I love the way he responds with grace and dignity. He doesn't need to call names or be a bully. I respect Pete Buttigieg and hope he considers running for the presidency.
Hmmm so what has he done for our nation? The only reason he is in office is because of an agenda. He has NO CLUE on how to discuss in a meaningful way on our transportation system. Ask him what he THINKS ABOUT aviation. Failure on multiple levels.
"transportation should always connect...never divide" AMEN!!!
Can you name an instance where transportation was made to "divide?"
@@trekkeruss Look at the highways in your city. Look at where they lie between the rich and poor areas.
@@photonbeams80 That is meaningless. How would I know if the highway was built before or after the so-called rich or poor areas became a thing?
Stop looking for racism where it doesn't exist. Even if it existed when it was built, doesn't mean it continues today. It only does if you want it to.
@@trekkeruss It's called history. Do you not know your city's history?
White people are poor too, where did I say anything about racism?
Do you live in a suburban bubble?
@@photonbeams80 When someone makes a claim, it should be backed up with evidence. Why should I bother to know the history of the roads or highways here in the Washington D.C. area? I get around just fine, and I am not rich, poor, black, or white.
Give me an example in your area if you can, otherwise saying “transportation should always connect, never divide” is just pretty sounding political nonsense.
I am a lifelong Republican and I'd vote for Pete in a presidential race.
Bull.....a real Republican would never say that!
@@dathpo A real Republican would never vote for Trump. That's a fact.
@@dathpo "Real Republican" would never support Putin!
Its so obvious now, These Trumpies are so fake and empty...haha
So basically you’re a Reagan Democrat. Any politician who appeals to a Reagan Democrat will never get my support.
@@jet4tv Silly rabbit, or what rhymes with. ! You still believe in the BS Russian collusion scam that has been proven false. Get a clue! The laughs on you!
“Transportation should always connect, never divide.”
I have never heard of Pete Buttigieg until I watched his first presidential townhall in 2019 - I have been a supporter of his ever since. #weallbelong
He's all talk .....pathetic
"transportation should always connect, never divide"
This guy's such a smooth talker, he can take something as bland as infrastructure policy and make it poetry.
A great talker, but doesn't know what tf he's doing.
'Divide' is a 'variant' of 'individual' which is one of the 'smooth talkers'' 157 Item 'core vocabulary' components.
However, with a vocabulary of 157 words it may be mathematically possible to 'generate' approximately 50,000 different sentences/phrases/statements each containing just two of the 157 total number of words in the 'core vocabulary' traditionally used by a political leader. So, imagine how much further it might be possible to go with a 157 item vocabulary if the 'possible combinations' contained in a sentence/phrase/statement of these words were not merely different combinations/orderings/sequencings of just two words per sentence/phrase/statement, i.e., in a very long sentence it might be the case, for example, that more than twenty instead of just two of the 157 'core' words is featured!? How many [at least?] different possible combinations of twenty words can be constructed from a total of 157 different words?
Poetry? Okay, but more like a filthy limerick than a Shakespearean sonnet.
He is not only a smooth talker, he is a leader and a very smart one. He would make a great president because he is honest and transparent, he loves America and wants what is best for this country. It’s a pity that Americans think they are not ready to a gay president. It should be about the best person for the job; not about party politics and loyalty, our loyalty should be to America and it’s people. I am happy president Biden did not look on his sexual orientation but on his morals, his leadership, his brilliant mind and what he could bring to the table. I do hope that hypocritical voters will start thinking about our survival as a country and not a leader’s sexual orientation. It would be nice to have the secretary as our president in the near future, while he is still young.
