Major aviation accidents like this usually have a chain of complex contributing factors but this bloke wouldn't know the back end from the front of a helicopter or aircraft.
Well yes, but people who have no idea what they are talking about, is exactly the audience Trump is aiming at. You see, when the truth is of absolutely no concern whatsoever to a person, he is "free" to conjure up any perspective he likes. So im afraid you are barking up the wrong tree here. He just doesn't care about that. And sure, the consequences of that will be disasterous, but im sure Trump feels that he can manage the narrative, it won't backfire.
Trust there are many who are seeing this just as you what do we do about it? Continue to reject this. And alert the other by word of mouth. I have taken snapshots of what is happening so I don't forget. I will tell everyone I can...It is a hard balance to stay informed because there is an avalanche every hour.

So many people knew this is what would happen when Trump got back in power.We all saw what happened after the January 2021 insurrection at the White House.That should have finished Trump,yet we got morons like this voting for him and he got back into power.And then using the Washington air tragedy and the California wild fires to blame the Democrats is unbelievable.And why isn’t Biden coming out and condemning Trump for these reprehensible accusations? I don’t understand why they’re not hammering Trump for this.
It's where the "illusion" of balance becomes a problem and has been for a while. If we treat every opinion as equally valid then you get lunatics like this getting airtime. It's sad and a bit scary.
This man is insane. And this is our future. The rest of the world has to stand up to this. And we will all suffer because of people like this. It's a weird way to go.
Didn’t we just know Trump would blame the Democrats for the tragedy! What the hells happening to a great nation like America? This idiot needs to sectioned!!!
Nothing he said is inaccurate. FAA is being sued for antiwhite discrimination as we speak. They denied 1,000 people jobs. Not because they were not qualified but because they changed hiring practice to include diversity background questions. FAA said diversity is its main mission, not safety or having best or merit.
DEI covers older white males at companies because their premiums start going up. It’s called agism. Trying to make a point with your voice raised and your head jerking around, shows that you are not emotionally calm and steady.

I’m no fan of Trump and this is bad optics, but were they gonna hire a new air traffic controller that would have prevented this in the last 10 days? The FAA has been understaffed for years and neither Democrats nor Republicans were sounding the alarm because planes weren’t falling out of the sky.

Blame lies with . . . . ( and insert here whatever minority group you want to attack at the current time). They are either blaming the Irish, the Catholics, the Jews, the Africans, the etc etc etc. Blame whatever minority group suits the current convenience. Never blames themselves.
Same approach the voters south of the border in the UK have been taking. Blamed immigrants for the results of their votes, and now they blame labour too.
'But then when he bites you, those black eyes roll over white, and then you hear that horrible high-pitched screaming, the sea turns red, and no matter how much hollering & screaming, they come in and rip you to pieces.' Yep. Sounds a lot like current politicians in America (and elsewhere).

Nope. The FAAs DEI policy that Trump is referring to is from 2013, when they FAA actively sought to recruit such people as those with some mental impairment, or sight or hearing issues, or mobility issues. I.e. the disabled, who have just as much right to work as anyone. Despite air traffic controllers (ATC) making up a fraction of FAA jobs, with of course things like the legal, HR, finance, admin etc departments existing in any large organisation; Trump without evidence, is trying to claim these hires were for ATC positions - which is of course nonsense.

Horrible to listen to, but well done for calling him out and ending any future collaboration. This situation is truly bizarre. Post-truth? Post-sanity more like. The adults have well and truly left the White House.
I'm Indian, your former colonial subject and even I feel sorry for the UK. This is who you trusted to defend you. Never thought this day would come. Trump said NATO countries should spend 5% of their GDP on national defense. With this in charge of British national sovereignty, I would suggest a much higher number than that.
What an absolute clown. Do we really want to have a so called 'special relationship' with a nation with such a nefarious administration. We need to strengthen ties with Europe and Canada, not the USA.
The thing is there are millions , upon millions, of people in America Just like him. Should have asked him about how his thoughts align with the fact that the majority of Trump's apointments are in know way qualified to do the jobs they've been appointed to do. Best and brightest?/? Hypocrisy much!
Complaining about washing ash from his car as if that wasn't evidence of people losing everything. Just an inconvenience to him personally. In the meantime, the water is needed to put out still burning fires, but his car, it's urgent ... These are Mr Dale's bedfellows. Interesting that he rejects who they truly are.
What on earth drives Mr Schlichter? Just opportunistic behaviour, or sheer incompetence, or pure hatred for everybody who does not fit into his own narrow view of the world? Anyway: his rant is simply disgusting! Kudos for Iain Dale for at least trying to limit the damage this nonsense does to my state of mind.
