2028 frontrunner Pete Buttigieg's answer to a question on how Democrats should handle Israel has been described as "a beautiful example of sounding like you care about genocide while actually saying nothing at all."

Lmao is he actually a frontrunner? I remember when DeSantis was called that too and look how he turned out.

It's so early that it's kinda worthless to call anyone a frontrunner, but even if it were 2027 and the primaries were actively happening, Mayo Pete's support from black people is so low (actually 0% in certain states in 2020) I'd expect it to be disqualifying. That said, the dems kinda of nobody to run, so idk.
