Trump's first press conference of his second term resembled those of his first, filled with a charged atmosphere and claims lacking evidence. During a national crisis following a tragic midair collision, Trump seized the opportunity to shift blame towards Democratic predecessors and diversity policies rather than addressing the tragedy directly. Many reporters were present, reflecting a continuing interest in his administration, yet Trump's focus was on political divisiveness rather than offering solace to the grieving nation. His comments raised concerns about the prioritization of rhetoric over compassion during a time of mourning.
We're so back," one reporter whispered to another.
Because I have common sense, okay?" Trump said, when asked how he had concluded that diversity programs... were to blame.
