Pete Buttigieg Leaves CNBC Trumper Joe Kernan Speechless

Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg did what he's good at. Well, he's good at a lot of things, but pushing back on misinformation on not-so-liberal-friendly shows is probably his best trait as he calmly takes apart their talking points. I haven't seen Pete on Fox News lately, have you? I'm sure they got tired of Buttigieg besting them. So, now it's CNBC’s resident Trumper Joe Kernan's turn.

"I just -- the reason that some of these numbers stay where they are is because it just seems like instead to have actually owning some of the issues that we have, instead of acknowledging that the President maybe has lost a step, the administration keeps saying, don't believe your lying eyes," Kernan said.

"No, respectfully, I think congressional Republicans are saying, don't believe your lying eyes, which is why they're polling at about 15%," Awesome Pete Buttigieg said.

He bought receipts!

"We have economic numbers -- is it my lying eyes that under Joe Biden we have had the most job creation in American history?" he continued. "Is it my lying eyes telling us that unemployment and inflation are both below 4% and have been that way for the longest time in who knows when? Is it reality or is it spin to point out the fact that manufacturing jobs are up under this President and were down under the last President. These are matters of simple fact."
