Klobuchar: A Woman with Buttigieg’s Resume Wouldn’t Win Nomination
Breitbart ^ | 19 Dec 2019 | by Ian Hanchett

Posted on 12/20/2019 8:12:49 AM PST by powermill

During an interview with CNN on Thursday, 2020 presidential candidate Senator Amy Klobuchar (D-MN) argued that a woman who had the same experience as fellow 2020 Democrat South Bend Mayor Pete Buttigieg wouldn’t be able to win the Democratic nomination.

Klobuchar said, “I do think there’s a double standard.

Now, that doesn’t mean that he is not qualified. He is. But do I think that a woman who had lost the statewide race, lost the race for the DNC, was a mayor of a small town would be able to be the candidate to head up our ticket?

I don’t. But that’s not my problem. My problem is convincing America that I can be that person. And so, that is my case.”

My the Democrat voters sure are a bunch of misogynistic racists.

Powder Puff Pete isn’t going to get the nomination....

He will run into a Buzz Saw in SC forward....

You don’t get to be the Democrat nominee without winning the black primary vote... and they will never show up for Adam and Steve.

She would if she were homosexual. That’s what is salient about his resume according to the intolerant left

Democrats have a problem with women. The Democrats hated Sarah Palin.

Republicans, on the other hand, welcome the diversity.

So, she’s saying buttplug won’t get the nomination? A woman with his/her/them/they’s resume is what she said. Homophobic much l’amy clubcar?

A heterosexual person with buttygeeg’s resume wouldn’t even attempt to claim that he was a candidate.

And a white man with Obama’s resume wouldn’t have won the nomination either.

A woman with HIS resume would be a “lesbian”, and I guess that’s worse than plain male homosexuals?

I would also add a straight male with Mayor Pete’s resume would not make the first debate or any subsequent debate let alone winning the nomination.

Klobuchar is a homophobe. Start labeling Rats like they do to us.

There’s no double standard: The Great Poofterini won’t get the nomination either.
