Pete Buttigieg had a response to former Vice President Joe Biden's recent comment the former mayor of South Bend, Indiana, is not Barack Obama: "Neither is he." "Well, he's right, I'm not. And neither is he. Neither is any of us running for president," Buttigieg told CNN's Jake Tapper on "State of the Union."

Wow now this it’s what matters to the people? Childish
@Gnick the Gnome Not intolerant at all…Myself and my best friend/colleague who happens to be a PhD veteran and gay were just speculating earlier on why Peter Buttwiggle would have joined the military lol, and why he’s getting propped up… I love gay guys, they actually buy me free drinks when i hit the bar (stingy fckin women never do). Now dump this conniving lil weasel and go vote for Liz Warren or Bernard Sanders…..Cos if you don’t and let this lil pervy weasel take the nomination, do you have any idea what Donnie Dump would do to him?? It is no joke. So, ignore this stupid lil boy and please let him go back to being Mayor of his stupid lil town. Sanders/Warren 2020!!
@W A agreed. tone down your ad hominem. Nobody will listen to you if all you’re doing is calling Pete a “homosexual” or “perv” as if it’s some sort of scathing critique. It isn’t. Attack what matters, not what is inconsequential.
@Gnick the Gnome No man. Warren has way more smarts and aptitude than Bernard (and she kinda looks like my aunt). Bernard is well intentioned but not very smart. Together, they’d make a good pair though like some of those couples you see out there……a loud dumb dude who means well, but the woman’s running all the books for him….
Most people in this country need a real change but the billionaires have convinced them to be against their own interests
100% this. Trump supporters for example are nothing but lapdogs and voting puppets for the billionaire class and they don´t even realise it. It´s laughable…and sad.
Sanders and Trump people using Seth Riches death for Personal Riches is not going to give the American people change but its the Sanders trump way
@Jay Pay I don’t think he does either.
Not a good look to attack fellow candidates in such petty ways
Very juvinile
To be fair, he is really trying not to attack anyone but the whole interview is designed to stir up conflict between the candidates. Silly
🐀🐁
Bidens getting dirty
Susi Siebert His campaign is starting to parallel the rest of his life’s ideals.
And creepy
@Customer Service he’s been creepy for decades
Biden is done.
So is every other democratic nominee 😄
@Will Ritter
Dead Eye Joe Trump’s Fifth Column
You idiots have been saying since Biden announced his campaign that he is done, yet he is still going strong and still ahead Trump in almost all polls.
Jordan he did poorly in Iowa, what in the hell are you talking about? Pete is a sneaky rat, he stands no chance against Trump. Bernie is our only hope!
He was out of his league eleven years ago. Should have opened a job hunters business……..oh wait he did.
That Biden ad literally sounded like an SNL skit. So petty it’s ridiculous.
@Adaryll Kelly Then why did every POC mayor in Iowa endorse him, as well as dozens of local black leaders and even Miss Black America? Why is he the only candidate with a comprehensive plan to help POC in America?
Biden is just upset he be. All right. He try to come for Pete and Pete responded. Like Pete said he’s not Obama. He never said he was Obama. Joe Biden think he is Obama. But he will never be Obama Biden think this is 2008. Like Pete said faith is 20/20. We just ready for something new. Something different
@Alyssa Wolfe Try again
it’s dog-whistle anti-gay too… colored lights and kitties??? really disappointing by Joe Biden 🙁
When Obama does something good:
Biden: Oh Yeah I helped with that!
When Obama does something bad:
Biden: Oh well that was Obama’s mess not mine.
Joey Blakey none of those were bad things but ok
@t Bone Helped the Mexican cartel? Approved the CIA training and funding ISIS to be Syrian “rebel fighters”? Killed hundreds of thousands of innocent ppl with drones strikes? Start back up the slave trade? Must I go on???
t Bone he said that u can keep ur doctor with Obamacare and he either lied or was misinformed about his own plan.
When Pete here’s an idea he steals it. Look at Yang before Pete. Than now pete
Pete says “we built this (campaign from nothing)”? No Pete, THIS is who YOU are: “Former Mayor Pete Buttigieg – SOME MORE NEWS” https://youtu.be/DMmoB2WMMlo
If anything….. I’m Obama. 😂
I wonder why Jake Tapper looks so sad? He should try a little smile.
@theshecamel that’s halarious 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Lol
He just knows that Pete steals all his ideas from Andrew Yang
@Tt Fff Jake Tapper forgot how to smile since 2016. He’ll need rehabilitation therapy in 2024
Biden stole that from Reagan. …Biden does that frequently – 1st in college nonsense, yada yada yada.
Alright! Thanks for pointing this out! I wonder what motivated CNN to do this.
Ratings, although any exposure of a candidate is good for the candidate. Gives them a chance to get free airtime and explain their platform clearly. Clearly, dump took advantage of that. Now the dems need to do the same.
Agree with his summation of our legal system , stop incarceration people for possession of Marijuana.
The only people who will benefit from this are white people as they are usually the ones buying the drugs. Pete seems to still want to go crazy on those who sell the drugs. Many of those are as vulnerable as the ones who only have possession of them.
@ATS_ It’s not prisons that deserve support, it’s people who abide by the law that deserve every advantage available. People who take a stand against civilised society don’t deserve any of the advantages of society. Don’t even think about turning this into a race thing, it’s purely a merit based situation.
I am joking
Lol Pete copycat! Copy a lot of ideas from Andrew Yang and lied as his own originals … SAD!
Yes Pete keep copying. If you want to keep going forward go to Yang 2020
Anyone other than trump at this point lol
@Jamie Swanson no hetero gonna beat him either. Keep America great baby you already know what’s up!!
Trump will win 2020. Dems are helping him. Moving America Forward!!!!! K.A.G.
James Bicket Not so fast buddy, Bloomberg is gaining on them. Trump and Bloomberg are both NYer’s and they know how to play the game!!! PS, I’m a NYer, so I know.
James Bicket trump 2020
Please check out Andrew Yang. Pete loves to steal his ideas
“This is about getting delegates” just not when it comes to the presidential election
It’s a draconian system that makes ZERO sense either way dude
“Where I come from the person that gets the most votes is the person that oughta win.” -Mayor Pete, CNN Town Hall 2019…. Oops
@H@ppyC@mper He still believes that. It doesn’t change the fact that he has to win by the current rules of the system in order to change it.
MightyMido for the primary, absolutely. I do however still favor the electoral college in the presidential
Oh Gawd, here we go. The circular firing squad is loading up. And this time it’s personal.
Dems will “kamikaze” one another in the next month or so.
Politicians just can’t seem to answer a yes or no question with a yes or no.
Because some questions can’t be answered with just a yes or a no
Trump can, and while he is not a politician. politicians seem to hate him for that!
MAGA!
Bernie always does
@Rodney James that’s why he specifically said a yes or no question.
The soundtrack switches in Biden’s attack ad though 👌😂
“He’s polling in the top two”, what! Who says that! Normal people would say he’s polling in second, which he is, with a seven point gap according to today’s CNN poll. Obviously saying he’s in second place sounds bad, so you gotta say he’s in the “top two”… for God’s sake.
As usual: on simple question no simple answer … politics as usual.
