And Trump knows best, he has all the listed conditions himself.
In some way, it also symbolizes what he is doing to the country. His plane is just a bit bigger.

Why's he gotta bad talk the president like that.
And once again, Trump controlled the conversation, and all the actual evidence is out there window for most people.
It would be awesome if there was an unspoken “don’t feed the troll” understanding among journalists, influencers, mods, forum commenters, everyone. When Trump says something outrageously stupid, just… briefly acknowledge it, and then ignore it and proceed as usual. Like he doesn’t exist.
That’s a narcissist’s worst fear.
Sure, he'd bounce around in the conservative echo chamber, but at least he wouldn’t pull more people in.

He should work a shift as an air traffic controller so that people can understand he's just a regular guy like they are.
People are already suffering and dying because of him, let's not make it any easier for him to take lives.

Magically, for 16 years none of these issues resulted in this outcome
So he actually blames himself. Fair enough
Next time AF1 goes for a jaunt to pedo-island, the air traffic controllers that trump is insulting have an opportunity to become really American heroes...

And yet one of them is in the White House running things
Has anybody checked to see if the spray tan he uses is known to cause brain damage?
He’s projecting again
Well he's not wrong.
He's technically a public servant (worker) and his actions likely caused problems with ATC/FAA.
Amazes me that after the initial COVID response and just his entire public life, that anyone seems surprised that Trump is not the kind of person that should be making speeches about somber and serious subjects.
Let alone be in charge of the response to them, but that ship has sailed.
...or understaffed air traffic control where controllers have to do 2 jobs at once. Then you have a helicopter pilot who was not following ATC instructions.
it could've been
Holy shit. Yeah, and it could also have been you. We don't know right? Just use common sense right?
This is 10000% on Trump and Musk. I give them 30 days of they stay in the country
The dude with the intellectual disabilities is in the White House gutting the FAA
For those keeping score, in his journey to fuhrer, you can mark this spot on your "classification of people Trump will put in camps" bingo card.
Nepotism(hiring unqualified friends and family) is far more rampant and way more destructive than DEI policies ever could be. DEI policies may help unqualified people gain low level positions, but with nepotism it's usually high level positions.
