Former South Bend, Ind., Mayor Pete Buttigieg is facing more accusations of plagiarism after a montage emerged comparing his campaign rhetoric to President Obama's.
Political outlet The Recount shared a video on Monday, showing several short clips of Buttigieg and Obama with similarly worded sayings during various stump speeches.
"Just a thought" and "this country was built" were the more generic phrases that were lined up between the two Democrats, but things get very similar when "church basements" are invoked.
Even more aligned were when Buttigieg and Obama each spoke of the country "shining as a beacon" to the world.
