The Indiana Democrat has admitted that, despite his meteoric rise in the 2020 presidential field, his outreach and standing with African American constituencies have been lacking and are something his campaign needs to focus on in the coming weeks. Lunch with Sharpton -- which included advice from the civil rights leader about how Buttigieg, who is gay, should discuss his sexuality with African American voters -- is part of that effort.
"People know what is in your heart, they know what you are about, and they see the results that you bring about," he said."And I believe you can reach anyone and the only way to really test that theory" is by going to communities and asking for their support.Buttigieg's ability to win over African American voters has been a central question in the mayor's recent uptick.
Sylvia’s Hot Sauce. The kind Hillary carries around. 👸
Everything Pete does is so contrived. This is like a parody of itself.
Did they discuss taxes?
There seems to be some scum on the windows
Al Sharpton does not represent Black America. These lame Democrat politicians are barking up the wrong tree. Obama made Al more than he is by giving him all that access to the White House. He a tax cheating rabble rouser with a platform on a trash network.
The same way Al does with fake rape cases!!! Doncha Know!!!
I detest people who expect me to give a damn about their sexuality. ButtigiegTownHall
Here is what you do, Pete. You tell the POC that you're not really white. Because all white are supremacists. Then you promise everything is free, the white man is to blame for everything, and that Democrats will take care of POC forever.
You must kiss his ring.
if this doesn't yell photo op, i do not know what does, what a disgrace.
Rev?
Pandering to Sharpton is reason enough not to vote for him.
Did the good 'reverend' TheRevAl guide PeteButtigieg on how to evade paying his taxes?
BIG MISTAKE 🤦🏾♂️
Al sharpton is a rat are you kidding. The most unholy rev in the world.
Reparation for all living slaves with a bill of sales from the owner. The taxpayer is not Costco.
I hope people know that no one listens to Sharpton
Mr. Sharpton is out of touch with African Americans long ago. Nobody wants to live in pain and trauma for so long. He hasn’t been an agent of healing, but of perpetual burden and, in my opinion, making a living out of it.
Why would you ever give that horrible man any accountability as a reputable man? His past is nasty and he's a crook.
Way to go Pete! Did the Rev introduce you to Tawana Brawley?
Why is progressive Pete hanging out with a anti-semite?
Trump has actually done something for the African American community, lowest unemployment, First Step Act, Opportunity zones.Democrats more interested in appearing to want to do something. But history shows they never DO!! They want a victim based society, dependent on Government
The obligatory hot sauce on the table
Yuck they look like two creeps.
Almost like it was a photo op.
A gay man will never be the leader of America.. fyi
So the guy that wants to raise taxes gets chummy with the guy who doesn't pay his taxes.
Not sure why candidate pay attention to an outspoken antisemitic leader
Really Mayor PeteButtigieg? Are you against police? This is who you had lunch with... ⬇️
Who okayed the lone bottle of hot sauce on the table for this topic
A fake. Minister give a advice. The blind guiding the blind this hilarious 😂
Why ask someone who wont even pay their taxes? Ridiculous
He’s trying too hard. Al will burn him if he doesn’t follow Al’s agenda.
Hope they photo-opped across 125th & Rev Al pointed out that Wells Fargo is rolling onto the spot where Harlem’s legendary Lenox Lounge once stood. Candidates courting black voters must address crises posed by gentrification.
Well I guess TheRevAl, a bigoted, race-baiting, anti-Semitic charlatan is just the person to get advice from, huh?
Pandering to Sharpton is a better description.
blacks hate gays more than almost any other community... good luck mr buttleiuge
Sitting with a criminal racist. Typucal dem.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Pay your taxes Al. You owe millions. Pathetic.
Staged...wish Christopher Hitchens was still alive to put this clown in his place again.
SO staged. Expected better from Pete.
MayorPete cites his 'audacity' on the campaign trail but I don't see it in his personal coming-out story. In 2015 when PeteButtigieg came out he was 33 years old. Where's the audacity in that? It's a tad lame given how much progress LGBT folks had achieved by the 2000s.
He wouldn't have to win anyone over if he didn't act super racist
I dont know why Al Sharpton thinks the African American Community trusts him. Go talk to somebody, bring up Al, and watch their face.
He has a D next to his name. That’s it
It’s Easy, They will vote Democrat no matter how many decades they’ve failed them?
But a bottle of hot sauce though
Joe Biden/ Stacey Abrams 💪 Joe2020
African Americans are very religious it’s a difficult task for him in my view. Biden will get most of the African American vote
Two clowns
Dude looks like a PEZ dispenser.
Yeah he’s gonna get filayed
Broke out the hot sauce I see. RACIST!!!
❣️🤘🏽Pete🤘🏽❣️
RealCandaceO 'I will never stop fighting for the freedom of black minds. The racist Democrats (RepJerryNadler, tedlieu etc) have at long last met their match. We will be free.' .
Blacks have sold out time and time again, if they vote for a white phahggot it will show that they would rather be phahggot pansies than do anything worthwhile
RuPaul would give him better advice.
I hope Al ate because he looks like shit
He's already won me over.
Sad!
Pete has zero chance in 2020!
