I wonder if any of the pilots or air traffic controllers were minorities

I was listening to a TV call-in show that morning and there were a few callers who were blaming it on DEI also. These people have a problem with any one of color being in a position of supervision even though they do not even know anything about the people in position

It's ok to be unqualified and incompetent if you are white. But the same is definitely not true for minorities

"Leadership 101: Do not speculate without facts."
That is all there is to it.

Yet here we are, subjected to the reckless ramblings of a president who seems utterly incapable of grasping this basic principle.
Instead of offering clarity or accountability, we’re met with baseless speculation and inflammatory rhetoric that does nothing but sow confusion.
And if that weren’t enough, the constant, lazy fallback of blaming the previous administration—without presenting a shred of factual evidence—is as pathetic as it is transparent.

This isn’t leadership; it’s cowardice masquerading as authority.
A true leader takes responsibility, owns their decisions, and faces challenges head-on.
The exact opposite is what we are seeing: a flagrant display of incompetence and a total disregard for responsibility."

Four more years of this moron...evil

Robert Greene in The 48 Laws of Power said a great leader never takes blame and instead he / she should always give the public someone else to blame

Yes it is reported that the Trump administration has fired over 100 supervisors at the Federal Aviation Administration since they took office ten days ago and have placed a hiring freeze on the FAA although they know that the FAA need about 1000 more flight traffic controllers to operate safely. So, the Trump Administration might be claiming DEI to deflect from their own screw-up.

He says he has 'common sense' to blame DEI without any evidence. Sigh.

I don’t know any plane crashes that didn’t involve that category of people as pilots, air traffic controllers, mechanics etc

I think you forgot to make an adjustment to the last part of that statement, cuz apparently you can fool a certain segment of the people all the time.

I didn't know that all those firings took place at the FAA but it makes sense that Trump getting ahead of his chaos and incompetence by blaming it on a scapegoat that he know his supporters will eat up.

And the media and everyone else eats it up.

Look at this thread. Instead of the focus being on his EO which fired all the competent people at the FAA as well as gutting the aviation safely advisory committee, the conversation is about him blaming "DEI".

If Biden had signed an EO like this and an accident happened shortly afterwards the Republicans would have been frothing at the mouth and drafting articles of impeachment.

But apparently this echo chamber can't handle the multiple, different perspective and diverse source of that answer.

Some people need acerbity so that they know how you feel about them. cool

Central Park 5, Black Jobs, Byron D is a good ONE, DEI crashed the plane (sans any sort of investigation) , C for colored on apartment applications, eating cats and dogs...and these f..kkers grinning.. "we loves you Massa Trump."

Shameless pack a skunts.
