 💙
  • Raise your hand if you will not be voting Trump 🙋🏽‍♂️
  • Pete is a truly brilliant analyst. Trump could care less about policies...it's always been about tearing down his opponent in any way possible and nothing more.
