Summary
Donald Trump changed his stance on the cause of the fatal D.C. plane crash, first blaming FAA diversity policies before accusing the U.S. Army helicopter of flying too high.
His shift followed a New York Times report stating the Black Hawk helicopter may have exceeded its approved altitude.
The crash, which killed all 67 onboard, remains under investigation.
Officials emphasize D.C. airspace is highly regulated, and the Pentagon is reviewing flight data, including recovered black boxes, to determine the cause.
Seems like a good chance it is DONVICT that is to blame.
This happened on HIS fucking watch. Take responsibility for once, you asshole.
He hasn’t flip-flopped. The entire time he’s been steadfast the person responsible is Not-Him.
I’m shocked that he jumped to conclusions before he had any facts and used politically motivated attacks. Oh wait, no. I’m super shocked that he changed tune once he got the facts.
The report leaves out the revelation that the current FAA DEI policy was put in place during Trump’s 2019 term, so now he has more reason to blame something else.
He flip-flopped after it came out the DEI initiative was his (under his first term). Not democrats’.
Look in the mirror, you fat fuck.
You dropped this: 🍊
Being from an air crew background, there is a lot more to the investigation than simply saying that the aircraft was too high. If it was caused by human error, the investigation will go in excruciating details over what could have contributed to it. What was the person’s state of mind at that time. Were they tired, stressed, pressured, inexperienced, overworked, complacent, etc? Were there external factors that contributed to the error like for example the design of the altimeter makes it difficult to read under certain circumstances? Flight investigations are a non-punitive, scientific approach meant to understand exactly the chain of events that lead to the error so we know how to avoid repeating it.
Meanwhile, Trump just wants to blame someone.
If it was caused by human error, the investigation will go in excruciating details over what could have contributed to it.
The NTSB will not be allowed to release a report inconsistent with trump’s ramblings.
Trump is just fishing for a scapegoat and rage bait
Trump will never understand that the office of president is ultimately responsible
The buck never stops at Trump, if anything it accelerates in its search for a scapegoat
Nothing will be fixed because he is unable to accept responsibility
What we’ve got here is… failure to communicate. Some men you just can’t reach. So you get what we had here last week, which is the way he wants it… well, he gets it. I don’t like it any more than you men.
Damn, now I gotta listen to Civil War again.
Or watch Cool Hand Luke.
