Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg appeared on ABC's "This Week" on Sunday morning to address Joe Biden's reelection prospects.

When questioned by Stephanopoulos about a poll indicating Donald Trump's advantage on key issues such as the economy, inflation, and crime, Buttigieg defended Biden's economic achievements, stating, "President Biden deserves more credit for the historic economic results that he’s delivered."

Buttigieg emphasized the importance of effectively communicating these accomplishments, stating, "Credit doesn’t accrue unless you go out and take credit and explain how these things were achieved." He expressed enthusiasm for Biden's recent State of the Union address as a platform for highlighting these achievements.

The contrast between Biden's State of the Union and Trump's rally in Rome, GA was stark. While Biden's address received a lukewarm reception from the public, Trump's rally garnered significant attendance and enthusiasm. Notably, Biden faced disruptions from pro-Hamas protestors during his event, further highlighting the differing reactions to the two political figures.
