Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg speaks at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit, Wednesday, Sept. 14, 2022.Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg appeared on ABC's "The View" on April 8, 2022 and discussed high gas prices and inflation.Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg and Chasten Buttigieg attend a reception ahead of the start of the Invictus Games The Hague 2020 on April 15, 2022, in The Hague, Netherlands.
To be sure, Buttigieg remains a talented politician in a political party with an exceedingly shallow bench in desperate need of some younger faces. It’s not out of the question he could spin this entire episode into a net positive. But one thing is clear: he will need to take it head-on. For almost every Democrat , the federal government is the immediate scapegoat to every problem under the sun – even in the private sector.
Yes just like trump losing the election because wildfires on federal land. Def the nail in his coffin.
Pete know vacations isn’t that as important ant as abilities?
Hope so
They have no standards so he'll be in his position until Trump becomes president
Pete Buttigieg is doing a great job.
Hopeful.🤞
Another Biden clown.
Probably not cuz nothing happens to Democrats they get everything they freaking want if Republicans can't make a vote today I'm done independent here I come screw Republicans you can't freaking get your heads out of your own asses you guys make me sick
We told you. You hired him because he was a homosexual not because of his qualifications. Proving Liberals and Democrats are destroying America and the world. Notice every time a liberal and Democrat have an idea it goes down in flames. But the media and the devil builds it up
Down in flames
The blame cannot be put on Pete there is no facts behind this.
HE NEVER HAD A POLITICAL FUTURE. HE NEEDS TO FACE IT....
You REALLY are flexible in your support, and understanding, of capitalism, aren't you?
It is shameful that you got that position solely because you are queer.
I didn't realize Pete Buttigieg was the CEO of Southwest. Yawn. This is capitalism at its finest, folks. Corporate profits above all else. Greed is one of the seven deadly sins, something more people should remember these days.
POS!
Lol
You freaks would love that.
This man is no star! He is a scare on the American peoples lives.
At least, he’s letting the pride flag fly. 😂😂😂
GOP frontrunner is Trump who sowed unrest w/a seditious lie + sparked the Capitol attack to lend credence to a plot to steal the election he lost after mismanaging a pandemic b/c his first instinct is to lie. He then stole documents. So no, unless Democrats have higher standards
Hahaha Hahaha Hahaha Hahaha Hahaha Hahaha Hahaha Hahaha Hahaha Hahaha Hahaha Hahaha Hahaha Hahaha Hahaha Hahaha Hahaha Hahaha Hahaha Hahaha FOOLS
GRASPING at straws, Fox. Ya'll are annoying AF
No, he’s joe biden’s favorite.
Republicans must be worried he might run for president
We've never had so many transportation issues.
No! That’s Southwest issue
Shut up
And soooo much more
Impeach him
Reasonably intelligent people would think so.
No fan of him, but I can’t see how he’s responsible for the antics of a privately run company.
Lol no. But he makes republicans nervous because he’s so popular
Yet another Biden incomptent
It should be!
Grounded Changing his tune to carry the GoBrandon message was his crash landing.
It is past time for him to go. You are FIRED period.
Secretary Bootyjudge’s 15 minutes are up.
Yep
Actually he is not an executive at southwest!
Still might can blow his way on top
He will be OK He can just change pronouns. Remember the ones they want to put in schools. Not bashing, just saying what we are told
I think he is smart and doing a good job. I don’t care if he is gay or Democrat and I vote conservative.
Hope so cuz he doesn't know what the hell he's doing
Another Bingo Biden equity appointment. Young, gay male supposed to be up and coming. Unfortunately, again two major boxes went unchecked. Qualified and competent. Old Petie wasn't a very good mayor and clearly is in way over his head.
Why do you think he is responsible for a private company? And their computer issues? Ludicrous
Biden's entire entourage has been hired on ideology rather than merit and everyone can see what the results have been. Buttigieg might find a post in a strong Democratic town or city, but they will get what they deserve; incompetence.
It was grounded way way way before that
SW didn't cause it. He did it to himself.
Nope
Why ? He has no bearing on a private airline company.
I sure hope so
FPB!
He did a great job. Southwest did a very bad job
He talks a big game, but nothing will be done. Just threats. His type are all blowhards.
He really should be home, nursing his baby.
I don't get how it's his fault that a private company failed to do their jobs
It should be🤬
The Butt should not be there in the first place!
My hope it temporary He is a Beta male like his supervisor President Biden
Of course Fox propaganda network would start 💩
Think about it he could have been president 🤔😂 but to think about it it wouldn’t have been any worse than what we have🤔😂
Yes yes Yes yes
If he runs, this SouthWest 'disaster' will be spun into, first denial, then a right wing conspiracy, then if that fails the media Dem deep state will blame Putin.
