Buttigieg, who mounted a failed bid for the Democratic presidential primary, is set to be nominated as transportation secretary by the man who did win the primary and the general election, President-elect Joe Biden, several news organizations reported Tuesday.
Buttigieg, 38, attracted attention during his 2020 bid for president with his combination of progressivism and pragmatism – his health care plan was called "Medicare for All Who Want It," a move toward a single payer plan without forcing people to give up their private insurance. His hyper-intellectualism contrasted with his "Mayor Pete'' accessibility. He kept his sexual orientation private until 2015, when then-Indiana Gov. Mike Pence signed the Religious Freedom Restoration Act, which allows people to assert religious beliefs as a legal defense.
As mayor, Buttigieg initiated a program called "Smart Streets," which added bike paths, sidewalks, roundabouts and other infrastructure improvements meant to make downtown more pedestrian-friendly and appealing to new business. He has said the project spurred more than $100 million in direct investment, revitalizing the urban area.

Nice headline. I bet he’s tapping that.
Biden Taps Buttigieg.
Who’d have thought it.
Pete really isnt a trans guy though
There were some hilarious comments in an earlier thread on this.
TRANS-portation
Oops. Should have searched.
Unless the President can pull something out of thin air, these morons are going to DC. At that time, these very same incompetent, narcissistic, greedy, intolerant, morons are going to be such a disaster that it will be hard to believe. It would be fun to watch if it weren’t so bad for all of us.
What a freak show. I hope they enjoy themselves in prison.
Where exactly did Joe “tap him?”
No, i dont want to know....
“This EV company gets this much from US taxpayers, and this EV company gets this... but China gets it all...”
Pete’s “forevermore” speech: LOL!
Yes, quite the belly laugh.
Time to build the Hershey Highway!
When the revolution comes I don’t plan to see anyone go to jail. Hanging from lampposts is a better description.
Pete Buttigag is way too old for Biden to tap that.
He knows alot about dirt roads

Biden taps Pete’s Butt
Oh boy!
More chocolate highways!
