Trump criticizes FAA diversity efforts after deadly plane crash, even as he says he doesn't know the cause yet
Briefly

President Trump and Vice President JD Vance criticized diversity initiatives at the FAA in light of a recent plane crash near DC. Although Trump suggested these initiatives might have played a role, he admitted he had no direct evidence to substantiate that claim. He also attacked former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg, blaming him for poor management of the Department of Transportation. Buttigieg rebutted Trump's assertions by emphasizing the safety measures taken during his tenure and accused Trump of dishonesty during sensitive times.
As families grieve, Trump should be leading, not lying. We put safety first, drove down close calls, grew Air Traffic Control, and had zero commercial airline crash fatalities on our watch.
We do not know what led to this crash, but we have some very strong opinions and ideas.
You know how badly everything's run since he's run the Department of Transportation? He's a disaster...he's just got a good line of bullshit.
He suggested that diversity initiatives at the FAA could have contributed to the crash.
