Buttigieg Finally Makes It to East Palestine, but It Does Not Go Well
By Nick Arama | 11:45 AM on February 23, 2023

On Thursday, Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg finally made it to East Palestine, Ohio — almost three weeks since the train derailment there on February 3 that resulted in chemical contamination of the area. That was only after a huge public backlash to the lack of response by Buttigieg and the Biden team, and former President Donald Trump going to the site. Except for a tweet, Joe Biden hasn’t made any public statement on the disaster. Indeed, he went to Ukraine to give them millions instead and said Ukraine had captured his heart.

Trump came with water and supplies on Wednesday. He bought a ton of McDonald’s for first responders and residents in the area.

Buttigieg came with a hard hat and an attitude, at 7 a.m. in the morning.

Reporters tried to ask him questions but he blew them off and his press secretary got up in their faces. She said she didn’t want to have a conversation on camera for a public appearance with her boss, and that asking that she do so was “aggressive.”

Isn’t answering questions on camera part of the job of a press secretary? Especially when they need to answer up for how badly they have dealt with this. This is like rubbing salt into the wound when they wouldn’t respond.

Buttigieg ducked another question from a reporter about his failure to do his job.

WOW - Many of the people in East Palestine are refusing to meet with Pete Buttigieg. Leaks from Pete’s staffers are saying the trip has been a DISASTER and EMBARRASSMENT!

Wow....

What a PR CF.

I've had corporate media training back in the day, and this lady busted about 90% of the understood guidelines of how to deal with situations like this.

What freakin' amateurs.

I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.

If Biden was a serious president, he would be asking for Petey’s  resignation now.

But he checks the right boxes, so…

"Reporter: "Was it a mistake not to come here sooner?"

Buttigieg: "What I tried to do was balance two things: my desire to be involved and engaged and on the ground, which is how I'm generally wired to act, and my desire to follow the norm.". (Video)

LOL - Pete Buttigieg is left waiting in the HALL while Rudy Giuliani speaks with East Palestine Mayor Trent Conaway – who slammed the administration's response to the toxic train derailment during their 45-minute meeting

Who would have thought that the guy who couldn't even fix the potholes while mayor of a town with less than 100,000 residents is doing a bad job after being put in charge of our country's transportation.

Reporter: "You sent your first tweet expressing concern for the residents of East Palestine a week and a half after the accident happened. Was that waiting too long?"

Buttigieg: "The answer to your question is yes. I felt strongly about this and could have expressed that sooner" (Video)

A famously ARROGANT ANGRY homosexual (breastfeeding anal sex guy, thinks he is a woman) whose name begins with Butt is weird. The jokes write themselves.

Lost his "train" of thought?  Seriously?
If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.
