Oh boy, I love failing upwards 
Jack Nicholson voice: "I got this rat, this gnawing, cheese eating fuckin' rat..." My first google search was just his name and this was at the top of my screen.
Tbf he does look like a rat, or the cover of Ratm's Evil Empire
Kinda figured they'd hide ratboy in the attic after how bad of a job he did as secretary of transportation
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.
Can't overstate how completely out of touch they are eh 
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.

Dems gearing up to repeat the mistake they didn't learn with Kamala Harris or Hillary Clinton
"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!..."
Probably should stop there
Huh, Pete lost? Probably because he was gay. There's no other explanation possible, I will never learn
I was watching a video about UHC and the DDD strategy, and they mentioned that McKinsey was the consultants that really introduced these strategies to the health insurance industry.
In the intro to his book, Feinman wrote that insurance companies began to significantly reconsider the claims process in the 1990s when they "became a profit center rather than the place that kept the company's promise."
A major part of this shift occurred when insurance companies, including Allstate in 1992, hired consulting giant McKinsey & Company, he said.

do it, maybe when he gets washed we'll finally never have to hear from him again
They'll trot him out for the 2028 primaries if he loses, so that he can get waxed by whatever unspeakable horror dems rally behind at that time (but they can look 'progressive' because he's gay and speaks like an LLM emulating Obama)
sigh yeah I was being too optimistic, repeated failure is the best way to become a permanent fixture in democratic party politics
:(
you know what you did
Michigan GOP now falling all over each other to run against him.
Democratic National Convention in negotiations to provide for GOP governor of Michigan in 2026
DNC/GOP has a nice ring to it.
What about Whitmer?
Term limited
It's her turn
what happened to "he cant win because he's gay and short"?
Adomian as Gorka voice "When you are short appear tall! When you are gay... appear straight!"

Conspiracy Theory: Pete Buttigieg had his name legally changed so that any obvious riff on his stupid-ass butt-like name would sound vaguely homophobic.
Great name for getting into utilities, though. I'd trust a man with the name butt for handling my waste treatment needs.
??? are you saying his name was worse before he 'changed it' please make sense Hexbear commentator

Yeah, used to be shithouse
