Buttigieg knocks ‘East Coast elite’ over criticism of East Palestine train derailment response

Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg fired back at Republican criticism over his response to the derailment of a train carrying toxic chemicals in East Palestine, Ohio, blasting his critics as “card-carrying members of the East Coast elite.”

“It’s really rich to see some of these folks — the former president, these Fox hosts — who are literally lifelong card-carrying members of the East Coast elite, whose top economic policy priority has always been tax cuts for the wealthy, and who wouldn’t know their way around a T.J. Maxx if their life depended on it, to be presenting themselves as if they genuinely care about the forgotten middle of the country,” Buttigieg said in an interview with CNN.

Yes, he is a gay politician so he is untouchable. Plus he probably is a pedophile like the Maryland pedo Mayor.

Pardon me? “East Coast elite”? Those folks are 100% Biden and Butt supporters.

This dweeb doesn’t even know what he’s talking about. He’s from an unimportant city and anyway, he’s busy taking maternity leave so he can be “chest feeding” his purchased infant.

How many heterosexual normal men bring up a clothing store to make at point? I mean, I would understand if he said someone doesn’t know the difference between a Tractor Supply and a Home Depot.

His only qualification for the job was the administration needed to fill a sodomite quota.

I guess Kohl’s is supposed to be more upscale. But my guess is 80% of the brands in Kohl’s are also in TJ Maxx. But Pete didn’t get those fancy boots in Kohls.

Using T.J. Maxx as an example is pretty bizarre. It’s like he asked around to his elite friends and got their opinions on what would be a “low class store.”
