Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy recently suggested that President Joe Biden and former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg accomplished more in their first 100 days than Buttigieg did throughout his four years in office. Duffy shared these thoughts in a post dating back to 2021, addressing Buttigieg’s tenure since he took office shortly after Biden.
“A hundred days into this presidency, Americans are feeling the squeeze—rising prices, plummeting retirement accounts, and unfulfilled promises. However, Americans are beginning to respond, thanks to your voices. We must keep advocating for something better,” Duffy’s post read, which included a video where he discussed these issues.
Duffy criticized Buttigieg and other Biden-era officials, stating, “Mayor Pete failed during his four years…”

In response to a Buttigieg retweet, Duffy asserted, “We achieved more in 100 days than Buttigieg and Biden did in four years. Pete is no longer constrained by his Cabinet position. He didn’t accomplish anything significant regarding transportation or infrastructure.”
Earlier this year, former President Trump criticized Buttigieg, calling him “a disaster” and pointing to his record as mayor, suggesting he drove his city into the ground.
Buttigieg, who once served as the mayor of South Bend, Indiana, announced in March that he would not pursue either the governorship or a U.S. Senate seat in Michigan for the 2026 elections.
Buttigieg emphasized that Democrats need to reach out to voters more effectively.

“I have serious concerns about Michigan’s upcoming elections for governor and U.S. Senate, but I oppose competing for either role,” he noted.
