Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg vowed to investigate the Southwest Airlines meltdown that stranded thousands over the holidays. But @mehdirhasan has a question for Buttigieg: Wouldn’t it have been better to try and keep this crisis from happening in the first place?

Insufferable bad faith attacks. At least Fox has the courtesy to ask him their garbage questions directly so that they can get the responses they deserve. In case you're wondering, Southwest is a private company, not run by the USDOT.

Nice try, @mehdirhasan. Buttigieg isn't the CEO of @southwest. Wouldn't it have been better for you to use whatever clout you think you have to try and keep this crisis from happening in the first place?

better to let it happen, and then pretend to be innocent bystanders who nevertheless tried to help as much as they can

"And in this reply section, you'll see plenty of people defending a guy for not doing his job because he looks good on TV." He's supposed to bitch slap corporations who pull shit like this, and has displayed zero willingness to do so.

I see Mehdi has jumped on the leftist, bulls*it bandwagon. Pathetic.

It’s all coordinated. They did the same thing during the 2020 Primary, it didn’t work for them then, and it won’t work for them now. They will never learn. Check out who’s on More Perfect Union’s editorial team. Nice try @fshakir and @mehdirhasan

Mehdi, I appreciate you being as moderate and gentle as humanly possible to explain this to people while keeping them receptive to the issues, but at the same time you’d have to be a fucking moron to believe that McKinsey Pete gives a fuck about consumers
