Buttigieg: Voting for Trump, At Best Means You Excuse Racism
'It means look the other way on racism'

Presidential hopeful and South Bend Mayor Pete Buttigieg (D.) said that supporting President Donald Trump means "at best" excusing racism during an appearance on CNN Sunday morning. The comment is a part of a series of statements Buttigieg has made accusing the Republican Party of enabling racism.
"You told me on the show two weeks ago that you believe President Trump is a white nationalist," CNN host Jake Tapper said. "Given that, do you think that it's a racist act to cast a vote for President Trump in 2020?"
"Well, at best it means look the other way on racism, but I think that a lot of people are wondering what kind of deal even that is supposed to be," Buttigieg said. "You look at what he said at that rally, ‘You've got no choice but to vote for me.'"
