Can you believe— he's running the biggest air system in the world, and he takes a bicycle to work.
Ah, clearly Pete should be taking a helicopter.

Well, to a rich bozo like Trump, yes. I honestly have doubts that Trump has ever ridden a bike in his life, and, if so, never because he actually needed to go somewhere.
I don’t doubt that for a microsecond. There is zero chance that the man has ever ridden a bike, skated a skate, hopped a scotch, skipped a rope, or frisbeed a frisbee.
- frizzed a bee
Why would you ride a bike if you always had car service, with an adult driver you could make fun of?
You know what he DOESN'T do?
Cause planes to get into massive crashes and fall out of the sky.
That silly former Transportation Secretary!
Lol, Trump's such a loser.
I did not know before that Pete Buttigieg was a bike commuter! And now I know because Trump thought it was something to mock him for!
Yeah, Donald. I can. Seems like the right guy for the job.
He certainly did a better job of keeping planes in one piece.
This is coming from a guy who walks downstairs to work?
Tell me some reporter in the room pointed this out.
Bet you anything he takes the elevator.
Golden escalator*
Which he takes straight to his golden shower.
He should respond something along the lines of: "This guy is a serial sex offender, with a long history of other criminal activity, including staging a coup d'etat... and he's in charge of your country! Can you believe that?? He grabbed her by the pussy"
He grabbed her by the pussy without asking**
It's the second line of that hot mic clip that's the worst "I don't even ask"
Ah yes, I forgot the self-awareness of nonconsensual sexual acts. A self professed monster.
wow I'm sure Pete won't recover from that
Sounds like a good chad, lazy pig won't understand that.
@dwazoup I thought former Prime Minister Boris Johnson was supposed to like Donald Trump (BJ likes cycling so much that he persuaded local councils in the UK to spend money on cycling infrastructure)
BJ is just faking the dumb dumb bit for populatriy. DJT is the real deal.
I still think Ian Hislop's take on him is spot on: he's a mediocrity who thinks he's a genius playing an idiot.