This guy is seriously impressive
That's hilarious
Refreshing to hear from an educated man politician answering questions without name calling, providing difficult answer not lying.
All.he does it lie. Check your facts
@@highfashionwins The only liar is the previous president you voted for!!
So you are saying that he is nothing like brandon.
@@paulthompson6553 Pete is a big time swamp creature and was hired because of his orientation
ua-cam.com/video/jdoi4IG8e_8/v-deo.html
Yes, the opposite of trump.
It's so odd and amazing to see and hear someone who is decent, intelligent, articulate and informed.
There is something wrong with a person who gets aroused at the sight & smell of a sewage waste facility. It might as well be a day spa for Pete. He's an idiot & is sending this country right down the crapper.
I’m so used to cruel, power-hungry, corrupt politicians I keep waiting for the big reveal… and he’s only proven himself honorable and loyal. But homophobic bigots will never accept him. Sad.
@@bigtime9589 anyone but 45.
LMFAO!!!!
We got brutally weaned off "intelligible" and "decent" and "responsible" in the last admin. Let's hope we can maintain these standards no matter which party is in office. There are signs of progress toward normalization, where differing ideologies don't stop responsible legislative cooperation, but they're still fragile.🤔🤞🤞
Oh Pete, you’re a rare one. Love you’re honestly♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Lmao pete and honesty do not belong in the same sentence
seek help, your unit is defective.
He has my vote whenever he runs for real. He's knowledgeable, dedicated, and has a great deal of true compassion and empathy. We need competent, principled heads of state again. We've been without it for so long.
only truly ignorant people would vote for pete
🤢🤮
He isn't knowledgeable about anything. He never should have been appointed.
Lmfao pathetic
He has my vote too
He should have been our president. He was and still is the most dignified and qualified person that I’ve seen in over 50 years. I hope he runs again.
He will. He's my dark horse candidate for 2028. Maybe at least he'll be VP
The man is brilliant. I supported Mayor Pete early on in the primary process...Can't wait to say President Pete one day.
I like him, trust him, too.
I would never trust him. He has already wasted billions of tax dollars.
He is also a pervert
ua-cam.com/video/5jl6Z2vvp-0/v-deo.html
I wouldn't! His sexuality isn't the issue either!
He was a mayor of a small city. Would you trust your mayor to run the infrastructure of the US?
@@youWoNtLikeMe04 And you trusted washed up TV reality star to run the whole country.
Lets compare Pete to some of Trumps cabinet members:
Micheal Flynn a indicted conspirator or Roger Stone a discount Batman villain. Or... My Pillow Guy and Rudy Four Seasons Total Landscaping Giuliani.
Give us all a break, will ya?
Agree, he seems so straightforward; that trait is getting to be a rarity in today's political climate.
The US infrastructure deficiencies started with the Regan administration's tax reform. That tax reform bill greatly decreased the funds going to the states for their roads, bridges, dams, etc. It's a hot mess.
Yup and human infrastructure too...the beginning of the end of the middle class.
@@jessicabixler1658 human infrastructure? no wonder our highways and bridges are crumbling.
And continued with the Trump administration.
Funny when tanks became obsolete in military doctrine, same time roads in Americas fall apart!
And remind me what the Clinton administration and Obama administration did about the infrastructure...oh yeah, NOT A DAMN THING.
As a 47 year wife of an Interstate Trucker and business owner, thank you Mr. Secretary for tackling the issue of dangerous bridges that cause us who have loved ones out there continually crossing dangerous bridges anxiety and fear that comes along with their career.
The roads & crazy drivers are making our highways a death trap.

