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?

Seriously dude, that’s a bit over the top.
"There's nothing I could have done to prevent my house from flooding" says man who plugged all the drains of his sinks and baths and left the faucets to run.
"Wouldn’t it have been better to try and keep this crisis from happening in the first place?" I would have simply realized that a non-hub airline model with an antiquated communication system would fail during a pandemic, so I would have used heavy-handed regulation.
Mayo Pete had gained weight. He's too fat to be president now. Used to like him but now YUCK
Amazingly, an unqualified small town mayor who was appointed only because he checks a "diversity" box is a rolling disaster as Secretary of Transportation.
Buttigieg is too busy at home breastfeeding.
Butthead will be investigating what happened until either you forget about what happened or it happens again
