The sharp exchanges between Amy Klobuchar and Pete Buttigieg at last night’s debate have created a lot of buzz. What was noteworthy was the it was not about major policy differences but rather over trivial things about whether Klobuchar should have known the name of the Mexican president, who is more electable, the dreary old trope about whether it is better to be a Washington insider or outsider, and so on.
This clip on Twitter pretty much captured the spirit of the exchanges.

If you did not see the debate, here are the exchanges between the two of them.

Two sociopaths fighting over the same demographic. Amy probably thinks that if she can bully Mayo out of the race she can pick up nearly all of Pete’s supporters.
This was one of funniest social media comments about this:
