Former South Bend, Indiana, Mayor Pete Buttigieg has surged in the polls in the past month.

With former Vice President Joe Biden dropping below far-left presidential candidates such as the unapologetically socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders (Vt.), and the almost equally extremist Sen. Elizabeth Warren (Mass.), Democratic voters seeking a more moderate alternative are setting their sights on Mayor Pete.

But are Buttigieg's policies actually moderate? Not even close, Glenn Beck said Thursday on the radio program.

"[Pete Buttigieg] wants people to see him as a moderate. The mayor of a Midwest city in a red state ... and he's going for the middle, even though he is not a moderate candidate in any way," said Glenn.

Here are just a few examples of where Buttigieg stands on the issues:

Supports late-term, partial-birth abortion

Eliminate the Electoral College

Buyback program for assault weapons

Raise the federal minimum wage to $15/hour

Expand Medicare

Decriminalize illegal immigration

Pay for infrastructure through changing taxes on corporations, the wealthy

Study reparations

Legalize marijuana

Increase existing taxes on upper-income Americans

Cancel some student debt

Don't use tariffs to pressure countries
