A former President George W. Bush administration official blasted Democratic presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg over his lack of experience in national politics, which she argues makes him underqualified for the Oval Office.
Sheila Bair, the former chairwoman of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. (FDIC), said Democrats are almost maniacal in their eagerness to oust President Trump and in doing so are less focussed on the qualifications of their candidates.
Enter Pete Buttigieg, whose primary asset seems to be a thin résumé,Bair wrote in an op-ed published Wednesday in The Washington Post.

Trump was the head of a major corp worth billions with employees all over the world.
Buttplug is a mentally ill small town Mare, hated by half those in his city.

Nothing in Trump’s resume qualified him in national politics, which is the standard she is using to disqualify mayor Pete.

It’s not my opinion at all. It’s the opinion of Sheila Bair. That is why I’m questioning it. You would have thought that Donald Trump would be exhibit number one to point out that she doesn’t what she is talking, but people are actually taking her opinion seriously.

"Former Bush official blasts Buttigieg: 'He is not ready'"
So does this mean that BushBots and other RINOs are actually cheering for Mayor Buttplugg, and are venting in frustration that he probably won't be able to beat Trump?

Would a heterosexual white male mayor of a small Midwestern city be considered a serious presidential candidate?
Would a white, first term junior senator from Illinois, that no one knew anything about, be considered?

“Him being a queer ‘married’ to another man disqualifies him in my book.”
And sometimes it’s amusing when he’s being discussed on some panel, and whether or not he has a chance. The elephant in the room is that he’s a frickin’ HOMOSEXUAL and voters are offended by that. But the discussion tap dances around that and brings up other issues he has. You can see that they’re biting their tongues wanting to say, “My Christian, black, Hispanic, etc., constituents won’t vote for a HOMOSEXUAL.” But it never is mentioned. Funny — sort of.

Typical Bushie - she claims she’s Republican and never voted for a Dem, but say’s she’d endorse Pete Butt-delver if he had more seasoning to be like Obama - and she didn’t vote for Trump...
