Excerpts from article:

...Former South Bend, Indiana Mayor Pete Buttigieg elicited a moment of awkward silence during a campaign event in Iowa that's sparking comparisons to another viral moment during the 2016 election cycle.

...Bernie Sanders from Vermont, Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts and Amy Klobuchar of Minnesota - are stuck in Washington, D.C., serving as jurors in the Senate impeachment trial of President Trump, Buttigieg was seizing the opportunity to get face-to-face time with Iowa voters.

..."Come on!" Buttigieg exclaimed and awkwardly chuckled, to which the crowd applauded.

...After the audience didn't react to her victories, Klobuchar gave them permission to be excited.

...Like Buttigieg and Klobuchar, the former governor faced a lengthy silence from the crowd.
