Let me help you. Obama forced DEI into the FAA and since then, they have been running at about 75% of necessary work force. A highly technical job requiring high intelligence, excellent communication skills and quick thinking on your feet, under pressure. Every day an ATC is responsible for the safe passage of tens of thousands of lives.
When Obama intitiated DEI there were over 3,000 candidates that scored 100 o the proficiency test. They were all turned down, BECAUSE THEY WERE WHITE. The number of near misses since has gone up precipituously . In other words it was only a mattter of time before this happened.
In an interview Pete buttplug admitted he knew of this problem and did NOTHING. Peter poll smoker, Another DEI FAILURE! Trump abolished the DEI bullshit a soon as he got into office in 2016. The second Biden took office, the blithering idiot reinstituted them. On the night of the crash the Reagan tower was short handed. Shocking I know….
The Pilot was also a DEI special. Flying a very congested air space with multiple restrictions and required course corrections. She (a left wing lesbian UNC grad with radical social media posts) had less than 500 hrs in the seat. A ridiculously low number for that assignment. She ignored warnings for over a minute, was over a mile off course and flying way over the required 200’ ceiling.
In short, Trump clearly knows about this problem from his first term and he knows why. So yah, no stretch for him at all to say common sense, as I knew all this myself within 24 hrs of the collision, just from keeping up with current events.
Hope this clarifies it for you.
