I think one reason why Trump blame DEI responsible for the crash was because he knew the co-pilot was a female pilot

Adding dis to dis thread

From Snopes:

The rumor Musk created the post was true. He posted (archived) the message on Jan. 9, 2024, in response to a user who, according to NBC News, speculated United Airlines pilots who went to historically Black colleges and universities would score lower than the average of IQ of Air Force pilots. That user later deleted their post.

The post resurfaced following a deadly midair collision between an American Airlines plane and an Army helicopter in Washington on Jan. 29, 2025. The incident claimed the lives of all 67 people aboard both aircraft. Within hours, President Donald Trump and other members of his administration baselessly blamed diversity hiring and DEI as a potential factor leading to the collision.

LOL.

This whole thing has become a fascinating social science informal case study. DJT's minority supporters include the following:

1. Colored businessmen who see him as some kind of hero because of his wealth ...and said businessmen want to be like him and don't have the capacity nor work ethic to deal with nuances like DEI and treating workers fairly...well because they are trying to maximize profit. So in essence their greed drives them to support a lying, dishonest, xenophobic racist while dishonestly leaning on LGBGT etc. Fellas like Bravos and 'Inblindsight' and apparently Snoop and Nelly fall into this wanna-be mogul category. What is sad..is that DJT is very clear about how little he respects them...but in true bobolee style they worship him. He thinks that they need to stick to sports, entertainment, fruit picking and other forms of manual labor. ie black jobs. He will never respect dem skunts.

2. 'Christians' ...there are the effin worst...they have totally abandoned the philosophy of the Good Samaritan, loving your neighbor, welcoming strangers over fake outrage over the less than 10 transgender athletes in college sports in the Yoo ESS Aye. Btw...that 'less than 10' compares to over 500K athletes in total.

3. Latinos, Filipinos and other Asians who think they are 'white adjacent' and prefer to be subjects of Trump and his ilk.


The right wing whites have merely circled their wagons after radicalization on platforms like X and Joe Rogan's podcast.


Quite a motley crew.

"Former Biden Staffer crashes military helicopter into civilian airliner" should have been the headline


The fact that they had to scrub her social media says it all. She was a well known activist.

Are you asking if there is evidence that the collision was not caused by DEI?

Nah, I'm asking of the learned pon here just what the evidence shows.
