‘The epitome of privilege’: Booker supporters seethe over Buttigieg mania
Politico ^ | May 13, 2019 | Nolan D. McCaskill

Posted on 05/13/2019 6:28:00 AM PDT by C19fan

One of the Democrats running for president is a youthful former Rhodes Scholar who speaks more than one language and cut his teeth as a two-term mayor. The other is Pete Buttigieg.

Buttigieg’s sparkling resume has been the subject of countless profiles, powering the South Bend mayor to the top tier of the 2020 field. Sen. Cory Booker, however, hasn’t received nearly as much attention and remains mired in the middle of the pack in recent polls.

I am laughing as I am posting this. I guess Booker's supporters do not know much about "Spartacus'" background as throwing out the "privilege" charge is a pot calling kettle black moment.

A butt guy named Butt Guy is not going to win the presidency.

For the first time in his life Booker finds out that he isn’t gay enough.

Politico is all lies. Buttgiggity's numbers show that he's jumped the shark gerbil. Six months from now nobody will remember his name.

Buttigieg is White. That’s all Booker’s supporters need to know. White now trumps EVERYTHING.

This is one of the beauties of having 20-25 dem candidates running identity politics campaigns. Each one can and will complain that another is not ______ enough! (Fill blank with current politically correct descriptor, i.e., Black, feminist, gay, LGBTQRST-supporting, Trump-hating, impeachment-supporting, climate-change-supporting, etc., etc. and on and on, blah, blah, blah.

The ultimate 21 gun circular firing squad!

the hilarious thing about this is that booker just doesn’t openly embrace/flaunt his gayness...petey does, and has a “husband”.

booker should be crushing him...black, a senator and also very gay.

but mayor pete is out-maneuvering him, and it’s all because he is gayer.

lol.

i’d hate to be a democrat.

Booker knows that, if he comes out as “flamingly” gay, he will lose the machismo vote. All the male gang-bangers of color will go elsewhere cuz...
