Donald Trump answered questions to position himself if he would do so with the fate’s deadly turn at the Potomac River site in Washington D. C. , asking Newshounds at the White House, “Do you need me to swim?”
The president said Thursday that he would meet with some of the families of the victims of the tragedy, which occurred at Ronald Reagan airport on Wednesday night. The other 67 people interested in the destination turn are supposed to be dead, the government said previously.
When asked about his plans for the Twist of Fate site, he replied: “I have a Toarray plan, not the site. Because you tell me, what is the site? What do you need to swim?
Users of social networks had to condemn the “insensitive” comments.
“67 people die under his watch, and he makes a joke? Callous, heartless, completely lacking in empathy on full display because so many other Americans are like this and see no problem with it,” one user wrote in response to the clip.
“We are a country that is so deeply under-commissioned,” added another.
The president’s comments came here when he signed an executive order after comments he made before a press conference, in which he blamed the crash on Joe Biden’s and Diversity (DEI) systems.
The order is titled “Immediate Aviation Security Assessment. “
“We want the most competent people,” Trump said. “We don’t care what race they are. We want the most competent people, especially in those positions.”
He added: “You communicate about incredibly complex things, and if they have a wonderful brain, a wonderful force of the brain, they will be very intelligent in what they will do and bad things will happen. ” “
Trump made the comments before any investigative findings into the crash, and offered no specifics or evidence for his claims.
Pressing after his previous comments on why the idea of Dei guilty for the accident, he replied that “it could have been. ” He said he came here to his conclusion because “I don’t make unusual sense. “
Trump also said he would meet with some of the families of the people in the D. C. collision, but did not specify when. “I will meet other people who have been very hurt with circle of family members, of course, however, I will meet safe families, yes,” he said.
On Thursday afternoon, more than 40 bodies were discovered on the Potomac River, said CNN that brought resources with official operations wisdom.
Dive operations were concluded for the day due to daylight, conditions on the water and the belief that most of the victims that can be reached without removing parts of the aircraft from the water have already been recovered, a law enforcement source told the outlet.
