The famously viral burn "Senator, I served with Jack Kennedy, I knew Jack Kennedy, Jack Kennedy was a friend of mine. Senator, you're no Jack Kennedy" was something Lloyd Bentsen said to Dan Quayle when Quayle invoked JFK to excuse his own youth and inexperience

At the time, Dan Quayle was 41 and a US Senator (JFK was 44 when inaugurated) Buttigieg is 38 and his highest level of elected officer is Mayor of South Bend I'm amazed none of the Boomers he's running against has used that line on him

Buttigieg is kind of a boomer in spirit though. Moderate and kind of emotionally repressed. Boomers like him and kids want nothing to do with him
