<p>Buttigieg had put up his nomination as a Democratic presidential candidate during the US elections last year, however, <strong>Joe Biden</strong> had emerged triumphant. President Biden eventually picked Buttigieg as the transport secretary in his cabinet.</p>

<p>Biden had described Buttigieg as a "patriot" and a "problem-solver" and had said he expected the&nbsp;Indiana leader to lead with "focus, decency, and a bold vision".</p>

<p>Buttigieg had become widely popular during the US Democratic primaries but pulled out after scoring poorly in South Carolina finishing fourth with just eight per cent votes as he struggled to reportedly garner support from black voters.</p>