Pete's future is not grounded at all but I can sense his Fox News coverage will be. We'll be hearing about the southwest airlines bags that didn't get delivered when Pete lead the DOT for 50 years!
I hope so
I tried to read this article,but as far as I can tell from the opening paragraphs, it is really about getting their audience to read an ad about “toe nail fungus”. Toe nail fungus sums up what is Fox News content astutely, I believe.
🤣🤣🤣 No
Nonsense
apologies, stopped at 'political future'
Did he actually have a political future. He is nothing more than a sawed off fanatic, irresponsible and irreverant
Who ?
Why would you say something this inane
Well yes the wonder of being out of the loop and gay.
Is the GOP's political future ground forever after having incited an attempt to overturn a free and fair election and failing to hold accountable those responsible? You're simply the billionaire class's version of Tass - a centrally-controlled propaganda machine.
nice try fox
You wish..😎
What does this guy do? He is paid to anticipate transportation issues and develop contingency plans.....nothing?
FOX NEWS WANTS GOV'T CONTROL OF AIRLINES!! Decide capitalism isn't cutting it anymore? More regulations necessary?
Let’s hope so. But then, he’s one of many current Democratic office holders who are unqualified for their positions……
He failed as mayor of South Bend. He's a failure now
He's not supposed to be in a federal government.
I actually liked him but he’s proven to be utterly worthless!
Just in case you missed every 15 minutes on Fox news
This is a Pete problem? Mmmm, probably not.
Well they gave all there dogs position that they don't qualify for and ladies and gentlemen these are results
Let’s hope so.
Is he running southwest airlines?
No.
Why? In what universe did he have anything to do with it?
Where is the article where he saved the travel of all of the other airlines? I mean if southwest is his fault then all of the other airlines must be his success. How afraid of him are the Republicans? Obviously very!
Everybody’s always looking to blame someone else for the destructive management of SWA. Just stop 🛑 and figure out the problem so this never happens again. Buttigiegs is in control of transportation but I’m pretty sure no one knew that this mess was coming.
He’s about the age Biden was when “his political career ended” being caught plagiarizing & lying about his entire background(no wonder the fake Repub from NY would try it)… “inept and fraudulent? Come get promoted inside the Swamp”🤪
Pete doesn’t run Southwest any more than you do.
Stupid question. You guys are scared of him, aren't you?
I don't see why it should be. It wasn't his fault Southwest couldn't deal with the problems.
No. You're making it a bigger thing than it is out of desperation.
Looks like his record qualifies him to be snowboard director of operations in the Everglades!!!!!
Well seeing as how Southwest is the one who pooped the bed here by using an out of date program that desperately needed updating...yeah not sure how this reflects on Pete at all.
😂
wow I didn't know Pete Buttigieg was the CEO of southwest the only airline to have issues... man the new things I learn from fox.
Does Pete Butigieg run Southwest Airlines?
My apologies to Fox News on there attack on Pete Buttigieg's handling of the weather during the turmoil at Southwest. Just what miracle would Fox News would have done if they had the call, just about the same, so why the hard line of attacks against him? (Bad News Reporting)
No, Democrats don’t choose leaders based on integrity or competence, but based on ideology and woke profile.
Are we forgetting that he ticks an important box? He will be covered and promoted. Afterward he will be an 'expert panelist' on some MSPMS screech fest on prime time.
Of course not!
Its as if Opinions are fabrications of reality! Bob Jordan, CEO of Southwest only opinion matters. For the folks in the back here is what he said-in his own word⬇️
What disaster? He was on this from the start. Southwest didn't call in advance to say we are cancelling flights. Major staffing shortages. Let's see Trump gave them $3.2B bailout in 2020 to stave off layoffs which they did anyway. Curious they donated $125,000+ to his campaign.🤡
Oh Fox.
Why is Pete Buttigieg to blame?
Buttplug. Pete Buttplug.
No, because nobody in the current administration is ever held accountable for anything. Why would anyone think he would be?
His future was grounded before it ever began just my opinion
Dumb question. Of course not. How was that his fault?
He is a light weight, cannot do the job. Waste!
This guy is totally useless!
He will continue to get in the back door.
Nope! Look at the rest of the Washington Ruling elite! To them failure is a matter of triumph, glory and promotion! Otherwise Nancy, Chuck, Adam Shifter and Weird Uncle Joe would have been out by now. He now officially qualifies to be DNCs next front Presidential runner.
No
PeteSucks
This guy is too busy buying children and jetting around the world to be bothered.
If we’re lucky.
So you’re saying the federal government should intervene and run private companies’ computer systems? Is that correct? Ok commies
You’ve met our president, right?
That is silly
Does Pete run Southwest?
So Republicans think we should nationalize the airlines and have all air travel under the control of the Secretary of Transportation. Awesome.
We can only hope!
He’s been MIA for the entire distribution problem. It’s probably better he was since he knows zip about transportation.
