Sanders has criticized the former Indiana mayor before, but not like this.
Politico "MANCHESTER, New Hampshire — Bernie Sanders has a new target: Pete Buttigieg.
"In the days leading up to the first-in-the-nation primary, the Vermont senator is lighting up the former South Bend mayor over his billionaire donors while his aides are circulating talking points calling him “a favorite candidate of Wall Street and the health care industry.” Hours before the presidential contenders were due on the debate stage, Sanders’ team also managed to get the hashtag #PetesBillionaires trending on Twitter." . . .
. . . "Though Sanders has needled Buttigieg over his billionaire contributors previously, his most recent comments represent something of a shift. He almost never mentions Buttigieg on the trail, and until now has trained most of his fire in the Democratic contest on Joe Biden and Michael Bloomberg. The change underscores the importance of New Hampshire to Sanders’ campaign — and the fact that Buttigieg is nipping at his heels in the first-in-the-nation primary state." . . .
. . . Sanders’ talking points, which were obtained by POLITICO, state that Buttigieg is “soliciting money from corporate executives and billionaires to fund his campaign” and that he supported Sanders’ Medicare-for-All proposal until “he started raising big money.” Forbes found that Buttigieg “has more exclusive billionaire donors than any other Democrat in the race.” . . .
