POS President Chump blames DEI for plane crash

Trump already won the election. Nothing he says is going to hurt him at the polls. He can say WTF he wants.
Of coarse he can, but I expect better. Perhaps that is my mistake, expecting a tiny sliver of human decency while people are mourning their lost, loved ones.

To summarize, DEI might be highly at fault due to the thousand white applicants being disqualified for DEI hires. There must be a shortage of potential DEI applicants as many towers are understaffed for qualified air traffic controllers.

"For air traffic controllers, the Obama administration in 2013 instituted a new hiring system that introduced a biographical questionnaire to attract minorities, underrepresented in the controller corps. The program was criticized, such as in a Fox News report in 2015, as making it harder for more skilled applicants to get hired as controllers.

But Trump, in his first term, left the policy in place, leading to a class-action lawsuit filed in 2019 by Mountain States Legal Foundation. The case was due to go to trial this year.

Moreover, the FAA under Trump in 2019 launched a program to hire controllers using the very criteria he decried at his news conference.

“FAA Provides Aviation Careers to People with Disabilities,” the agency announced on April 11, 2019. The pilot program, the announcement said, would “identify specific opportunities for people with targeted disabilities, empower them and facilitate their entry into a more diverse and inclusive workforce.”

The link under “targeted disabilities” is now dead, but the Wayback Machine retains links from June 2017 and January 2021 that show the page was unchanged during Trump’s tenure. The list included:

  • Hearing (total deafness in both ears)
  • Vision (Blind)
  • Missing Extremities
  • Partial Paralysis
  • Complete Paralysis, Epilepsy
  • Severe intellectual disability
  • Psychiatric disability
  • Dwarfism
The June 2019 webpage for the Aviation Development Program (ADP) — also now removed but still visible on the Wayback Machine — said the program “provides an opportunity for Persons with Targeted Disabilities (PWTD) to gain aviation knowledge and experience as an air traffic control student trainee.” Participants would get up to one year of experience in an Air Route Traffic Control Center (ARTCC), with a possibility of getting a temporary appointment at the FAA Academy."
 
Trump says a lot of things. I don't listen to most of it but instead watch actions and policy.

I don't care if it "blew up" on the internet. I asked BNI to back up what he said in the title of this thread, and you answered for him. Do you think BNI as a black man needs you, a knee-jerk white liberal, to speak for him in the tradition of the dem party?
So you constantly defend things he says without..........knowing what he said. I mean........how asinine is that? Your "words mean nothing" BS has been proven to be brainless over and over again. It's just your way of saying you have no defense for the drivel trump spouts, so you've stopped listening to it. You just pretend what the the most powerful man in the world says means nothing. It's a defense mechanism. The only one better at it than you in bone.

Could you update your revolving list of deflections? I mean jfc little man.
 
That means 4 more years of joy for you as all you care about is triggering libs. You don't care about the results of his actions, short or long term. You don't even pay attention. If it's something even you would find questionable, you simply say trump didn't really mean it or isn't going to do it..........even when does.

Who are you going to blame when all this executive power trump is giving himself........as congressional pubs cower in fear........ends up in the hands of a democratic president? Or is he going to take actions to try and stop that from happening again? Already hints of a third term, which was also just triggering right?

You find nothing ridiculous or juvenile about a president who puts a priority on saying things just to upset the other party? Garners a lot of respect for the USA doesnt it?
Trump is acting like a Tiger with his tail on fire.
He was impeached 3 times, accused of Russia, Russia, Russia, the Ukraine impeachment was a cover up for the Bidens, the FBI wouldn't investigate the irregular goings on with Hunter so he sent Rudy Giuliani over there to find out wtf was going on.
Poor Rudy had his life ruined because of it.
He's been charged with 34 felonies on a book keeping irregularity where no one in Bidens DOJ would take up the case that the statute of limitations had expired on. The Mar Lago documents BS and the FBI Raid even more BS.
Stormy, you know the case where Stormy had to pay Trump $300,000 for lying. https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/do...-trump-losing-defamation-case-appea-rcna21002

So now we need to put up with Trump for 4 years and let's hope we get 8 years of JD Vance to presidentially continue Trump's policies.

LOL. Obama opened this Pandora’s box with his “phone and pen” … just like Harry Reid did with his judge buffoonery… then you guys cry when the shoe’s on the other foot.

Yep. I personally told this forum on multiple occasions they should not support what is happening because soon it may not be their guy...well some unrighteous retribution has arrived via captain ahab.

Your TDS is causing you to be more hysterical than usual.

Point to places where I "constantly defend things he said" without knowing what he said. I challenge you. Back it up, "big man".

I for one, and many other citizens, care very much and applaud his actions in trying to close the southern border to unvetted infiltrators, to rounding up criminals that are in the country illegally, and to trying to track down the 300,000+ migrant children that the DHS Inspector General said in August are unaccounted for.

Which of those do you oppose, 'Big Man."

Trumps not here to make you like him. He doesn't care whether you like him or not. He's here to kick ass, take names, and put America first. Which is what he's doing.

People liked Biden because they thought he was a 'nice guy'. Turns out nice guys don't make good POTUS.

Bob, please don't stop. I'm going to enjoy watching you fly off the handle for the next 4 years every time DJT says something outlandish.
My suggestion....pay more attention to what he does vs what he says. It will cause you much less stress.
 
Why shouldn't DEI hiring practices be part of the discussion? Because it's uncomfortable and you don't like the fact that there could be some connection between lowering standards, hiring quotas and job performance/competency?
Idk, maybe because it's less than 24 hours after the crash and he has ZERO proof.......of anything. Nothing.

Maybe because after starting the speech with a moment of silence and sending out condolences and saying appropriate comments for the moment..........he turns the speech into an attack and blame game for 30 minutes. Is that the time and place for that?

Even if one thinks it's appropriate to blame DEI with no evidence, DO IT THE NEXT DAY IN A DIFFERENT SPEECH. FFS.

Obviously yes, because the same ATC's handles the airspace for helicopters. You asking that shows you really don't understand this subject.
You understand that an aircraft goes to visual recognition of other aircraft in these situations. The controller has each aircraft acknowledge sight of the other and the controller is no longer giving instructions.

The stuff trump is doing and will do with expanding executive power is gonna make Obama look like a Boy Scout.

Do you guys even pay attention to anything he's doing besides DEI and the border? C'mon
 
You have no way of knowing this… but keep crying…
They haven't even retrieved all the bodies!!!!! Didn't have the black box either lol. Yet trump knows there was a DEI problem that might have caused the crash. Do you people even stop and think about what you're saying jfc? Just bizarro brain dead lemmings. You defend defend the insane without a second thought.

You do not know for a fact that he has ZERO proof.

Just like none of you lemmings knew if he was wrong when he claimed Covid leaked from a lab.

Could it be possible the helicopter crashed into the plane intentionally?

That’s part of my argument. If that is the case then that blows that DEI bs out the window. That’s why you don’t spew political bs before the facts come in after a tragedy.

Far more likely is a staffing issue in the control tower from what I have heard .

But why would there be a staffing problem? Any ideas?

Maybe Mayor Pete, the illustrious recent DOT secretary, would know since he had four years to do something about it.

Doubt it. They had collision avoidance kick in the day before. Somebody with the helis is in deep trouble is my take. Helicopter was also too high allegedly. Just should never happen. Plane can't really do much evasive at that altitude.

It was interesting that two people at the health club mentioned that to me today. It just looked like the copter ran into the plane to them. Seemed like they could have seen the plane to avoid the crash. Who knows for sure?
