Trump: I’d Think I’d Like Running Against Mayor Pete

The Hill reports:

President Trump said Wednesday that he would welcome the opportunity to run against Democratic presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg, his first direct comment on the South Bend, Ind. mayor.

In an interview with David Webb on SiriusXM, Trump speculated that he may end up campaigning for the presidency in 2020 against Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), former Vice President Joe Biden or “the mayor from Indiana,” referencing Buttigieg without mentioning him by name.

“I think I’d like running against him, too,” Trump said of Buttigieg. “But it’ll be interesting to see it unfold.”
