You just knew that in an era of pathological Trump Derangement Syndrome, Democrats would blame Trump for Iran shooting down a Ukrainian airliner at Tehran airport on the night Iran fired ballistic missiles at bases in Iraq housing U.S. troops. Iran fired the missile, there were no U.S. planes in action over Tehran and we were not firing at them, but somehow Trump would be blamed.

Mayor Pete hits back at Elizabeth Warren: You used “same big-ticket fundraisers you now denounce”

Posted by Fuzzy Slippers on December 20, 2019 12 Comments

At last night's Democrat debate, the mayor of South Bend, Indiana and one of the legions of Democrat candidates for president Pete Buttigieg responded well to attacks by Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA). She started out quite puffed up and pleased with herself as she launched into a holier-than-thou tirade about Buttigieg's "wine cave" fundraiser.

Given how completely out of left field the leading 2020 Democrat presidential contenders are, it's become somewhat common to see Pete Buttigieg, the mayor of South Bend, Indiana, as a moderate. Perhaps when compared to socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) and fringe leftist Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), he is a moderate.
