Hey!!! PeteButtigieg !!! How many picket lines did you walk before you ran for President? You're phony as Kamala

Nice sentiment. Genuine change or craven pandering? Not yet sure

Notice he is only doing this now when he is running for president and never did it any other time in his career as mayor or other times ? Bernie has always went and joined picket lines no matter when .

I wonder if he'll gentrify them?

Happening now; Mayor Pete decides to FakeLeft. 🥀

This reminds me of when Kamala Harris put out that Trans flag in front of her office. Just pandering. These neo-liberals are every bit as deluded as ANY Trump supporter to support a clearly manufactured candidate.

In his own book PeteButtigieg mocked fellow students who were standing with striking Harvard janitorial staff as 'SJWs' whats changed Mayor Pete? PuppetPete ButtigiegStandOnNothing

Bernie is and has always been on the frontline!!!

His values want to give them a pathway to better paying jobs, and access to the possibility of healthcare. Platitudes Pandering

This guy is a fraud

MayorPhotoOp PeteButtineversupportedlaborbefore

Nobody is falling for this. But I do hope the strikers get their demands met and then some.

How in the world is this player now for unions? FeelTheBern all the way to Malden, Massachusetts you lab specimen of panderer! Im sticking with the OGB!

Fn fraud.

Well I will say that is incredibly ballsy. It’s like he thinks we don’t have the internet or something...

He’s a shitheel there for a photo op.

BootyJudge: I stand with the striking union members. Also BootyJudge: You can't Boycott Divest and Sanction Israel, You Heathen Anti-Semite! I smite thee.

Fake. Came to steal the show and offer Obamaesque platitudes. 'I came to stand with these men and women on this sidewalk. It is important to stand on the sidewalk. That's what sidewalks are all about.'

Happening NOW PeteButtigieg smiles for the camera while pretending to support Stop and Shop workers.

Patronizing

His help came late and was never needed in the first place.

Pandering Pete

What a phony and of course ABC is following him. What does that tell you? Everything you need to know. He is one of the establishments picks.

What a phony

Lol

I thought all the Shop n Saves went under? Around here (St. Louis)Schnucks bought all their locations and re-opened them in Schnucks name but they’re not as good as the original Schnucks locations, smaller in size and no meat processing on site.

Anybody with half a brain can see right through this.

Another vapid Neoliberal punk used by DNC & MSM in an attempt to relive the glory yrs of scamming the country with a Neoliberal/NeoCon Democrat based solely their ability to lie like a sociopath & possess some character they can exploite via identity politics.

Transgender🤔 I love them all🌍 To run America🤔💭💭💭 Don't run if you only want to get the benefits of your beings, run because you're a great man. God made You! Accept for what God made you and not what you made you. It takes a man to be a man. It takes a woman to be a woman.

Then he takes down their names and addresses, goes back to his hotel and reports them to the police for unlawful assembly.

Shallow politics at its worst. He doesn't support the workers, this is all about press coverage.

This coming from the same man who has the gall to compare a Democratic primary opponent he disagrees with to Trump, the most Nazi sympathizing president in recent memory...and who called labor activists 'SJWs'. It's clear now, Pete will say or do anything to be president.

Joins picket line to do interviews

His 1st picket line. Awe, isn't that cute.

ThisWeekABC If anyone drops their wallet kick it to the corner of the block before bending to pick it up.

Lmao photo op and then...

Ripping off Elizabeth Warren.

Empty empty empty empty

Really PeteButtigieg? Trying to build up some fake Progressive cred huh? Sorry, but you are not BernieSanders. He's been fighting this battle since jumpstreet. You are only in that line to pick up some votes. No other reason.

maybe pete should stop and shop for beer to buttchug with

Theres only one candidate who walks picket lines with workers when he isnt running for president, and it isnt the former McKinsey consultant depicted above.

Fairweather friend of labor

Where was he when AT&T workers were on strike in South Bend?

Workers are fighting for better wages and Pete uses this as a photo op. Disgusting!

Yea he's not a thing.

Yeah, you’re a real man of the people. Pro charter school... No thanks.

Lol Pete Harvard criticized protesters as Social Justice Warriors. Now he's a man of the people? This dude is a fraud

'I am just another human here. Hello fellow humans.'

What took PeteButtigieg so long I guess the political wind was blowing by Stop and Shop

Pandering

This was focus tested at the stop bernie meetings.

Joins? More like goes over to them for a photo op. Mayor Pete isn’t for labor; Bernie Sanders is for labor!

This is pandering at its best... he won't be there tomorrow and today is just for media and pictures.

PanderPete isn't getting my vote. Maybe backing the racists and opposing good policy isn't a winning strategy.

Say what you will, but Beto 2.0 is a lot less entertaining. That standing on tables glitch was the best part of his campaign.

