Yep, as tasteless as @squistion’s post was last night, it doesn’t even begin to compare to Trump’s tastelessness and idiocy here. Squis is, after all, only a poster on an obscure website, like the rest of us. Trump is the President of the United States, and as usual he behaves like an unruly 4th grader. Plus he has to be the most divisive politician in our history. He never has any solution other than to blame others. 

agree with you, however he does have a solution, people need to be more qualified than their skin color

Restoring competence to the FAA is the solution.

Donald Trump blames the crash on Pete Buttigieg, DEI and having too many non whites in the FAA.

Un-FOCKING-believable

🤣🤣🤣🤣

How many of the folks here who condemned my post will do the same with what Trump said about DEI and Air Traffic Controllers?

Probably not many I would guess.

Buttplug has been an embarrassment for this country. So many disasters caused by that guy not doing shlt in his job. This country needs Trump to run the overhaul of the mess the liberals set up.

Sadly, this accident was the dotting of the i in Trump’s anti-woke,DEI rant.  The military and Transportation department were poorly run.  Wasn’t it the Obama administration that did not want a tragedy to go to waste?

Come up with some evidence that they’re not and then I will pay attention. I’ve never read nor seen nor heard any evidence whatsoever that ATC hires unqualified people because of diversity efforts, or even that ATC uses diversity as a requirement in hiring. Where is the proof? And where is the proof that accidents are caused by this? And where is the proof that this accident was caused by this?

Well, you don't have to worry about it anymore because Trump is in seek and destroy DEI mode. Hopefully he can fully wipe that crap of the face of the US.

I am not saying thats the problem that occurred, seems like helicopter pilot error major

but the ATC also told him to follow the plane in, I don't know much about flying but that seems like a stupid idea

ATC wanted to hire disabled and mentally unstable, this is factual, you can't believe thats a good idea?

Wow.   HT, for a while now your posts have shown some serious fear and anxiety...really since the election started.  Now posting this, which is really not relevant but yet somehow brings race into it.   Listen man, your mental health is important.  If you are not yet, maybe sit down and talk to a professional about your anxiety.  it isn't healthy.   I realize there are a few more on this board, on BOF SIDEZ, that could do the same, but man, it is a bit oft putting at this point.  Hope you can get the help you need.

Doesn't matter with this crowd. Unless it is a white male, they assume the person is a DEI hire and to them DEI = unqualified.

DEI means hiring someone for something other than being qualified. 

You really struggle with logic don't you?

You did it immediately last night.  I haven't brought politics into this once.  You didn't answer my question either.

I liked what the Patriots did for their head coach search. Go look at the first two interviewees they had and then the 3rd one was who was hired instantly. 😆

:banana: The NFL doesn't allow a team to just hire who they want. They have to pretend to want a less qualified candidate. 😆

Vrabel was seen as a hot commodity during this coaching cycle, appearing on the shortlist for several franchises in the market for a new head whistle. However, it was no secret that Vrabel—who won three Super Bowls with the Patriots during his playing career—was the odds-on favorite to return to New England.

 

But, as most NFL fans know by now, that doesn’t mean Patriots owner Robert Kraft and Co. could just hire Vrabel. They still had to comply with the league’s hiring guidelines, namely the “Rooney Rule,” which currently requires NFL teams to conduct in-person interviews with at least two diverse candidates for certain open positions, including the head coach.

While the ham-handed nature of the rule can be debated, and whether the rule is actually effective in getting diverse candidates hired into prominent roles is another question entirely, the reality is that every team in the NFL has to follow these rules. So even though the Patriots knew Vrabel was their guy- as did media members who cover this stuff- they still had to grant interviews to minority candidates to check the league-mandated diversity box.

Horrible tragedy in what appears to be some awfully congested airspace.  
 

Totally unrelated, but the worst I was probably ever shook on a plane was on a flight out of Wichita. I used to fly almost weekly, had all the high levels on the commercial airlines, etc. It was flooding in Wichita, if you’ve been there you know how flat it is. Roads were impassible and it was just a total mess. They put us on one of those old Delta prop planes to Dallas, the old silver ones. They started pulling bags bc we weren’t making weight. Bad sign. Then we take off and get in some of the worst storms I ever flew through and shook like a wet dog for close to an hour somewhere near Wichita Falls TX in a holding pattern trying to let the storms clear. I’d never been so glad to see DFW in my life. It was about that time I decided the prop jobs out of Wichita weren’t for me.

It is hilarious that they have a hissy fit over me pointing out Trump's unfortunate and ill timed decision re traffic controllers but yet have no problem with his statement blaming Buttigieg and DEI hires for the tragic plane crash.

One is our President who has the facts in his hand and the other is an internet troll that gets his information from trolls on x.  See the difference?

4 years of "DEI policies" and no plane crashes.

One week after firing a bunch of "DEI" people responsible for Air Safety and we have our first crash.

Trump has blood on his hands.  There are still bodies in the river and he's blaming Biden.  Disgraceful.

I first read about this this morning, and what I read is that they hired disabled people for positions that did not involve traffic control. I don’t have a problem with that, do you? I read nothing about hiring mentally unstable people.

So no what you wrote is not factual. But what you wrote was also asserted by JD Vance this morning and it appears he is lying.

People accuse you of trolling and Ive defended you. This post makes me wonder…unless you seriously believe this which in some ways is worse. 

It’s shameful of Trump to blame Biden. It’s almost as shameful for you to blame Trump (almost because you’re not the President or a public figure.) When a tragedy occurs it’s extremely unwise to lay blame unless you can find a deliberate decision that directly caused it to happen. Lacking that you lose all credibility.
