Yeah, he's just completely overwhelmed. Did you ever consider that he's totally incompetent for this job?

  This tends not to be a "the president will solve it" but rather "the president appoints the people who are heading agencies to solve the problems." https://ourpublicservice.org/political-appointee-tracker/ https://ourpublicservice.org/political-appointee-tracker/ In particular: > President Biden put forward more nominees in his first year than President Donald Trump and about as many as President George W. Bush and Barack Obama. But it took on average 103 days for the Senate to confirm a Biden nominee, compared with 100 days for Trump, 80 for Obama and just 48 for Bush. That various departments and agencies are taking longer to get things done shouldn't be surprising when the appointments are either being slow walked or held up.

  The United States Secretary of Transportation is not responsible for stopping the looting of trains at the Union Pacific Terminal in Los Angeles. This is a local crime issue. Buttigeig is simply not relevant in this discussion.

    Interstate commerce is being interfered with. The Secretary has a large organization at his disposal. He has subordinates. He has a phone and a pen. There's lots of things he could do without spending a lot of personal time. But, he has priorities, like talk shows, where he avoids discussing topics like these.
