Pete Buttigieg commended a protester who interrupted a community gathering held to rally African American support for him.

Video footage of the incident shows the man, identified by WVPE as Igor Rodriguez, interrupting Councilwoman Sharon McBride.

Rodriguez then approached McBride and took the microphone from her hand."Who chose these people as black leaders?" he asked, walking quickly across the room."Who organized this? We have a police crisis in this town. Why are we talking about Pete Buttigieg?"

1. PeteForPresident has always and consistently elevated the speech of POC. 2. He certainly didn’t do it because BernieBros made him do it. 3. “Alleged” is a very poor choice of words for a professional to use here. 4. Find more details at: 😁

Oh that was a Sanders supporter! The news was saying it was a Buttigieg supporter. LOL

Ya know. This is a pretty damn accurate article for a minute. You had me all the way until the end. Do better homework.

SnowflakeSnark Hum. Kind of a weird headline. How about 'Sanders supporter takes mic from black Buttigieg supporter. Pete vows his constituents will not be silenced.'

Alleged?

Does Pete hate black voters?

😬

Internecine warfare. I've just wanted to use that term for a long time.

Sanders supporters is why I will never ever vote for BernieSanders

What an insane and dishonest spin. Pete gets protested by BLM because he is terrible and has 0 minority support (for good reason). MSM tries to pin it on Bernie while pretending it means Pete... is the champion of black voters?
