A president has only three things to say during a tragedy like this: he grieves with the families, he offers Federal support, and he promises a full investigation. Full stop. But not Trump. He had to make it about himself and his petty grievances. Trump is such a small, small man.
Yeah, the last president was so smart...as were the 81m people who voted for that dementia patient...who then gave inflation not seen in over 40 years. Truly the "highest level".
It's always about him and making Democrats the enemies, not bringing the country together. How about talking about the victims and their families? Shameful.

Mrs. Kennedy and I extend our deepest sympathy to the families and friends of all the passengers and crew who died in this crash."
As shocking and tragic as this air collision was, it's invalid and inflammatory to immediately blame diversity hiring/disability hiring for the crash. There's no evidence to support that claim now Sir. My condolences to all affected.
Why’s Trump blaming Obama lmao. Also the ATC wasn’t at fault for this. So again just blaming unnecessary people. All the MAGA fanboys said “it’s wrong to blame the President at a time like this” and then Trump goes and blames the previous presidents 😂

It's disheartening when a president prioritizes playing politics over offering compassion and solace to grieving families. In times of tragedy, leadership should be defined by empathy, unity, and a commitment to healing... not by strategic calculations or partisan rhetoric.

“Diversity” didn’t cause any problems across Obama, Trump’s 1st term and Biden’s entire presidency. Anyway why didn’t Trump fix such a glaring problem in his first 4 years if Obama caused it?
That has NOTHING to do with this accident. This accident occurred in the most congested airspace in the US and where the military routinely flies right through the approach path(s) for the airport. The CRJ was exactly where it was supposed to be. The Sikorsky training flight requested and was granted visual control by the tower and confirmed they had the jet in sight. Sadly, it appears they had misidentified another aircraft as the CRJ. So, how is that even possible? Because helicopter pilots are sitting in a glass bubble in an airspace saturated with lights from all sides and it can be difficult to pick out one light among an ocean of light at night. DEI had nothing to do with it.
@@paperplane-db8qf That wall was too important to him. NOW, with mass deportation ....there are no people to pick crops.

Americans have wanted to get the electorate ballet stopped. Because every vote should count.)
@@bordedup546 Don't talk about things without knowledge. It makes one look like a partisan fool. Boeing = recently dismantled it's DEI program in Nov 2024. Yes, that beleaguered Boeing was full on DEI. FAA = "The Federal Aviation Administration is actively recruiting workers who suffer “severe intellectual” disabilities, psychiatric problems and other mental and physical conditions under a diversity and inclusion hiring initiative spelled out on the agency’s website. “Targeted disabilities are those disabilities that the Federal government, as a matter of policy, has identified for special emphasis in recruitment and hiring,” the FAA’s website states. “They include hearing, vision, missing extremities, partial paralysis, complete paralysis, epilepsy, severe intellectual disability, psychiatric disability and dwarfism.” [...] The FAA’s website shows the agency’s guidelines on diversity hiring were last updated on March 23, 2022. [...] All eyes have been on the FAA and airline industry in recent days, after a plug door on a Boeing 737 Max 9 blew out during an Alaska Airlines flight on Jan. 5." Yes, it IS true. According to Snopes = "The cited FAA text IS REAL." --- That being said, there is no evidence to blame DEI for this accident (yet). Let's wait and see what comes from the investigation.
Landing and take off are the most dangerous stages of flight. Pilots have little time to react to a dangerous situation. The air traffic control service must control the movement, preventing one plane from approaching another. Witness from air forces.
This is why our head of state is non political and in parliament we have a government and a opposition, if one of them starts talking utter bollocks they face the other on wednesday at 11am and gets told point blank you are talking bollocks
I'm almost surprised it wasn't somehow the fault of some illegal immigrant, but instead it's DEI. Tell the orange one that maybe the chopper pilot's nightvision goggles were made in China, then he can blab about putting tariffs on them?
Am I the only one cringing to pieces while listening to a US president as he inarticulately rambles on like this and uttering strange things - about something so tragic? I'm thinking his cognitive abilities have really gone downhill this time... Oh, man. Actually, it makes a sad situation even sadder...
It may seem he is angry so he is putting safety priority in future. So many accidents recently all over the world on air flights there must be stringent rules in future.
@@Isclachauno he is lying, first off the air traffic controllers weren’t disabled, weren’t a different race they were American. They weren’t dei hires either. They were however short staffed, it’s been a long running issue. It’s been so bad some air traffic controllers are allowed to work from home to get more people on the job (which trump has stopped…likely only going to worsen the issue). Not enough people in aviation, that’s the sad truth.

