Pete Buttigieg is dropping out of the 2020 presidential primary race, a senior campaign aide told CNBC.
The Indiana Democrat waged an unlikely campaign that saw a little-known mayor overpower governors and U.S. senators in the race for the party nomination. (snip) But the one-time candidate for chair of the Democratic National Committee ultimately failed to sustain his campaign’s momentum, and ran into difficulty attracting the support of black and other minority voters.

Why am I not surprised. However, he did have more government experience then Obozo which is saying a lot considering Obozo was a U.S. Senator.

He's not dropping out, he's suspending the campaign. Which means he still has his hand out begging for money. Good riddance. Now go back home and be a good wife.

Being gay and a Rhodes scholar is not unique enough. We already had a gay president, sandwiched in between a Bush and a Trumpster, and we had a Rhodes Scholar in the president who couldn't keep his pants up around young women.

He dropped out at the request of Joe Biden, who promised to name him Secretary of LBGTQ Affairs and emissary to the Vatican for anti-Christian doctrine.

One must admit, it was brave for the young homo to for the first time in his life go "out the 'in' door" rather than the other way...

Ten bucks says he ends up on Bloomberg's payroll or ticket. Either directly or indirectly, I'll bet Bloomberg paid Buttigieg to drop out. That's the Bloomberg way.

One by one the wannabe's are dropping like flies. Time to go home Pete and make dinner for your husband and be the best wife you know you can be. You are like the modern Rosa Parks doing things for the white gay community as she did for straight blacks back in the day. You can just get in the back of the limo instead of the back of the bus.

Bloomberg paid off his campaign debt, bought him a summer house (like the Clinton's did for Bernie), and bought him Mad magazine as a parting gift. All for an endorsement,

Maybe he lost hope in getting the Chick-fil-A endorsement.

Mayor Pete found out that the low information South Carolina Democrat voters who are still stuck on the liberal Democrat Plantation are not willing to vote for a young gay man; but are happy to cast their votes for an obviously corrupt old guy with diminishing cognitive abilities, essentially because he was the first Black President’s Vice-President. How does that stack up in the liberal Democrat’s politically correct identity politics game book?

Bernie's love for Cuba is what he envisions for the USA. The first shot by demonrats is getting rid of the 2nd Amd and the right to have a firearm. It's the same tactic every country run by a despot does. Remove firearms and you have complete control.
