so Trump says DEI caused the crash. He must have been told the helicopter pilot was not a white person. [Interesting we have not yet seen their faces.]

So he immediately says it is a DEI problem without the public knowing what he is talking about.

The report asks him "how do you know it is a DEI issue?" Trump then says "I have common sense"

So... he is told the pilot isn't white and.... 10 minutes later he announces the pilot cant be qualified.

Man, it would be great if this poor bastard graduated at the top of his/her class. And if they did not, that is OK too. They passed the same rigorous training the white guys did.

My hunch is that this was a tragic HUMAN error accident.

Thanks Maynard. I like the part where trump once again lies by claiming that he has "common sense". Yeah...ok.

And I'm SURE that if trump knew that the pilot was Brown, female, transgender, or a dwarf, he'd have made that clear.

Way back when I thought I had enough money to fly and got my pilots license, I learned that something like 80% of both fatal and non-fatal accidents were human error. That particular airspace is the busiest and most restricted in the entire world. It's a good thing that trump abolished the FAA safety team. Make Flying Safe Again.
