This is what a real leader sound like

Pete Buttigieg after being asked directly about the failure of body cameras: "If anybody is trying to figure out who to hold responsible, the administration bought the technology, hired the officer and wrote the policy. So at the end of the day, I'm responsible."


Too bad the only honest Democrat we have running is behind percentage wise.

he also has less political dirt to spin. Yeah, he's gay, now what? If Trump is going to allow foreign countries to help with oppositional research, great, just great.

Let Pete fight it out, lots of things can happen.

I'd only add that lots of things WILL happen. It's going to be (and already is) one hell of a rollercoaster ride between now and November 2020.

I would not say that he's behind (if he actually is) because he's to blame in this situation.

He is not to blame for it. The cop who shot the man is.

That cop knew that he should have turned on his camera. The fact that he didn't lies squarely on him. Not on Mayor Pete.