Was this before or after he stopped at Chick Fil A

I hope Pete is asked about his previous thoughts activists.

Pete hates picketers.

Copying Bernie2020 like the rest of them 🤣🤣🤣

Pete Buttigieg once dismissed student labor activists as SJWs. Now he is pandering for labor votes. We'll take the guy who has ALWAYS stood with labor. BERNIE SANDERS! 🥰❤️

if elected this is what pete would do to organized labor:

Nice try, but he's a little late to the party.

Who is this?

Oh no, are Kamala, Booker , Beto and the other corporate Dems losing to Buttigieg? Donors vs. donors

ABC pushing that anti medicareforall candidate as a friend of the worker . Don’t believe the corporate hype

This is irrelevant. What matters is, HOW MANY PICKET LINES DID HE JOIN WHEN HE WASN'T RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT?

Remember when you had similar tweets whenever Bernie Sanders joined all of the picket lines he's joined over the years? Made a really big deal out of 'em and everything? Remember that? Yeah. Me neither. Why is that exactly? 🤔

Cute. He’s still trash.

He literally ignored and denigrated janitors striking for higher wages at Harvard in favor of quietly following the rules with his entitled fellow students but now he stands w striking workers? Phony.

Cool, so abc is pro-union now? 😂

ROTFLMAO!!!! I wonder if he started the chant 'All Lives Matter!!!'

Gotta ask: Bernie’s been standing with workers and walking picket lines for years, even recently! Did you cover that? Or is this just more MSM 2016 bullshit? We’re getting mighty tired of your crap!

So which unions are backing him?

Yeah, S&S giving out all those Easter baskets 🧺 & candy-may it be that the striking faithful workers of S&S get baskets 🧺 & candy 1st along with a free turkey 🦃 or ham & a pie-

Definition of Johnny come lately = Pete Buttigieg

He's never done this before and wouldn't if Bernie wasn't crushing.

Didn’t this dude call labor activists sjws?

Seriously? In his book he mocks activists for trying to get Harvard janitors a living wage...has never lifted a finger in active protest...why now?

First time for everything.

Bernie been doing it for years

His first picket line, he must be so excited. No wait, he actually INVENTED the picket line. Endorsement of picket line products on Amazon coming soon, available in rainbow colors following 1 year of conscripted service.

👇🏼

I guess, based on his own book, he’s a social justice warrior

Its a parade.. I am glad to see attention and union strong.. but not as pawns

PretendPete

Just a Photo Op, dude doesn't have a history of it, he actually called ppl who protested'social justice warriors' in his book

This is interesting since Pete dismisses labor activists as 'social justice warriors' in his book. Wonder what changed?

Empty suit capitalist, in the same mode as Obama.

He's also backed by several corporate PACS and governered like a republican, no thanks.

The latest episode of BeingBernieSanders - funny how they're all trying to be Bernie, while still 'colluding'😉 with Pelosi etal to stop him. 🙄🙄 BERNIE2020 ✊🤗💥🔥

For the first time in his yuppy life.

Judge people based on what they did before they decided to run for president, not after.

We all know Dem establishment chose Pete behind Closed door. Nancy,Chuck, nera tandem and other rich donors held a meeting on how to stop SenSanders.

Did he run out of philosophical ideas already?

So he pretends to stand with workers while running for potus. Has he ever stood on a picket line before? Very unlikely.

Fake. He'll do nothing to help workers if elected.

Hey!!! PeteButtigieg !!! Is your campaign union? Bernie's is.

What a fake. Meanwhile Bernie has been standing on picket lines with workers since before Pete was born.

Incredibly insulting that he thinks were this naive. ByePeteBye BabyRepublican

Bernie is much stronger on unions and worker rights. He has been standing with them long before he ran for President. Pete is just here for the photo ops.

Lol probably his first time of a picket line

Way to pander, Pete. PeteButtigieg is not now, has never been, and will never be an ally to the working class.

'As the son of university professors and an Ivy League Rhodes scholar, I can assure you that I'm no stranger to the picket line or to the revolutionary theory Carl Marks.'

He dismissed protesters in his book. Apparently he’s going to pretend he’s with us 🙄

Typical photo-op nonsense. He doesn’t support unions.

I wonder if this was discussed at the dinner meetings he attended with the Dem elite to derail bernie? This guy is as fraudulent as they come, how can people be so gullible?

Bernie has been fighting for the working class in this country for decades. Ohio NotMeUs Union

Is there any video of MayorPete ever joining a picket line before? Of Pete vocally fighting for union workers & labor rights? If a candidate doesn't have the past actions & record to lend credibility to what they say & do now on the campaign trail, that's a huge red flag...

I will take the guy that’s been doing this 40 years...not 40 minutes.

