Democratic presidential contenders Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-MN) and billionaire Tom Steyer couldn’t name the current Mexican president when asked during a Telemundo interview in Nevada on Thursday night, The Associated Press reports. When asked if they knew the name of the Mexican president, Klobuchar simply responded, “No.” Steyer replied, “I forgot.” Ex-South Bend, Indiana mayor Pete Buttigieg was the only one of the three interviewed who named President Andrés Manuel López Obrador. “Lopez Obrador, I hope,” he responded with a smile.
