Buttigieg on Biden Economic Polls: We’ve Had ‘Rough Few Years,’ Especially with COVID Effects, Polarization
Breitbart ^ | 11/21/2023 | IAN HANCHETT

Posted on 11/21/2023 5:59:11 AM PST by ChicagoConservative27

On Monday’s broadcast of CNN’s “Inside Politics,” Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg responded to a question on President Joe Biden’s poor poll numbers on the economy by stating that everything isn’t perfect, and “Americans have had a rough few years, especially when you think about COVID and what that did to our society and effects that we are still working through. You think about some of the political polarization that’s going on. We’re not out there saying that all of the work is done. We’re out there pointing to the good work that we’re doing.”

Buttigieg said, “Well, a big part of our job, a big part of my job is to explain the good news in terms of the physical improvements that are coming to roads and bridges and tunnels and airports and ports around the country, and in terms of things we’re seeing with the big picture economically, inflation coming back down, gas prices, as you mentioned, coming back down. I would add to that, airfare is becoming much more reasonable lately. And unemployment that I don’t think has stayed this low for this long in my lifetime. But that doesn’t mean you can go around saying everything’s perfect. And we recognize that. Americans have had a rough few years, especially when you think about COVID and what that did to our society and effects that we are still working through. You think about some of the political polarization that’s going on. We’re not out there saying that all of the work is done. We’re out there pointing to the good work that we’re doing.”

This is the state of our country folks. Buttgagger should be in a mental institution. Instead he’s ‘running’ one of the largest departments in the executive branch. Clown world. What a disgrace.

The cabinet position is just building his resume for the next time he runs for President. Without a doubt he will do so again.

“We’ve Had ‘Rough Few Years,’ Especially with COVID Effects, Polarization”

Translated: “We’re incompetent and this is the only excuse we could come up with”.

Buttigieg gaslighting: “Well, a big part of my job w/ Biden is to explain the physical
improvements coming to roads, bridges, tunnels and airports and ports around the country."

15 years after Minneapolis bridge collapses----Buttigeig means these "improvements."

Prerequisite for being a leftist:
-Blame everyone and everything else.
- Deem everything a crisis.
- Label everything against socialism “extremists” and “racists”.

#4 have all of your positions and actions completely defended by the Propaganda Media, even when you change your position to its opposite.

It’s good to be a Dem.

<><>You get to Label everyone against you as “extremists”

So that’s your job. “Explaining” the improvements “coming”
You could confuse transportation secretary with getting coffee for your boss and still be more useful.

Goes to show, just having a familiarity with Bosco Blvd and the Hershey Highway does not qualify one to be transportation secretary 😖