You hate America that much, eh? Wasn't Biden enough?
I love listening to this guy speak!
I don't! He's another incompetent appointee of Joe Biden. He Took off six weeks, and no one even missed him.
You’re not too smart are you?!? Lol!

Our roads have been ignored for years. I pray we rebuild all of them in the next few years! This is where I want to spend “my” tax money!

Companies like Amazon should be taxed to fund our infrastructure. They certainly use the roads plenty enough
"As long as it benefits the people who live there, the politics are what they are". In the end it should be about the people.
Let us not forget that the majority of Republicans in Congress and Senate voted against the Infrastrcture Bill
And the democrats wouldn’t even consider infrastructure when Trump was in office. Talk about hypocritical.
@@wu7690 Republicans controlled the House and the Senate during the first two years of the Trump presidency. They can pass an infrastructure bill without any support from Democrats
@@wu7690 Lmao you sure got shown up by Milhouse.
Republicans are jokes!!!
@@thewaffle003 republicans are jokes? Lest we forget the party who wants to defund the police, stop drilling for oil DURING an energy crisis, and has done nothing to combat inflation. I think you misspoke. You meant to say democrats, right? .
@@wu7690 Nope. Defund the police was a terrible idea, stopping oil drilling may have been questionable for right now (though will undoubtedly provide a boon for which we are thankful in the future), and I'm actually not sure what they can do to combat inflation right now.
Despite all that, still LEAGUES better than Republicans. As someone who is happy to acknowledge and take to task all Democrats on their BS, the Republican party is still horrible and bad for this country.
You literally have Tucker Carlson providing Russia with propaganda. Trump doing the same. Yes, these guys are jokes.
You can do better than to support them.
I never thought I would get to see two openly gay men in positions of power like this.
The problem is the government gives too much money to the military industrial complex and it has gotten to the point where the infrastructure is falling apart and it's taking a long time to fix bridges, roads, pipes, and power lines. It's gone on too long and now we are at the point where the construction is literally going on everyday.
There are so many talented, young politicians in America with great ideas yet we seem to keep electing the same old men who simply want to maintain the status quo.
We need to make safe anything we already have, before we add anything new....Please! The public needs confidence in our long standing infrastructure, roads, damns, airports, bridges. These are not things that can be compromised, but as Americans should be rights and relied upon.
Finally our frail infrastructure is being addressed. Party politics is destroying America. Politicians were put there by the people to do what is best for the country. not to be decided and unsupported if you are not the party in power.
The answer to your problem has stop voting Republican
Paternity leave should be an industry standard.
When there is a national crisis (like the supply backup) and the man responsible to resolve that crisis is not doing his job, that is a problem for the nation.
@@badboysmojo I don’t agree that a supply chain backup is necessarily the president’s responsibility.
@Henggao Cai it isn't. It's corporate greed, but when we advocate for more governmental intervention people's cry socialism.
@@badboysmojo Do you seriously think 1 person taking parental leave hurts the entire nation? Seriously? I don't think you understand that more than 1 person works for the Department of Transportation.
@@Matt-fl8uy Ha. When his job title is literally "United States Secretary of Transportation" I do believe he is primarily responsible.
I will wait for Pete for President. He is amazing !
Heck no he is awful. No where near president material.
Me too!
After biden BOZO the clown looks amazing
No, no, no. Buttigieg is everything wrong with Democratic politics. He would not be a good president. One year of having Bernie Sanders as President would be more beneficial to the country than 8 years of having Pete Buttigieg as President
Oh wait ask Southbend what they think about him
9:20 Things like this mean so much. I'll be so happy when we get past all these firsts but it is still worth celebrating the progress.
imagine what Pete Buttigieg would do as president in 2024
President Pete! 🌈
Love his "transportation should always connect, never divide" comment!
Yet at every turn he uses his racism to further divide people
That's like saying water is always wet....or the earth is always round..
There should be a website that people can see every vote in congress!
I agree, so those reps who voted against it can't just take credit for what they voted down.
There are dozens of such websites already
Yea I’m pretty sure all of that information is pretty available to anyone who wants to know
@@stannisvonhapsburg6883 where?
There should be voter ID. And cameras in every polling place. There should be transparency
Pete Buttigieg is the best communicator in modern politics.
Exceptionally rare in the current atmosphere of manufactured cable news hyper-partisanship bickering.
Pete's thoughtful and respectful clear-speech style instantly cools down any manic and overheated back and forth. It is remarkable to watch : Pete, like a benevolent cobra, hypnotizes its prey, which is immediately forced to slow down following his lead. He never talks over them and try as they might to goad him back into a fight, Pete masterfully steers the discourse with measured tones bolstered with simple facts, respectful engagement and charm. Uncanny.
I think he should run for office again in 2024!!!

Yeah, if we didn't spend so Damn much on military "infrastructure", we could take care of all the needs for safer transportation, I believe, probably the cost of just one fighter jets could help pave alot of roads.
They both create jobs and open new markets for American companies to sell their products, loans, and services.
@@ritemolawbks8012 Yeah, but at least you get a useful road out of it instead of a useless weapon

There’s so much to unpack right there at 9:57. It requires very special talent to make a comment that’s both homophobic and sexist at the same time but hey, it’s Tucker Swanson McNear Carlson; you can’t expect less. He’s actually the perfect example of why parents should have time to take care of their kids because when parenting is neglected, kids eventually become adults like Tucker.
there are rich brats who grow up w/o having had competent parenting -

I may have forgotten an s at the end there
This is the same man who laughed at every single misogynistic comment that trump had to hand out.. no surprise there
God, I love Pete buttegieg , may we all be so honest and so clear
Dude, I've had a bridge collapse right in front of me on I-40 exit 7 in Tennessee. It was terrifying. Most terrified I've ever been behind the wheel. All of us slammed on the brakes and prayed we didn't hit each other. No deaths, and we were ok but I couldn't drive the rest of the way home. I was shaking so bad, my husband took over once they opened a detour up
We need Pete.
I wish he would be our President.
Civil engineering sounds like a good major to be in right now?
Definitely is
We're really lucky to have this guy working for America
He is amazing .
He's a charlatan!
"He is amazing" -- in which exact way? Sure, he speaks well. But let's see a few real achievements of his Dept of Transportation before we go even close to calling him amazing.
Amazing? Really
-Said no one ever
No he's not, like many other politicians he has sold his soul to corporate donors. As a country we need to reject politicians like Pete that accept corporate donations, as these politicians always end up representing their corporate donors over their constituents. Don't get me wrong, I still prefer a Democrat like him over any Republican, but we really need to have a higher standard for our Democratic politicians than the extremely low bar of just being better than a Republican. We need politicians that represent the people of this country, not corporations and the rich & powerful.
I hope Pete succeeds. I like the guy. I want him to really succeed.

