I need more information on Pete Buttigieg. Because at first blush he seems presidential

I don't know. But I do know that under no circumstances can Biden run in 2024. None.

I can't watch or listen to a clearly compromised dude anymore. It's an embarrassment.

What is with all the Biden hate?

He so far has been the best President, policy wise, since LBJ. Or maybe better as he hasn't gotten the US stuck with troops overseas in a losing cause.

Don't think so.

Put NATO back together.

Passed the most sweeping legislation since Reagan.

Nope.

Not a great public speaker, which is a negative, for-sure, but is the best President since LBJ.

I’m hoping AOC runs in 2024. I’d love to bury the Progressive wing once and for all.

Like a number of your hopes and dreams this is delusional.

I haven't checked, but she might not even be qualified, there is an age requirement.

Bernie can run again, then. Same result.

If not Biden the Governor of CA has been positioning himself for a run.

Learning a lesson from democrats, republicans should support her ...

Your vitriol toward progressives is really weird Penn. The progressives have been Biden’s most consistent voting block.

With all the Republicans voting for her in the general she would just make it as the youngest President ever, beating both TDR (youngest ever) and JFK (youngest elected) by over 5 years.

The Russian Quisling Agent isn’t busting his buttons about openly gay GOP candidate George Santos winning NY 3rd Congressional district.

Why’s that?

Not up to date on the specifics of NY congressional races. Thanks for the update. Glad Mr. Santos won!

Why hasn’t the Russian Quisling Agent mover to Alabama, Florida or Texas yet?

All the promotion but he claims he can’t or won’t move.  Maybe he can’t afford the moving costs from St Petersburg to any of those GOP strong holds or could be he was an insufferable mother-in-law in a previous life who constantly complained doing nothing else.

I saw him recently downtown - nice guy. Very, very, tiny man.

Pete Buttigieg:  

Failed presidential candidate
Failed at supply chain management
Failing at airline transportation

Swill leftists?   Let's vote for him in 2024!!

DWags wrote:He really kicked republicans asses yesterday regarding southwest

Pete humiliates Gym Jordan.

Pete is the Sec of Transportation and is charged with leadership of our transportation system yet he is asking for specific policies from an Ohio congressman?  



Oh, and Elon Musk thanks you for the business.

I consider myself a leftist, I'm the one who shared the link/tweet, and I don't want to vote for Pete for anything. Try a little harder next time, maybe.

We’re all one person to him cam. One person said they like Pete so every liberal likes Pete. If wwg1wga applies to him then it must apply to you as well, so his logic is sound.

Come on Boss. The thread title literally includes "at first blush he seems presidential". Forgive me for thinking that meant liberals (everybody on this board except me) like the guy.

Buttigieg in September said on "The Late Late Show With James Corden" that airline travel "is going to get better by the holidays." Nina Turner, the national co-chair of Sanders' 2020 presidential campaign, blamed the problem on Buttigieg's outsized ambitions for higher office.

"What’s happening with the railroads, airlines & the supply chain is a result of a small city mayor being made the Secretary of Transportation as a means to pad his resume for President," she tweeted Tuesday. "Secretary Buttigieg is a prime example of failing up."

The Russian Quisling Agent is such a dumbfuck he waited 4 years for a Trump transportation initiative and he wants to dis Sec of Transportation Pete Buttigieg for underfunded rail and for Southwest Airlines running on the cheap whose CEO is  blaming a overwhelmed, aged computer system.

But when you are a GOP fanboy like the Russian Quisling it doesn’t matter that since 2015 Southwest has spent $8B in stock buybacks and recently $1.6B for a stock dividend in January 2023.  

But in the Quisling’s world it’s Sec of Transportation’s fault for Southwest ignoring its employees and industry experts telling them to update their IT since BEFORE the Quisling’s hero Trump was elected with his often promised NEVER DELIVERED transportation policy.

But when you are doing Putin’s and Trump’s bidding you post selected OPINIONS from a losing Presidential advisor.

Quisling, tell us all about Trump’s Transportation policy and how much Sec of Transportation (and Mitch McConnell’s wife) Elaine Chao got the policy that never was implemented.

It has been pointed out that instead of investing money into a new computer system Southwest Airlines did stock buybacks so the former CEO could retire with even money.

The transportation system in the USA failed big time during Christmas 2022 which followed unprecedented failure in our supply chain.

Who does Gramps hold accountable? The actual Sec of Transportation? Nope.

Reagan, who reversed the laws which created the golden 50 years for the 99% in the economy.

Any dipshit blaming the secretary of transportation when the airlines implode MUST think we live in some sort of socialist wet dream.

Instead of investing money in the business, after the "founding CEO" who was focused on improving "operations", which is business "speak" for what the business actually makes revenue doing, the next two CEO's were all about "finance", which is business speak for "how can we increase the stock price with the least amount of expense".

Operations management has been shouting at the "C" suite for years that the operations systems are antique and need to be replaced, but the "C" suite has been cutting operation expensed through the bone and using the "savings" to do stock buy backs, which make the "C" suite guys much wealthier. This is the same thing that the Boeing management has done to Boeing, ruining one of the best run companies in the world. In this case, Southwest's computer systems were unable to manage the operations crisis due to the stock buy backs causing lack of investment. Fuck Reagan, and the horse he road in on.

The Russian Quisling Agent wants to act like Trump never had a Sec of Transportation and never promised a $1T infrastructure program over 10 years.
After the 2016 Trump promised to make infrastructure a major focus.

https://www.pbs.org/newshour/show/trump-promises-make-infrastructure-major-focus  

Then Trump with his Sec of Transportation promised a $1T / 10 year infrastructure plan

https://www.highloads.com/news/president-trump-promises-big-improvements-for-transportation


But then in 2017 Trump’s budget outlined a 12.7% REDUCTION for infrastructure.

https://www.governing.com/archive/gov-trump-budget-plan-bodes-poorly-transportation-advocates.html

Trump apologist Russian Quisling Agent who  tied his nose to Trump’s ass for years wants everyone to believe the Southwest debacle belongs at the feet of Biden appointee Sec of Transportation Buttigieg.  

Like a the whole season of Dallas that was a dream.

Keep on lying Russian Quisling Agent.

Anecdotal evidence but I’m noticing a lot of my Bernie friends are coming around to Joe Biden. I think Pete is just going to have to wait.
