PetesBillionaires trends after Bernie Sanders goes after Buttigieg over billionaire backers amid battle for early-states

The hashtag #PetesBillionaires began trending on Twitter across the United States on Friday afternoon after Senator Bernie Sanders went after former South Bend, Indiana Mayor Pete Buttigieg over his billionaire backers as the two leading 2020 Democratic candidates continue their battle for early-state dominance.

Speaking at the"Politics and Eggs" breakfast at Saint Anselm College on Friday morning, Sanders attacked the 38-year-old former mayor for allegedly cosying up to billionaire donors."How do we feel when we have candidates in the Democratic Party right now—I'm reading some headlines from newspapers about Pete Buttigieg," the Vermont senator said, before describing his rival as a 2020 candidate that possesses the"most exclusive billionaire donors of any Democrat.

"Which side are you on?" Sanders asked."We are in a moment where billionaires control not only our economy but our political life."Sanders' remarks comes hours after the Iowa Democratic Party declared Buttigieg the winner in terms of delegates to the state convention. Buttigieg led Sanders in that metric by one-tenth-of-one-percentage-point margin with 26.

Former South Bend, Indiana Mayor Pete Buttigieg and former Vice President Joe Biden listen as Sen. Bernie Sanders makes a point during the Democratic presidential primary debate at Drake University on January 14, 2020 in Des Moines, Iowa.Later, Sanders shared headlines on Buttigieg's"billionaire donor list" to Twitter, writing"this election is fundamentally about whose side you are on" while promoting the hashtag #PetesBillionaires.
