  1. Yet not a single crash until Trump sacked them all. In fact an impeccable safety record for the past FIFTEEN years. Then Trump guts the staff and you have a crash mere weeks later. So weird huh?

  2. And one president.

  3. The blinkers of convenience are strong in these buffoons. They will never concede that, despite it being the truth.

  4.  @nailingit73  Understaffed? That makes it worse. All those people removed when the industry was already understaffed? That's incredibly dangerous and totally incompetent.

  5. Trump fired a huge number of them recently. Do the math and stop excusing his dangerous incompetence. :/

  6. The airport's own statement disagrees with your summary.

  7. 1) Trump fires 400 employees of the safety board and guts the Aviation Safety Board. 3000 air traffic controllers and senior leadership driven out. 2) America experiences its first major air crash in 15 years about 2 weeks later. (Likely cause, under-staffing of air traffic controllers) It's almost like there is a connection.... duh. I would not be going anywhere near a plane right now if I was in America.

  8. Don't be ridiculous. You have to be brain-dead moron to do that dangerous (as well as firing all the related staff)

  12.  @Dwsee58  Jan 20 - Trump fires the head of the Federal Aviation Administration, the department in charge of flight safety Jan 21 - Trump freezes hiring for Air Traffic Controllers Jan 22 - Trump disbands the Aviation Safety Advisory Committee Jan 28 - Trump sends out a buyout/retirement demand to existing employees, removing experienced safety staff Jan 29 - First American mid-air collision in over FIFTEEN years If you need any further information just ask. I realise you probably only watch Fox and thus have an extremely biased and skewed view of the world.

  13. Blame was not an issue until Trump started blaming everyone based on pure speculation and irresponsible conspiracy theories.
