You are trying to bend a statistic or fact to fit your narrative rather than adjust your narrative to fit the full slate of available data.
There's nothing for me to understand because this is a conversation about EVs catching fire at an unprecedented rate since Pete began his DEI gig.
Yep, And there are also an unprecedented number of EVs on the road.
Statistically speaking, 0 people died as a result of an electric automobile catching fire during a 15 minute interview. The interview
could have gone on for a week or more straight and it's still quite
likely 0 people whould have died from an EV fire.

I usually don't speak statistically, but I speak American. And American speaking, the Biden/Harris administration has the worst transportation related statistics in history, but Pete still has time to joke around on TV.
So I'm not sure where you are picking your numbers from. It sounds to me lik
We must appreciate the word "discretionary" because I've been all over
the east coast this summer and I didn't run into any construction projects.

I've noticed that the right tends to just say whatever fits their narrative, facts be damned. Their base doesn't give a damn about
facts, facts come from data. Data is science. Science is the enemy
of Jesus so we don't listen to that crap! ;)
Considering how much totally easily debunkable BS Trump spouts, it's
no surprise his base follows suit.

Kellyanne explained it all so very well. Alternate facts is reality.

That's simply not true. Highway fatalities have been slightly higher since covid ended and people started traveling again, but it's nowhere near the raw numbers from the 70s and 80s, and WAY less in the per
capita and per billion miles traveled figures.
Are you picking out other numbers? Passenger train deaths are up a bit, but accidents are down overall.
That must be totally unique. I've never heard of any other person who never experiences any roadwork when being "all over" somewhere an entire summer.
According to this official traffic information site:
https://511ny.org/
... there are around one thousand construction sites on the roads in
NY state alone and several more thousands "all over the East Coast". If you didn't see a single one, you should take off your orange blinders.

I think Stephen Colbert coined the word "Truthiness" back around 2005.
Roadwork involves regular maintenance. Paving is not something that we
pat our Transportation Secretary on the back for; if anything, we thank our taxpayers for it.

You're doing the same thing that MAYBE I did; you're cherry-picking
your transportation statistics. There were no commerical air
fatalities? That's great, and I'm glad. But what's with the
unprecedented private plane crashes?
I'm not blaming Pete for automobile crashes. Those are out of his
control. But as for trains, sea vessels, and private planes, we're
being slaughtered and Pete's not doing jack about it.

Have you not heard about all the derailments? There was one in Ohio
that just so happens to have been carrying hazardous materials. Then another one in Arizona that just so happens to have been carrying hazardous materials.

It's funny how you guys are having a discussion about "truthiness" and
how your go-to reference is Stephen Colbert. The brainwashing campaign really is a success.

Didn't you bother to check the site out properly? It has a check box for just showing "Construction". Surely you know the difference between construction work and regular maintenance, even in your IRL-alienated bubble?

I have. It's still not as common as it has been in the past.
Your claim was that these numbers are "the worst in history"
He literally coined the word, on "The Colbert Report". A show where he played a satirical version of a fox news pundit.
Your statements fit the "Truthiness" definition to a T. You say things that "feel" true, but when things are investigated, it shows they're not true at all.

Neither one of us has documentation that proves anything one way or the other.

The frequency of the media reports is definitely unprecedented. Whether or not the media is telling the truth is uncertain, but I'm not sure why your people would lie about it.
Do what I do.
Don't watch news on TV.
Ok, I did what you said, and now I see some construction sites, but how
do we attribute them to Pete Buttigieg? The New York State Department of Transportation is who repairs state highways, and city/town governments fix local roads.

Haven't you seen it on Fox News? The big DoT-truck filled with money, that Pete uses as he travels to every construction site in every state, handing out money to all the workers?
