Democratic presidential hopefuls Amy Klobuchar and Tom Steyer were stumped when asked during a televised interview in Nevada to name the Mexican president.

Andrés Manuel López Obrador was inaugurated as Mexico’s president in December 2018.Steyer, a billionaire businessman, replied, “I forgot.”

Buttigieg, the former mayor of South Bend, Ind., was the only one of the three who knew the answer. “López Obrador, I hope,” he said with a smile. The interviews occurred after a candidate forum hosted by the League of United Latin American Citizens, the nation’s largest Latino civil rights organization. Buttigieg, Klobuchar and Steyer were the only 2020 candidates to attend. Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders addressed the audience via video.

Nevada has a large immigrant population, and Latinos are a crucial constituency for Democrats. The state will be the third to weigh in on the Democratic presidential nomination when it holds its caucuses Feb. 22.

Embarrassing.

Ask all the men, do articles about it. 🙄

Who cares? Doesn’t effect me one way or the other. Should we just have Jeopardy do a Primary event to figure out winner of it all? “I will take History’s Mysteries for $400, Alex. “

Can Trump?

Trump thinks the Chiefs play in Kansas. Hell, you don’t even fly over Mexico.

It doesn’t matter ... the current President himself doesn’t know his States 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

amyklobuchar the more you know the more it’s clear how little she knows.

Mayor Pete did

'Ummm... Juan... Sohmeteeeng?... Pedro?'

Do they know what state there in

Ok I knew it had López in it but forgot the last name ... let it go most of us still like Vincente Fox

So what?

El Presidente de Mexico es Andrès Manuel López Obrador y el no va a pagar para el Muro todavía

Fucking AMLO. Memorize it.

Just look on the canceled check he wrote to pay for Trump's wall.

...immediately googles Mexican President in case someone asks me...

Trump doesn’t even know where Kansas City is so please STFU with this

They could at least guess. I'm going to go with Pablo Escobar.
