    It's so funny they fobbed Secretary of Transportation off on him and then every piece of infrastructure in the US started falling apart at once

      I really hope someone in the future just reads an itemized list of transport infrastructure failures during his time as secretary in a future debate

    When I first heard that pete-eat was making all his interns do the "high hopes dance," I thought that cornball was actually making all those people dance to a song like this:

    I have no sense of taste in music so this was the first thing I thought of when people started talking about the high hopes song.

    Tell me it isn't somewhat plausible someone like pete, with his folksy Obama impression and plastic wrapped personality, wouldn't make his employees dance to that song like some HR head from hell.

    i remember hearing about this (mayo pete high hopes dance), but not knowing what it was.

    now that i know, i wish i didn't.

    also, the only times i've ever seen an amateur synchronized group dance that wasn't cringetown, it was Thriller.

    Damn, I was really hoping this was a recent video, like the most lanyard-y lanyards trying to use pete's raw charisma as transportation secretary to get people excited to vote for Biden... sicko-wistful
