Hes getting the post because he played an important role in stopping the mean socialist. No more, no less.
This appears to be Bidens MO: appointing people he knows or who have demonstrated loyalty to him or otherwise did a favor for him. As for Buttigieg specifically: hes no more or less qualified than past appointees, because neither party has taken public transportation seriously in decades. ... Copied to Clipboard!

It's people projecting their idea that there is any merit to success when there just objectively is none in our world. Know the right people and ingratiate yourself, prove you are willing to tow the line, that's qualification in politics. ... Copied to Clipboard!

"We simply don't know whether it would have made any difference yesterday morning as two children darted across the street, at an angle, and one of them, outside the crosswalk, was struck and killed," the mayor said. --- Podcast and Audiobook Board https://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/1364- View my ASCII art and others' at https://gfascii.art/ ...
