“If Buttigieg really has been “available 24/7,” why are we facing yet another crisis?”
It wouldn’t be any different then if he was working on it 18 hours a day. He is an incompetent. He is over his head. He doesn’t know what to do, and was only appointed to the position because of politics. As evidence, the things they do choose to do, act to things worse.
He was marginally qualified to be a mayor or perhaps a Lt Gov of some lesser state.
In this case....the minute he said he was going to be gone two to three months...some alternate cabinet secretary should have been sworn in. I can’t imagine any major industry having a position like this, and some joker doing something like this.
Pete is in so far over his head that we would have to pipe daylight to him.
