Watch Pete Buttigieg demolish another Fox News host

Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg has a knack for perfectly breaking things down into digestible soundbites. But the way he humiliates Fox News personalities every time might lead one to believe that it’s some perverse kind of right of passage for the right-wing media outlet.

Tuesday’s contestant was Lawrence Jones, whose attempt to press Buttigieg about President Joe Biden’s handling of the GOP-created debt-ceiling crisis of 2023 backfired. 

“It’s funny,” Buttigieg responded, “Sometimes I feel like conservative media and the Republican Party still think they're running against Joe Biden.” 

“I think in any job, but especially the presidency, you want to be judged by your results,” Buttigieg continued, listing the Biden administration’s success growing jobs over the last couple of years. 

Jones then tried to float the incorrect theory that Biden was cognitively impaired when he negotiated with the GOP to resolve it, and Speaker Nancy Pelosi had to take over.
