Honest question: Is there a single Democratic presidential candidate who wants to beat Trump? Because it’s really starting to look like they’re all just tripping all over each other to pile into the clown car.
Case in point, here’s what Pete Buttigieg did today:

Appreciate @TheRevAl inviting me to join today for lunch at Sylvia’s in Harlem, where we discussed inclusion in politics and a policy agenda for black Americans that includes economic, social, and political equity. https://t.co/FueCdthlq9

Breaking bread with a bigot to own the cons. Did David Duke join them for dessert?

Oh.
Discussing homophobia with Al Sharpton? https://t.co/w0Q5KYM4tn

Well, as a homophobe, Al should certainly have plenty to say on that subject. Though we’d be remiss if we didn’t also point out Sharpton’s other notable area of expertise:
Tell me more about normalizing anti-semitism when every Democratic candidate is kissing Sharpton's ring. https://t.co/o2cCFDDNG3

And while there’s never a good time to hang out with Al Sharpton, Buttigieg’s timing is particularly egregious:
#MayorPete. you're hanging with a known anti-semite two days after the synagogue shooting? Tone deaf….

And then this happens in the wake of all the anti- Semitic attacks. Why Democrats can’t see that their party literally embraces anti semitism will always boggle me

Just two days after the synagogue shooting in San Deigo, @PeteButtigieig partners up with @TheRevAl…who incited violent anti-Semitic riots in the early 90's and called Israel "hell." @BecketAdams https://t.co/CzJwLNFiT1

You have chosen poorly, Mayor Pete.
That dude will win you very few points. Actually, he's a liability.

Ugh. Pete, stay away from that fraud. He doesn’t speak for us.

Stay away from @TheRevAl. Or, you will lose more votes than earning them.
Funny, why all Dems presidential candidates are trying to get endorsement or support from Al? I would avoid those Dems candidates who do that.— Il-Hyung Cho (@dinguitar) April 29, 2019
Mayor Pete just lost my respect. He never had my vote, but I did respect him
