Crowd at Pete Buttigieg farewell rally predicts Donald Trump will win in 2020

Wow. Former journo Ron Fournier thinks Trump will win, too?

That was the first speech of the 2024 campaign. Wow, @PeteButtigieg

Earlier, Buttigieg made it clear he’s no fan of Bernie Sanders:

Buttigieg makes clear he doesn’t think @SenSanders is the right direction for the party. That’ll be a big part of the message from tonight. Holding endorsement until later is more respectful to his supporters- but also gives him a second chance to make that point again.

Front-runners Sanders and Joe Biden are now competing for his voters:

Bernie Sanders in LA says he wants to welcome supporters of Pete Buttigieg into his movement.

Reminder: Buttigieg has called Sanders “polarizing” and said Sanders’ campaign is one of extremes and all or nothing. https://t.co/S5DBSfWtg7

And here’s Biden:

.@PeteButtigieg ran a historic, trail-blazing campaign based on courage, compassion, and honesty. We will be a better country for his continued service. This is just the beginning of his time on the national stage.

So, did Pete cut a deal for the VP slot?

Think Sanctimonious Pete cut a deal with Biden to be his VP?
