The Buttigieg presidential buzz has penetrated the White House

At 39, he is the most recognizable and powerful transportation secretary in modern memory. And he wants you to believe his eye isn’t on the future.

PHOENIX — Pete Buttigieg has long been a man in a hurry.

Since 2010, he has run for treasurer of Indiana, mayor of South Bend, chair of the Democratic National Committee, and president of the United States. At 39, he is one of the most omnipresent and newly-powerful members of President Joe Biden’s Cabinet. But he says he’s not thinking about what comes next, even as he’s buzzed about as a potential Biden heir.

“I’d say the other thing that I'm really enjoying about this job, although it's very demanding and obviously requiring a lot, is that this is the least I have had to think about campaigns and elections in about a decade and that's a very good thing,” he told POLITICO on Friday, amidst people in hard hats and bright yellow safety vests in a construction zone near Terminal 4 at Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport.

While Buttigieg says he’s not contemplating the race to be Biden’s successor, inside the West Wing, others are imagining it for him. His name is sometimes discussed by aides as a natural Democratic presidential nominee in 2028 — or 2024 if the president opts not to run.

“Nobody in the West Wing shuts that down,” said one person with direct knowledge of the conversations. “It’s very open.”

He's Heels-Up Harris in man-drag.

"Penetrated" is one word that should never be used when taking about buttboy.

Psaki told him it'd be best if he circled back.

The puns just seem to write themselves.

There's some real Macbethian intrigue and Carter-esque incompetence happening in that White House.  Seems like they need a stronger White House Chief of Staff.

Decided not to post what I originally typed that might be construed as homophobic.

And at this point, pretty much anything SJW-ish has put me over the edge of anger.

Anyone who seriously entertains the idea that Buttigieg has qualified himself for any significant role is not a credible thinker.  The "most recognizable and powerful transportation secretary in modern memory" is known for taking two months off to take care of his adopted baby during an historic and unprecedented supply chain crisis.

Harris was nominated for VP purely because she is a black woman; she is without real qualification.  Buttigieg was nominated for Secretary of Transportation purely because he is homosexual; he is without real qualification.

That two identitarian tokens are viewed as the rival successors to the office of POTUS should tell everyone that The Republic is doomed if Ds remain in office.  Either the country can survive, or the D party can survive, but not both.

If the legacy news media and academia are not effectively addressed a President Buttigieg becomes a possibility. In order for that to happen the GOP as a party needs to - at long last - recognize the acute danger the republic is in. There is no other voice loud enough or cohesive enough to do the job.

I'm not real confident that will ever happen.

Never put "Buttigieg" and "Penetrated" in the same sentence.

Pete took a months-long secret paternity leave while our supply chains melted down.
Pete is anything but powerful, he is absent and incompetent.
Joe Biden’s cabinet is as useful as his sad pocket square.

I figure they must be referencing Joes memory which is only good for 5 minutes max before it resets to zero.

We don't have a country anymore. What are people writing?  lol. We are in a dictatorship.  That freedom sailed Nov. 2020.  It just bores me to tears, talking about 'elections' and votes.

I cannot believe Politico went with this title.

I wonder if it went in  the back entrance?

So many issues, and not even a pregnant thought.

There was a reason voters chose a demented old pervert instead of young looking one.

Biden's polyp may be benign, but his mere presence in the WH is cancerous.