A plane and a helicopter collided the helicopter was in the flight path of the plane it's pretty simple. Some DJ and clear the flight path from the military and it got in the way of the airplane😢😮😢😮
The far right orange buffoon needs to realise the same thing. He said they hired “people with severe psychiatric and intellectual disabilities” which is a bare faced lie. But what did you expect from a fraud like this.
Hire based on competency and qualifications and not on diversity box checking. I don't care who is in the job as long as they are genuinely qualified and competent. You can't do that when skin color is the first thing you look at and hire on. DEI hires are asinine.
And why are we talking about this while bodies are still being pulled out and an investigation is still days away from beginning? Just awful how silly people become when they spend too much time on social media
There is no DEI hire for pilots and ATCs. If people don’t meet their qualifications they aren’t in those positions. The same people didn’t have any problems doing their jobs over the last 4 years. This is probably Trumps fault really. Maybe he fired too many people and everyone else is overworked now.

“Diversity” didn’t cause any problems across Obama, Trump’s 1st term and Biden’s entire presidency.
Anyway why didn’t Trump fix such a glaring problem in his first 4 years if Obama caused it?
That has NOTHING to do with this accident.
This accident occurred in the most congested airspace in the US and where the military routinely flies right through the approach path(s) for the airport.
The CRJ was exactly where it was supposed to be. The Sikorsky training flight requested and was granted visual control by the tower and confirmed they had the jet in sight. Sadly, it appears they had misidentified another aircraft as the CRJ.
So, how is that even possible? Because helicopter pilots are sitting in a glass bubble in an airspace saturated with lights from all sides and it can be difficult to pick out one light among an ocean of light at night. DEI had nothing to do with it.
@@paperplane-db8qf That wall was too important to him. NOW, with mass deportation ....there are no people to pick crops. ( and I was ignorant and did not know that so many immigrants were doing this job.) Food is getting low in stores. Eggs are 7 dollars a dozen in my state of Idaho. ( A republican state that used to get 1 vote for the president and we have 2 million people here. That is how a man like Trump gets elected. Americans have wanted to get the electorate ballet stopped. Because every vote should count.)
@@bordedup546 Don't talk about things without knowledge. It makes one look like a partisan fool.
Boeing = recently dismantled it's DEI program in Nov 2024. Yes, that beleaguered Boeing was full on DEI.
FAA = "The Federal Aviation Administration is actively recruiting workers who suffer “severe intellectual” disabilities, psychiatric problems and other mental and physical conditions under a diversity and inclusion hiring initiative spelled out on the agency’s website.
“Targeted disabilities are those disabilities that the Federal government, as a matter of policy, has identified for special emphasis in recruitment and hiring,” the FAA’s website states. “They include hearing, vision, missing extremities, partial paralysis, complete paralysis, epilepsy, severe intellectual disability, psychiatric disability and dwarfism.” [...]
The FAA’s website shows the agency’s guidelines on diversity hiring were last updated on March 23, 2022. [...] All eyes have been on the FAA and airline industry in recent days, after a plug door on a Boeing 737 Max 9 blew out during an Alaska Airlines flight on Jan. 5."
Yes, it IS true.
According to Snopes = "The cited FAA text IS REAL."

