The Trump campaign, the Republican National Committee and "Black Voices for Trump" sent coordinated mass emails during the Democratic debate Wednesday attacking Mayor Pete Buttigieg for his record on race and policing in his hometown of South Bend, Indiana.
Why it matters: As Axios' Jonathan Swan reported on Sunday, top Republicans are taking Buttigieg seriously as a potential general election candidate after his breakout poll in Iowa and his rise in New Hampshire. Several top Trump advisers have raised concerns that Buttigieg is more talented than Joe Biden and that he will be harder to brand as a leftist radical than Sens. Elizabeth Warren or Bernie Sanders.

Of course. Anybody who has a chance of becoming the front-runner will be slimed.

The only interest the RNC has in civil rights is taking away people's right to vote

Trump is about to be impeached for his attempt to kneecap Biden, but if someone else becomes the front-runner they'll get the Tump slime treatment, too.
