Biden Says Top Republican Is ‘Dead’

Kamala Harris is turning to Pete Buttigieg as a key figure in her campaign strategy to appeal to “white dude” voters. Buttigieg, the Secretary of Transportation and a prominent supporter of Harris, is set to participate in a Zoom event at 8 p.m. on Monday with the group “White Dudes for Harris.”

The event, organized by Ross Morales, is described as a space for white men to confront and discuss their role in the nation’s history. According to Morales, the aim is to create an environment where these voters can support each other and work toward electing Harris as the next President of the United States.

The group promotes a sense of brotherhood and honesty, addressing the “toxic entitlement” associated with figures like Donald Trump. Morales’ message emphasizes the importance of acknowledging both positive and negative aspects of historical roles, fostering mutual respect and understanding among members. To aid in spreading their message, the group has provided a “social media kit” with pre-written posts designed to encourage others to join the cause.

Buttigieg and Harris, once rivals in the presidential primaries, now support each other in their respective roles. Following President Biden’s withdrawal from the race, Harris has become the party’s presumptive nominee, with Buttigieg and other Democrats rallying behind her. Buttigieg’s involvement has significantly boosted interest in the “White Dudes for Harris” event, leading to a surge in registrations.

As race and nationality become central issues in the current political climate, this approach by Harris reflects an effort to engage a specific voter demographic amid ongoing domestic and international challenges. The group has not clarified if individuals outside the “white dude” demographic are welcome, and a request for further comment remains unanswered.
