Buttigieg says supply chain issues could last as long as pandemic continues

Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg on Sunday said ongoing supply chain issues could last as long as the COVID-19 pandemic continues.
Speaking to "Fox News Sunday" host Chris Wallace, Buttigieg upheld the budget reconciliation bill, a key piece of legislation for the Biden administration, as one of the most effective methods of combating inflation and supply chain issues. However, he acknowledged that these issues could persist as long as the pandemic continues to rage on.
"Look, there are so many things that are still happening in our economy — distortions, disruptions, things in our supply chain that are affecting prices that are clearly a direct consequence of the pandemic. Which is why the best thing we can do for our economy in the short term, and to deal with these transitory issues is to put the pandemic behind us," said Buttigieg.
Wallace noted that operations at the Port of Los Angeles, which the Biden administration recently announced would move to 24/7 operations to deal with supply chain issues, has experienced an increase in waiting containers and unused appointments for truckers.
"Yeah, there are definitely going to continue to be issues especially as long as the pandemic continues," Buttigieg said, pointing to a major port in China that was shut down late this summer due to the pandemic.
"You'll feel that in the fall here on the West Coast," said Buttigieg. He pointed to the "phenomenal work" that port officials and workers have done to combat shipping issues, but stressed that "we are talking about global imbalances between demand, which is off the charts right now."
"For the very short term, there are steps we can take in [and] around the ports that we think are helping. In the medium term, again at risk of repeating myself, if we really want to see all of these disruptions in we got to end the pandemic. That's what getting everybody vaccinated is all about," he added.

So until after the 2022 midterm elections. Dems have to keep pandemic emergency action in effect for universal voting by mail. It's their only way to keep the House thanks to redistricting and their only chance to gain seats in the Senate.

Pandemic doesn’t exist. Supply chain bungling does.
Dems lie, who knew.

Fine.
Now tell us when the pandemic is over. What is the metric?

Buttigieg has issues from oxygen deprivation due to chugging on too many cocks.

The pandemic isn’t the reason the supply chain is broke.
COVID doesn’t infect supply chains.
bullshite excuse.

It’s not a pandemic anymore. It’s an endemic. So basically he said our supply chain is fricked forever and millions are going to starve. Let’s go Brandon!

I knew he was headed to this. These people are pathetic. They lied that it would be over at 70% and now they are lying about whatever the new number is because the vaccines suck. The pandemic will never be over by their absurd standard but it is already over in the real world

Lol @ “pandemic “. Biggest crock of shite in human history.

State and local California laws and rules are causing the supply chain issue, NOT Covid. But he knows that, as they all do. Just more lies from this administration.

We are going to have the Teenage Mutant Death Strain of the COVID sometime in October of 2022. Have to keep the masses scared. Vaccine hysteria and draconian mask mandates are on the horizon before 11/2022.

I’m honestly somewhat surprised that even liberal areas have dropped the facade
The left tried their hardest with Muh delta and no one blinked (well except New Orleans)
