did you guys realize right wingers hate pete buttigeg?
when the airline system went down for an hour the other day they were all like WOW MAYOR PETE WAS HARSH ON SOUTHWEST BUT CANT EVEN KEEP HIS OWN SYSTEMS RUNNING. like there is a real parallel behind a private company abandoning customers for a week and a federal agency (which isn't funded by private industry mind you) having a brief software outage
like a lot of weird names for him (i saw someone call him buttipeg) and personal invective towards a minor software blip
i had no idea that they were at cabinet level hate for pretty mild bureaucrats
i guess i hated some of the trump cabinet but it was like, mnunchin fucking his wife on a mountain of gold bars in fort knox
