Interesting thing I noticed about "Bernie or Busters"

[Tommy_Carcetti]

Who I’ll reiterate are not the same thing as regular Sanders supporters and are likely heavily infiltrated and propped up by malicious adversaries.

It appears their main target to attack amongst the Democratic filed, moreso than Biden (the moderate front runner) or Warren (the alternative choice for strong progressives) is...Pete Buttigieg.

Why is this? Why have they focused so much of their venom on Mayor Pete, beyond all others?

It doesn’t seem to make any logical sense, but then again, nothing about the Bernie or Busters does—at least on the surface.

1. Key is venom. BS and his fervid supporters rely on anger and venom.

Was so conspicuous dating back to the 24 Dem candidates of last year, or the 2016 BS campaign.

3. Yep. And, "rely on anger and venom" bullying (nt)

2. because they are dismissing Biden and Warren as irrelevant

(not a threat)...and they see Buttigieg as a threat...

4. This! Buttigieg has, or had, the most delegates

And Bernie's people know it. He overperforms his polls everywhere, unlike Biden and Warren. They'll go after Bloomberg once he's actually collecting delegates.

5. They switch to who gets into the way

of their savior. Pete dared to win Iowa and "stole" BS' headlines, followed by another strong result in NH. I think that is when he started to attract way more attacks than he did previously. On the other side, we already saw the strange "Mayo" Pete attacks before that, also on DU.

6. On this site today I saw Biden or bust.

Granted it cannot be seen now. I’m hopeful no one is planning on “busting” regardless of who they support.