That being said, there is no evidence to blame DEI for this accident (yet). Let's wait and see what comes from the investigation.
Impeach him for Gods sake!
Landing and take off are the most dangerous stages of flight. Pilots have little time to react to a dangerous situation. The air traffic control service must control the movement, preventing one plane from approaching another.
Witness from air forces.
Is anyone surprised at this sociopath by now..
Presidents should also be of high good intelligence too, this man is a disgrace.
This is why our head of state is non political and in parliament we have a government and a opposition, if one of them starts talking utter bollocks they face the other on wednesday at 11am and gets told point blank you are talking bollocks
I'm almost surprised it wasn't somehow the fault of some illegal immigrant, but instead it's DEI. Tell the orange one that maybe the chopper pilot's nightvision goggles were made in China, then he can blab about putting tariffs on them?
The helicopter flew into the plane. The video clearly shows that so why this cover up?
Am I the only one cringing to pieces while listening to a US president as he inarticulately rambles on like this and uttering strange things - about something so tragic? I'm thinking his cognitive abilities have really gone downhill this time... Oh, man. Actually, it makes a sad situation even sadder...
Yes. You are.
He should be be a fan of DEI initiatives, it's what enables him, in his clearly diminished mental capacity, to be President.
Breaking: American People Laugh At BBC For Being Fake.
60 of them aren't laughing anymore. How fake is that?
It may seem he is angry so he is putting safety priority in future. So many accidents recently all over the world on air flights there must be stringent rules in future.
He could not care less
He is a perfect president people can elect but I don’t give him my pets even for a short time
Like you your per smells. Keep em .
"He is a perfect president " Are you a bot? Maybe a zombie?
@@mori-7090 No that’s your reflection. Dummy
DEI haunts him in his sleep to the point he wakes up everyday in a wet dream
@@joelharris4399 At least he’s not dreaming about his mum like you do 🤣🤡
The insanity of having the people with these difficulties, as part of air traffic control is totally ridiculous
At least air accident investigators won’t be out of a job in the Federal government
Trump fired the head of FAAD last week. ASAC was disbanded too.
Liar
You are indeed.
@@Isclachauno he is lying, first off the air traffic controllers weren’t disabled, weren’t a different race they were American. They weren’t dei hires either.
They were however short staffed, it’s been a long running issue. It’s been so bad some air traffic controllers are allowed to work from home to get more people on the job (which trump has stopped…likely only going to worsen the issue).
Not enough people in aviation, that’s the sad truth.
@@ry1023.3 Read what you wrote. You are proving Trump correct and Trump was correct.DEI is causing deaths now.

I don’t like trump but can we please use legitimate reasons to critique him? Last I checked the crazy unfounded conspires and blaming was for the far right. Don’t do what they do tell the truth and stick to the facts or you’ll just be as bad as them
Let’s wait for the military cover-up.
u dumbo, trump is in office. You a trump supporter and now u think the military gonna cover up
Hawk Tuha 😂
A plane and a helicopter collided the helicopter was in the flight path of the plane it's pretty simple. Some DJ and clear the flight path from the military and it got in the way of the airplane😢😮😢😮
He’s a fricking genius 🤨🤨🤨

The far left BBC needs to understand that speculation is all we have at this stage - then followed by a proper investigation which is underway.
At no point have they implied otherwise.
The far right orange buffoon needs to realise the same thing. He said they hired “people with severe psychiatric and intellectual disabilities” which is a bare faced lie. But what did you expect from a fraud like this.
If that’s what you got from this without them even doing that…then maybe you realise how stupid he is.
Hire based on competency and qualifications and not on diversity box checking. I don't care who is in the job as long as they are genuinely qualified and competent. You can't do that when skin color is the first thing you look at and hire on.
DEI hires are asinine.
And why are we talking about this while bodies are still being pulled out and an investigation is still days away from beginning? Just awful how silly people become when they spend too much time on social media
most of his appointees aren't even qualified to take their positions...
@@chy4919 When we discussed this tragedy last night, my wife and I both thought it was a tower eff up & she said " I bet it was a DEI hire"
Sorry but your wife sounds stupid @@JamesSmith-qs4hx
There is no DEI hire for pilots and ATCs. If people don’t meet their qualifications they aren’t in those positions.
The same people didn’t have any problems doing their jobs over the last 4 years.
This is probably Trumps fault really. Maybe he fired too many people and everyone else is overworked now.
