Quid finally gets his boat parade
Except that they just sit there at sea .
According to CBS ,"A growing number of shipments are stuck at sea because of supply chain issues, leading to growing concern that holiday shipments may not arrive in time. Container ships are crowding ports from New York to Los Angeles, where 250,000 containers are floating off the coast waiting to be unloaded,"

He also has his trucker and rail parades stuck on hold . According to the Washington Compost , "Ships wait off the California coast, unable to unload their cargo. Truckers are overworked and overwhelmed, often confronting logjams. Rail yards have also been clogged, with trains at one point backed up 25 miles outside a key Chicago facility,"

Supply chain transportation issues should be under the perusal of the the 58,000 employed and $87 billion budgeted Dept of Transportation under the leadership of Mayor Pete . So where is he ?
Mayor Pete has been in the news as I posted . He made a big show of adopting twins staging photo ops in a birthing bed . He calls parenting twins one of the most demanding jobs he has ever done .
“I used to think of 5 a.m. as early. Now, I think of it as naptime if I’m lucky,”

Good thing he has his priorities in order . Parenting twins a tough job . Overseeing a transportation crisis ? He's a no show.
When asked what he is doing about it on the compliant media's Morning Joe show he said "a task force," was created and they have "held roundtables." Sorta the Kam the Sham border plan .
Quid had his number during the Dem primaries . In one of his campaign ads he mocked Mayor Pete's experience ..
"Both Vice President Biden and former 'Mayor Pete' have helped shape our economy. Joe Biden helped save the auto industry, ..,,,." " Buttigieg revitalized the sidewalks of downtown South Bend by laying out decorative brick."

But Quid had to reward Mayor Pete for dropping our of the race early(and for checking off a box as being the 1st gay Cabinet member confirmed ) ;and Mayor Pete did have experience because while serving in the National Guard ,he was part of the car pool in Afghanistan. So of course that made him qualified to run one of the most important government agencies .
