What do we know about the truth of this post? For example, having been fired, I assume the TSA head was also replaced? And what of the 3,000 air traffic controllers? Were they replaced, or considered surplus to requirements?

Was the air traffic controller (looking after the flights that crashed) working extra hours to fill in for people sacked, were they new, or was all this completely irrelevant to the accident?

I don't think there is much truth to it. He has fired some heads and made some changes - but not 3,000. https://tribune.com.pk/story/252555...er-deadly-midair-collision-over-potomac-river

I've just listened to Trump's press conference about the disaster. He blames the presidencies of Obama and Biden for allowing people like Dwarves get jobs as air-traffic controllers.

Wow.
I was listening to a couple of minutes of his conference on the way home from work. I actually thought, well give him some credit he is being reasonable. I stopped for petrol, filled up, paid and drove away. By then he was launching fully into inclusion and special needs, crowned with comments about dwarfs. True to form, he just cannot help himself. What a dislikeable and nasty person he is. Oh America.

Sadly there is no one who can have a quiet word with him. He is completely off the rails once he starts talking, there seems no feedback loop when he spouts this nonsense and no shame or embarrassment on his part when he trips over his words and starts rambling. No one is in control :eek:

He reminds me of Mr Blobby, the 1990s architect of much TV chaos. When he spoke, he always started slowly and vaguely understandable, then slowly just started ranting. It’s exactly what Trump does.

I too was in the car, mouth ajar. For those who didn't listen, he claimed that during his last presidency he put in measures to make sure that the brightest people got the jobs, and when Biden took over, he removed those conditions, and made it so non whites etc could get the jobs.

It's not just how racist and ableist he is, but what bullshit it all is. The point of making sure that minorities are also considered for jobs, is so that you can get the brightest people. If you have a policy of whites only, you're going to miss out on a lot of the brightest minds. He may also have confused the Democrats policy of making more university places available for under-privileged children, with policies on who gets important jobs in the aviation industry.

Only 4 years to go.

The similarities are obvious, although Mr Bobby would make a better POTUS

I think he he banned from this thread so is polluting the other one with his nonsense and ignoring anyone who calls out his bullshit.
Obviously @Marshy @Crawley Dingo and @spence have all been complete Trump fanboys for a long while, ignoring any facts or logic, but the entertainment for me is seeing the Johnson/Farage/Badenoch/Truss supporters try and tread that increasingly narrowing line between 'I'm allowed to have opinions', 'I'm not being listened to' and full on complete and utter swivel eyed Trump supporting loon :laugh:

He’s mental, has to be. How can there be no shame or embarrassment? As I posted earlier, he’s like an embarrassing, senile and old relative. The only difference is there’s no one to say “Come on grandad, it’s time to go home.”

Thanks to our Democrat Correspondent in the US for that valued input.

The gender order one? I haven't looked at that really, have I missed out much? Or is he just spouting bollocks and posting links to random unrelated videos then running away?

What's the betting that Trump's appointed Attorney General comes up with a legal view that the two term limit, only applies to consecutive terms, and given Trump's weren't, so he is eligible to serve again.
OR - Because he was (ahem) "robbed" of the election in 2020, he "deserves" to have another term.
OR - There will be a mysteriously convenient manufactured "national emergency" and the 2028 election will be postponed
