The gay former South Bend mayor, presidential candidate and U.S. Transportation Secretary, who lives in Michigan, has remained mum about his future plans.
As someone who knows a lot of party libs, they absolutely love him. He's very eloquent and keeps trying to reach across the aisle by going on Fox. A lot of people really expect him to be the next Obama from speaking skills alone.
God my mom is one of these. She adores him because "He's very articulate and well-educated." Zero analysis of his actual policies or his effectiveness. She thinks people don't like him solely based on the fact he's gay and no understanding of how many people see him as a rat. Or how he epitomizes one of the main issues organizing queer spaces, which is white gay men assuming leadership and speaking over women, PoC, trans people, and even bisexual men. That's just rainbow washed patriarchy.
"Wow, why are you blaming the gay man for some trains derailing? Are you aware of how many trains derail every year before 2020? Why are you holding the gay, veteran transportation secretary to a different standard? Oh, you're bringing up he chose to work for the most evil consultant firm basically in the world? After serving in the imperial military aiding the murder of third worlders? He's gay. Just say you hate him for that. No, I didn't ask about the bread pricing incident. Also, let me mention again... gay. Military veteran. Was a mayor of some tiny town and didn't improve anything at all there. Have you heard him talk? Second best white imitator of Obama, after governor Shapiro, of course. We need more "guy who talk goodly!" The substance doesn't matter! Just feed me smooth, blended bullshit and I'll slurp it up! I'll slurp that milkshake!..."
Kinda figured they'd hide ratboy in the attic after how bad of a job he did as secretary of transportation

Dems gearing up to repeat the mistake they didn't learn with Kamala Harris or Hillary Clinton
Can't overstate how completely out of touch they are eh

Probably should stop there
Huh, Pete lost? Probably because he was gay. There's no other explanation possible, I will never learn
