One interesting note is just how much Biden has the black vote locked up...Both Harris and Booker are non factors..if that doesn’t change he is going to be tough to beat particularly with Sanders and Warren splitting the so called progressive vote

bernie bros stayin classy


“Tonight, a white Bernie Sanders supporter ripped the microphone out of a black elected city councilwoman's hand who was talking about her positive experiences with Mayor Pete Buttigieg. He screamed over all of the black leaders who gathered to endorse and show their support for our Mayor, including the leader of the local NAACP chapter, saying, "where are the black leaders?" The brother of Eric Logan (the black man who was killed by a cop earlier this year) had to wrestle the microphone out of this man's hand.”

The guy never claimed to be a Bernie supporter. That claim was  made by Buttman's aides.

Several Buttigieg campaign aides reacted on Twitter, suggesting that the protester was loyal to another presidential candidate, Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont.

“This is what Black folks who support Pete experience all the time on Twitter,” Buttigieg’s traveling press secretary, Nina Smith, tweeted. “White men, grabbing the mic, insulting us, calling us ‘uppity’ ‘purchased’ and ‘tokens’ all in support of certain white male candidates. Careful YOUR racism is showing.”

well the act did happen and I saw it from a Mayor Peat Moss feed
I didn't realize that this individual wasn't in fact a berning-man until after space posted that

I just think it's kind of nuts that some white dude gets up with a BLM shirt and taking the mic from the 3 black people on stage saying 'black people don't support Pete'
was just kind of a bizarre story...and maybe a little bernie dig
I mean, I like the guy and his ideas...electibility IMO is the issue with him

But Black people *don't* support Pete. He's polling at 2% with Blacks, compared to 16% for Whites.