GOP wants free market …
No, but outside of checking identity politics boxes does anyone want to make the argument this guy has been effective at any job he’s done?
You need to go away too
sissy boy
Oh.... you definitely Made a mistake...he definitely has a future with antifa, the woke mob, and the group of people gender identifying as 'Vegetables'!!!
Hope so. He is an empty suit
Still wondering why a dim bulb was choosen.
It’s bummed
This guy is a train wreck
No, it’s Southwest’s problem, not the federal government’s. Besides I thought you are the deregulation crowd? What is going on?
No, they’ll probably give him a promotion in this upside down world.
It should be
That’s crazy! Why is it Pete’s fault for all the Southwest mess?!!!
I sure hope so!!
Considering he had absolutely NOTHING to do with it? No.
Quite the opposite. He’s pointing out their flaws and making sure it doesn’t happen again.
Nah he'll be fine. Maybe SW needs another giant bailout 🤣
He actually had a political future before SouthWest ofthan being a token poster child?
It should have been after his police disaster in South Bend. Being part of a certain privileged group, however, has given his political career extra life despite his exhibited incompetence.
Does anyone take Fox Entertainment seriously anymore? How's that Dominion lawsuit going?
lets hope so. He is worthless, could not even run the city of south bend.
Let’s hope
He sucks but Southwest spent billions the last few years on stock buy backs instead of upgrading infrastructure.
The Worst in American History but then he’s in good Company with Worst President POTUS Worst Speaker SpeakerPelosi Worst HSA AliMayorkas Worst VP VP Worst Press Sec PressSec the list is too long but you’ll get it…
That guy had a political future? Really? The states has really sunk into the realm of plain tofu and Wasa crackers!
I hope so.
Let's hope so because the name alone and then he's not very good at his job so he needs to go
He never had one
We can only hope it’s grounded!
So southwest and their overly antiquated system isn’t to blame. The CEO who will probably still get a helluva bonus isn’t to blame? S’matta with you clowns? Slow day in Chicago so you come with this tripe? Foh
No of course not he has the D by his name and will be protected
He’s a big nothing burger
As we've seen with dems political futures, a failure only means advancement
We can only hope that society relearns the word Accountability
Does he run SouthWest Airlines now? Why were the other airlines able to manage?
😆😅😂🤣🤡
He should have been fired when he took maternity leave and was wearing fake tits. Mental.
Democrats FAIL upwards
Why would it be?
Just call it what's it was., A cyber attack on there computer system
Did his career as a transportation secretary even start?
That's pretty funny this guy could not be elected dog catcher but look where he's at
That, and he’s an articulate incompetent. They try to mesmerize you with colorful word salads. But they have no experience and have no idea what they’re talking about. Sounds great though. And the plebes worship them.
He should step down now stay at home and take care of the kids.
Unbelievable. Where was he getting his kooky ideas from ?! 😃 smh
Just because your gay makes you a political genius. Biden filled positions with the odd and unusual and his freakish experiment has failed miserably. It still falls back on qualification and accomplishments and Pete had none.
Sorry missed the part where the government owns or is running Southwest and beers responsibly. Can you run that news Fox so we can catch up!
Badly written opinion piece indicating fear of Buttigieg's promising career. Quite a stretch to suggest someone who isn't in charge of Southwest (or the weather) be blamed.
European countries and Washington should adopt a decisive and deterrent policy towards the terrible monster of the Islamic Republic (the godfather of international terrorism, ISIS) and to overthrow it. The evil axis (Russia, Iran) must be destroyed. Otherwise, they are losers.
This is suggesting, even promoting socialized, government control of the private, for profit airlines. should decide if they are pro socialism or pro free market. It is impossible to be both
Yes, to busy getting hammered by Paul pelosi!
He should’ve been done after failing miserably at being a Mayor of a tiny town but since he’s a Gay breast feeding cuddlier Biden needed him on the Team of bumbling Buffoons to take down America
This guy does not give a shit about his job. Period
No it’s grounded because he hired an adviser by the name of Vali Nasr when he ran for the office of president.
Why is the private corporation never to blame? You can't simultaneously call for a government that 'governs least' and then shift all the problems of the private sector on to the government.
He needs to shut up and resign you are a fool
Absolutely not. Buttigieg is excellent (and mistake-ridden Southwest is a private company).
No … his political future is grounded in him being a crappy leader.
yes and he’s simply not prepared nor has answers when he’s needed most. Guess he’s in bed with SW Airlines CEO.
I mean Trump AIrlines didn't stop certain other presidential campaigns
It should be.
It might see like he's on the bottom now, but he could turn it around and be on top
Democrats: 'What are your qualifications?' Pete Buttigieg: 'I'm gay' Democrats: 'You're hired!'
Hopefully
Let’s hope so.
