Hoping to fan racial flames in his direction before the South Carolina primary, Pete Buttigieg tweeted out his support for Trayvon Martin on the occasion of what would have been Martin's 25th birthday, February 5.
"Trayvon Martin would have been 25 today," Mayor Pete tweeted. "How many 25th birthdays have been stolen from us by white supremacy, gun violence, prejudice, and fear?" Buttigieg threw in a Black Lives Matter hashtag just to make sure black voters knew he was down for the struggle.
This tweet would have been unfortunate six months ago. Today, it is unforgivable. In December, attorney Larry Klayman, the founder of Judicial Watch, filed suit on behalf of George Zimmerman in the Circuit Court of Florida's Tenth Judicial Circuit. The story made national news
Based on the research of filmmaker Joel Gilbert, as seen in his new documentary and book of the same name, The Trayvon Hoax, Zimmerman is charging that Team Trayvon substituted an imposter for the real "phone witness" in Zimmerman's 2013 murder trial for the 2012 shooting death of Trayvon Martin and in the depositions that led up to it.
Zimmerman should sue Buttigieg as well. Far from being a white supremacist, the Hispanic Zimmerman was a civil rights activist, an Obama-supporter, and mentor to two black teens at the time Trayvon Martin attacked him. The evidence in Zimmerman's defense was overwhelming, which is why he was acquitted.

But black folks aren’t gonna fall for this one bit.
“Just a honkie a@@ fruit doing the nasty with another man and tryin pretend he care bout us!”
He makes himself look like an unserious candidate with these kinds of juvenile, biased comparrisons.
Yup ‘white hispanic supremacy’. Stupid Alfred E. Newman bone smuggler.
What next, reparations?
I really dislike this Butt guy.
Only Lizzie Warren exceeds this guy’s sanctimony.
So now Trayvon’s birthday is a solemn liberal event????
What an idiot. Zimmerman is multiracial. The jury used a fake witness to try and convict him. Trayvon was actually over 6’ and could fight well and attempted to crack Zimmerman’s head open on the concrete.
Well all else fails, go to identity politics.
They have nothing.
Nothing worse than a self righteous homosexual
Dear Mayor Pete - if Is there’s any room left there, take your overused, woke/leftist slogans and stick them up your @$$
He couldn't even hold on to the job of Mayor of South Bend because of his own raging racism.
More shameless pandering by a Democrat. Most black folks aren’t too accepting of the gay lifestyle, and Buttigieg knows this.
Sorry Mayor Pete, this isn’t going to work. But you could go the Liz Warren route instead, and promise black folks the moon.
This disgusting racial pandering is exactly why the nation is so racially divided
These SOBs don’t care who they have to alienate and divide It’s all about them, those that lived in gated mansions, white hoods, with armed security
Blacks are never wrong, no matter the evidence, and neither are homosexuals, the vectors for millions of people infected with HIV or dead with AIDS related illnesses
tiresome. how about sjl 2020! at least sjl would be more entertaining than this guy.
Trying to endear himself to the black community?
I blame his death on gay men.
Buttigeig is entirely white while Zimmerman is not but then Buttigeig gets to call Zimmerman a white supremacist?
It amuses me to watch these leftists try to kiss every ass imaginable in order to pander to their myriad special interests.
“...”Trayvon Martin would have been 25 today,” ...
...IF he hadn’t tried to bash George Zimmerman’s head into the pavement.
There. Fixed it, Pete.