Buttigieg is a slimy opportunist

He just met with Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer, two of the biggest corporatists. They're not progressive and neither is he. posers

what a fraud

Do the people on that line know he wants mandatory military service for their children, to deny them access to affordable healthcare and that he never gave two shit about them until he needed them for a photo op so he could seem genuine like SenSanders ? I bet not-Disingenuous!

Can he first apologize for calling labor activists Social Justice Warriors?

Bernie did it first! Pete is not Bernie, not even in the same 'ballpark'- Pete is more about 'selling out in back room sneaky plots'

When he left, and got in his vehicle, did he immediately asked his campaign staff 'Okay, what else does Bernie do that we should do next?'

Copying Bernie lmao

We need to keep our unions. Thank you Pete

🙄 What an even bigger butthead then I initially realized..

What a joke. He hired Goldman Sachs lobbyist Steven Elmendorf to fundraise for him and now he's gonna try to pretend he stands with the working class? Gtfo. No one's buying this act.

This guy is as phony as a $3 bill.

*Vote Smart* Search string - Labor, Union, Collective bargaining Results: 'No Matching Public Statements Found' Maybe Pete was just trying to shop for sharpie markers to write his name on the walls of Petey central.

He has the grin of someone who has the backing of multi-national corporations. Unions my ass. Indiana’s minimum wage is still $7.25.

Has ever covered one of the MANY occasions Bernie has been on the picket line?

Has he ever done this even once before running for President? Happy to be wrong, but I seriously doubt it.

Did he ever join a picket line while not running for potus? Nobody likes a fake.

Awesome someone needs to stand for unions I'm losing my union job on the 4th of May at Fiat Chrysler Belvidere is painful

Trump

Are you going to cover every time SenSanders stands with workers?Also show how he then went to New Hampshire and said Medicare for All cannot happen... Way to stand with workers who don't have job security

🤣 PhonyPete

Ah the guy with no platform. No more corporate democrats for me

I don’t care that he’s gay! This guy is smart and well spoken

The next US President?

LocalPoliticsis Nothing like grabbing some free air time Pete!

What are the female candidates up to today?

Deputy Should Be Suspended Without Pay!

I want to no more about some racist tapes that has Pete and police officers talking about the black police chief

Johnny come lately.

Why do you ignore Elizabeth Warren? Is she not Disney enough?

I like Pete and I am an independent. Biden should choose Pete as his running mate. JoeBiden PeteButtigieg. Pete is sincere and down to the earth. A true American.

mplspat

mplspat FAKE

Go Pete from Oz !

this guy looks the real deal

May the Blood of Jesus Christ give him Victory. 😇

Hope he wins in 2020

Excellent manners and well spoken.

Love this guy! Also wow the bots are out in full force already. Be aware and report. Most of the negative comments on this post are bots.

Oh fer chrissake they are all trying to be Bernie

Pete is pro Wall St. Wall St is anti worker. Don’t let this guy fool you!

Nice

In my neck of the hood..

When the strike puts the S&S in my town out of biz (highest prices in town) these employees will be out of work and can go to one of the 2 other non union shops with lower pay and lower benefits. Good job!

Then he went off to oversee evictions of gross poor people in a blight rehab project

Let’s give credit to Bernie Sanders who has been fighting his whole life for the poor & working class. Who has been a champion for unions & civil rights. Who has organized & stood in-person with striking workers. 40+ years fighting for the people, long before Pete was even born.

Another Soros puppet ready to destroy free speech & capitalism which has made this country great for nearly 250 years.

he's really good

Practicing what he preaches. Luv mayor Pete!

Go mayor Pete

It's time EA SPORTS to bring BACK NCAA FOOTBALL

Good for him!

I'm the daughter of a union man and pro-union myself. This is great!

What a twerp with absolutely no substance but hate

G v.

so each one is taking a turn to get the UNION VOTE, this is why I voted TRUMP, MAGA! GET BACK TO WORK or quit!

Can you say pandering

He will be Bu Fu king with them !

I usually like this but not when is convenient that he’s doing this because of the primary race...

Slay kween

Where's his next stop...a Shell Station or 7-11

Politically motivated

The anti-Trump is rising

ThisWeekABC Unbelievable..StopandShopStrike its sad workers allow photo ops by 2020 candidates. You are being used for an agenda.

and 30 seconds later... he's gone. cute.

In mass?

But what about obstruction!

This strike is hurting people who only have Stop and Shop for getting their food. It isn't like striking at Verizon was - this is FOOD!!!!!!!! StopandShop

He speaks Arabic, So.?!

Who?

opportunist

This idiot and the workers should look what happened in California after the big strike 12 years ago. Worst place to work now!

But I what?

Ha ha ha. This guys is a fake.

The series also stars Pam Grier and Ed Begley Jr. LATimesTVLloyd My first thought wasn't 'Green Acres' as much as the Chevy Chase film, 'Funny Farm.'
