Pete Buttigieg joins Nicolle Wallace on The Best People for a wide-ranging conversation about President Trump’s second term, the damage he says it is doing to America’s standing in the world, and what it will take to rebuild trust in the country’s institutions.

Buttigieg gets into a push to change the Supreme Court pushing for more justices. He discusses what could move officials to “reunite with their conscience,” confront wrongdoing, and stop rewarding conduct they know is wrong.

Plus, Buttigieg takes on what he calls the Trump administration’s “grotesque grift” and “naked corruption”; criticizes Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth’s handling of Iran and calls for Congress to demand answers; and explains why world leaders are increasingly worried that the United States is no longer reliable.

In this episode:

*Buttigieg on restoring America’s credibility abroad
*Why he says life is worse under Trump
*The moral and strategic crisis facing the country
*His argument for changes to the Supreme Court
*Why Democrats need to be about — and for — something
*His reaction to the Kimmel and Colbert moments, and what powerful leaders in other jobs can learn from them
*Why Buttigieg continues to appear on Fox News
*The role of attention, celebrity and “star power” in Trump-era politics
*His criticism of Marco Rubio and the administration’s leadership
*What makes this a make-or-break moment for American democracy
