Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg trolled for a free trip to space Tuesday before lamenting such a venture was not “in my budget.”

As Amazon king Jeff Bezos’s space organ, dubbed New Shepard, lasted 10 minutes away from Earth, Buttigieg told the Economic Club of Washington, DC, virtually, “I would go up in a heartbeat. I think it’s such exciting stuff,” the AP reported.

You can stay in space for all I care.

He’s a pinko, Jim.

We should set up a gofundme page for him, raise enough to get him there but not back, works for me!

A shuttle voyage wasn’t in John Glenn’s budget either but as quid pro Joe would say, c’mon man, he supported Bill Clinton and got rewarded.

...”I think it’s such exciting stuff,”

...that’s what he said.

[Yo-Yo]

Hey, Pete, make it a one-way ticket and I’ll chip in a couple of bucks.

[a fool in paradise]

People are only going to give to that GoFundMe if he will remain in orbit.

[noiseman]

He’d be a perfect candidate for a “ride” on Phallus 1.

[RBW in PA]

Set go fund me pages for all of them. It’s only a matter time till one explodes or crashes.

[LIConFem]

He’s just “impressed” by the shape of Bezos’ space organ.

[txeagle]

Seeing that his s**t is always packed.....

[Zathras]

All this drama over a flight shorter than Alan Shepard’s Mercury sub-orbital.
Musk is probably 20 years ahead of these clowns and probably 5 years ahead of NASA.

[ProtectOurFreedom]

Amazon king Jeff Bezos’s space organ...

A "space 'ORGAN'"?

[M Kehoe]

What a great name he has, Booty Judge. Just like his partner, Chasen.

The irony.

5.56mm

[faithhopecharity]

what a great idea!
let’s all contribute and
shoot him up to Uranus!

[Magnum44]

I'll offer to kick Buttboy in the ass as high as I can.

[norwaypinesavage]

I wonder what he’ll do for his CO2 offset after he gets his ‘free’ trip?

[wally_bert]

I lost whatever respect I had for John Glenn for that.

[Trumpisourlastchance]

I will chip in $500 if he goes on the first mission to Mars. Then he will be out of our hair.

[Salgak]

I say we give him a free trip into orbit. Then push him out the door, and make him walk home. . . (evil grin)
