5/28/2023 0 Comments Trust by Pete ButtigiegHe won the Democratic presidential caucuses in Iowa in 2020 but, perhaps more importantly, knew when it was time to step aside so the party could unite around Biden. He speaks eight languages, had spells at Harvard, Oxford and McKinsey, became a mayor before he turned 30 and did military service in Afghanistan. The meteoric rise helps explain why Buttigieg is widely seen as potential presidential material in 2024, 2028 or beyond. The scope ranges from commercial space travel to the oversight of our Merchant Marine Academy, so not just planes, trains and automobiles, but everything in between. “But here you work with a daunting scope and scale. “As mayor, of course, I worked on a broad range of issues – anything that happened in the city was my concern,” he recalls in a pre-Christmas interview with the Guardian in Washington. Buttigieg has gone from running a city of 100,000 people to a department whose budget is bigger than the gross domestic product of most countries.
