They know exactly what DEI is but the reality of what it actually is does not fit their narrative of white people= good, brown people=bad. The entirety of his cabinet are not qualified, yet they are still nominated and confirmed. As per trump standards, they are all DEI hires.
He’s such an asshole. I hate everything about this poor excuse of a human. I see he has a new makeup person. White eyebrows, white eyeliner, white lips. Him and Vance are like a “very sad” ying and yang.
He mentioned Obama and Biden a few times. Really? If Obama or Biden were in office, he’d say this wouldn’t have happened if he were in office. Always blaming. What a total disgrace.
You can say one thing about Trump - he is easy to predict. And by being so I can’t help but wondering if voters didn’t know this when they voted for him in November. They knew this presidency is going to be both authoritarian and borderline fascist and still people voted for him in record numbers
Blaming Obama, democrats , Buttigieg and DEI. He’s all of a sudden an expert on aviation and assigning blame before the investigation has even started. And he won’t fucking shut up. Fucking moron.
If it is so bad, shouldn’t he shut down all flights right now? If he is saying it’s not safe because of Obama, Biden, DEI, it should be “shut the hell down until we get to the bottom of it.” Right?
This "press conference" is breathtaking. At some point he'll say water is wet and these schlubs will lap it up. This guy is a complete and utter moron.
I’m listening to dumb ass Trump talking about the accident and family members who died instead of something about that he rather blame Pete and DEI people and Biden .He is a heartless person I wish it was him in his plain cause he’s not one time offered his condolences or sympathy poor example !!
-cis straight white airplane pilot
-cis straight white helicopter pilot
-cis straight white air traffic controller
-cis straight white FAA admin fired by cis straight white president and cis straight white nazi billionaire
The white nazi billionaire is not straight per-se, jmo.
Regular straight men do not want to father that many children by that many women, in (attested! some cases) simultaneous pregnancies. It gives off whitewashed polygyny fundamentalist-LDS-sect vibes or something.
There are no DEI “hiring practices”. That’s not what it is!!!! Why is NO ONE explaining this to him?!?!? Good lord, this man is so fucken stupid!!!! How is he POTUS?!?!?
It’s not a matter of explaining. He’s a liar. What he knows or doesn’t know doesn’t actually matter, because he’s always going to be a Nazi. He is always gonna lie. So convincing him or teaching him is a completely different thing that doesn’t really even matter. He is evil. He will do evil.
This is it. The biggest failure of the American education system.
Also, you can't explain things to him. He's like a 2 year-old, before you've finished the first sentence he's already wandered away somewhere to stick a Lego up his nose.
No, they're definitely here. The Jill Stein & Bernie Sanders folk, the Uncommitted folk who couldn't vote for "holocaust harris" & "genocide joe". The justice dems, the democratic socialists of america, etc.
At this point, I shouldn't be surprised about the words that come out of his mouth, but his words today were especially vile. What a pile of spray tanned shit.
Sadly we will never know how this happened. It will come out as trump blaming DEI, period. There will be no true investigation. Somebody need to check these stories he was quoting.
The implication that the DEI policy Trump stated is new, or that it stems from Buttigieg/Biden, is a lie. It has been on FAA's website since February 2013. It was present during the entirety of the Trump administration, and it remains today.
I totally agree. My father was an air traffic controller and the insulting and degrading things he saying about them is making me more angry than I can even explain. They should all quit.
Not quit because that's what he wants. A national strike because of these insults would be more effective! 24 hrs without a single plane in the air because of his stupidity!
The DC plane crash was caused by the 47 administration to give an excuse to review and make changes to the FAA, investigation bodies and military aviation wings... all so he can profit from people's deaths.
Sensing the potential reputational danger to him right out of the gate, an immediate launch into Blame Shifting 101. Empathy for a massive human tragedy? Nowhere to be found.
I refuse to watch him. I shut the TV off as soon as I saw his face, he's an absolute disgrace. I can only imagine what other countries are saying about us now… he's completely off the wall and deranged. 
You know what. I don’t want to hear a single thing that dumb shit has to say. Giving him attention feeds his narcissism, even if it’s fuck you attention.
I did not listen, but someone posted a remark in quotation marks that included the r-word. Did Trump actually use the r-word to refer to disabled people?
Just guessing there are going to be new EO's coming down the chute to replace the heads of FAA, NTSB, & any other govt. entity involved with aviation pretty soon. Some likely names- Laura Ingalls (looks like a flight attendant), Brett Baier (looks like a pilot), Watters (looks like a ticket agent).
Even worse than a nazi speech if there could be such a thing. Musings of a psychotic personality, no empathy and no redeeming qualities. What have you unleashed republicans?
The entire briefing is a Sh*t show! Trump is disgusting and the cabinet dudes slamming DEI and merit hiring is a JOKE considering how awful his hires have been.
Yes, maligning Pete Buttigieg and saying he uses "bullshit." As he rambles on , does he apply his makeup with a sleep mask on ? Racoon look today.
Now a lesson on aviation. Appalling.
We Jews warned that Trump was a Nazi back in his first administration and people said it was hyperbole. It was never hyperbole. He is a modern-day Nazi.
All billionaires who have associated themselves with this administration have ruined their own reputations. We will take them down (financially). #DefundMAGA
Entirely predictable tho - he knows this looks bad for the first few days of his watch, so all he will do is find others to blame & try to deflect attention from his reckless actions that have caused the head of the FAA to resign, & have resulted in the loss of skilled employees at FAA, TSA, etc.
The only reason he’s on TV, is because all the networks were on the crash and not talking about him. It was TOO MUCH for this narcissist.. he’d do the same thing if a meteorite hit earth and killed millions.. blaming DEI at NASA..
As I saw one say. Repubes blamed Biden now it’s all on fuckface and his 24pack a day Sec of defen. Since it involved military aircraft. We should all be screaming it’s his fault regardless

In plane crash wake a baseless claim,
DEI's fault? A misplaced blame.
Why wait for truth when you can claim,
That progress is the one to blame?
The DC plane crash was caused by the 47 administration to give an excuse to review and make changes to the FAA, investigation bodies and military aviation wings... all so he can profit from people's deaths.
There, done.
➡️ January 21: Air Traffic Controller hiring frozen
➡️ January 22: Aviation Safety Advisory Committee disbanded
➡️ January 28: Buyout/retirement demand sent to existing employees
➡️ January 29: First American mid-air collision in 16 years
Making America Great Again
Ignore the bum. Press officials to do something.
That’s all he’s got
Now a lesson on aviation. Appalling.
And Trump's target list is broadening.
