Former South Bend, Indiana Mayor Pete Buttigieg has repeatedly said those who support President Donald Trump are racist. CNN's Jake Tapper on Sunday asked Buttigieg if he regretted making those comments.
"Republicans have been seizing, including in a new Trump ad, a statement you made that 'Anyone who supported this president is, at best, looking the other way on racism.' You've also said that on my show," Tapper explained. "That's almost 63 million Americans who you're painting with a pretty broad brush. Do you regret saying that at all?"
Buttigieg didn't hesitate before he responded.

Ironic that the candidate who should be most sensitive toward bigotry is actually the worst offender.

How about the MLK concept of judging people by the content of their character and not the color of their skin?

I guess maybe I AM becoming a bigot. I find myself thoroughly detesting democrats running for POTUS, chairing Congressional committees or holding any other positions that provide them a modicum of power over my life.

Clueless. What does he hope to accomplish? Pandering to blacks? Its not going to work. He'll alienate more voters than he will gain. Terrible strategy, and good news for Trump.

Quite interesting that Butt is both how he defines his world and how 63,000,000+ other people would define him for other reasons.

Plenty of blacks and latinos voted for Pres. Trump in 2016 (and more will in 2020) - is Petty Pete calling them racists too? What an incompetent moron.
I have said for a while now that democrats have extremely low standards for their candidates.

Mrs bootygig, your party started and fought and lost a Civil War to preserve the institution of slavery. Your party created institutional racism to preserve its political power after it lost the Civil War; just like you’re doing now, trying to create an Other that is not deserving of rights. Your party is fake through and through, the party of The Narrative to fool those unable to think with all the facts. Sexual identity is just another fake narrative to create a Name Caller and an Other. You, mam, are just a tool.

South Bend must be so proud of themselves by electing the first pervert mayor. It's always about being "first" with the demonrats, not competence. What's he done for South Bend? Nothing that I ever heard of.

Based upon his public performances, I'm confident he spent his entire junior high career locked in his locker.

I'm reading this article and thinking that we all know that Bootycheg is a pandering idiot and the people that he is pandering to, think he is right. How sick is THAT? The left is totally demented and filled with hate.

He probably wants to say that we are homophobic but - in some kind of convoluted way - he does not want to emphasize his homosexuality too much - so he switches to the tried and true "racist".

Don't try to debate him, or them, they have no desire to listen or debate.
They have an objective, and that's to divide people, including their own Democrat party. They need to peel-off enough Republicans to win the WH.
But, the real prize, for them, is keeping the House. If they maintain the House Majority, they can keep the investigations going.
And, hopefully take the Senate simply to block the continued judicial nominees being put on the Federal bench, but also to keep investigating Trump.
But, if they lose the House Majority, the Republicans can start investigations into their impeachment scam, and finally complete the investigations into the Mueller scheme too.

Dems play that tired, torn "racist" card when they have no other argument to offer, which is most often the case for them. The card is supposed to signal that you're a racist and therefore anything you say is invalid, end of discussion,.