This is so needed. We depend on all these institutions for everything. Finally, we’re moving in a good direction. I was surprised, but not shocked, that some opponents took credit for the bill’s passage. Politics is really a trash game.

We can never stop being amazed by the GOP who fought so hard to frustrate funding for aging public infrastructure.
Seems you were quite distracted during the Trump years. Let me remind you, the republicans tried to do infrastructure while Trump was in office and the democrats said no.
@@wu7690 Come again? The republicans were in charge of the executive branch and both houses of Congress from 2017 through 2018. They had plenty of time to get something through, but all they cared about was giving tax cuts to billionaires.

He was my first pick. My grandmother who voted for Trump in 2016 voted for him in 2020. I know other former Trump supporters that did the same. My grandmother says he has a JFK quality.
He would be one of the greatest Presidents we've ever had if he decided to run. I am praying that he does in the next cycle.
What is *NOT* to like about someone who cares about our country *AND* his family. Many of our countrymen need to look at our country overall - not greediness for their own self interest. There is a lot to be done. I feel a bit more positive with Secretary Buttigieg handling this.
After the wreckage caused by Trump and the GOP, guys like Pete give me a glimmer of hope in our country.
Not at all. We need a Lee Harvey Oswald of the modern era.

26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:
27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.
28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;
Pennsylvania has been pushing off bridges for decades....just last year they finally started resurfacing 95 ..... MD and DE has upgraded their interstate system over the last years.....PA has been lazy in maintenance and upgrades....where did the money go?
The military gets $700 billion per year. The police and jails get almost as much. This "huge" infrastructure bill is tiny in comparison. What a waste.
@@DrJohnnyJ $778 billion... Which leads to about 2.3 million jobs either directly or indirectly involved with the DoD.... Is there a problem with that?
Part of what separates The United States of America from other countries is our incredible infrastructure system. Roads, bridges, sewer systems, water treatment plants, electric grid and connectivity in general. To let this go will diminish this country more than it already is.
@@TaxTheChurches. I would argue, perhaps those other countries are smaller than ours. In addition, we spend a lot of our budget on defense. I'm not saying that is good or bad but each country spends how they want to spend. Do those other countries ask us for military aid or American troops/NATO forces to assist them??? Lastly, I, definitely, do not argue with your last point concerning the Middle East. Endless wars. I still believe our infrastructure is vast and far reaching. If Republican leaders would just vote for more towards the interior then we would be in better shape.
Our infrastructure is among the worst in the developed world.
@@andyroo9381 The vastness of US infrastructure and the lack of investment in it for several generations is precisely what makes it a massive vulnerability.
I’m sorry but we need that military infrastructure. Look what’s going on in the world right now. There’s gonna come a time that you’re gonna be damn happy that we have such a strong military. Do your homework a little bit
@@truckingwithtobee I'm definitely for a VERY strong defense. I believe a strong defense is a good offense. It deters other countries from just invading us or pushing us out of numerous regions in the world. China will start forcing neighbor nations to bow to them and those nations do not come close to China in military hardware. I just feel that if we can give 100 billion dollars, to Ukraine, at the drop of a hat then we should also be able to take care of our own interior and citizens.

MY MAN....
I have all kinds of time for Secretary Pete.
Love Pete
I hope this man is POTUS at some point in the near future
Me too.
Not
Pete 2024
YUP! It's comin'.
Go Pete! If you want a laugh, turn on closed captioning and see how they type Buttigieg! They differ somewhat but the best one is Buddha Judge.
Such a kind hearted man! I would trust this man any day over a hypocrite right winger who loves to spout how religious they are! This man shows more Christian qualities than many of those people!
Please. I hate it when people defend unrepentant sinners by simultaneously bashing Christians.
@@christinebee9781 Who are you to judge and call anyone a sinner? "Judge not lest ye be judged."
@@christinebee9781 I feel oppressed hoe from reading your comment.
christian qualities like children being raped and murdered at the border?
Pete is doing a terrible job.
I love me some Pete! I want to thank his family for sharing this amazing young man.
I love how he handles hecklers.
A year ago he was mayor now he has been downgraded to Secretary of Transportation
You wouldn’t be saying that if you lived in East Palestine OH
@@tomlovejoy2141,
You’re not being a lovejoy……☹️
He is right , but i am sure the Republicans would prefer more private infrastructure as in toll ways .
Yeah....they stay fixed.
Corporate BEGGARS at its best
Yes. Tollways without improvements.
*Let’s go Pothole Pete!*
