Joe Biden assailed Pete Buttigieg on Saturday, refusing to accept comparisons of the young mayor to Barack Obama and unleashing a harsh ad that denigrates Buttigieg’s municipal experience.
Biden, who acknowledged in Friday’s debate that he’s unlikely to win Tuesday’s New Hampshire primary against the surging Buttigieg and Bernie Sanders, argued Saturday that Buttigieg in particular is ill-equipped to defeat Donald Trump and lead the U.S. as president.
