Fact-Checking Trump’s D.C. Plane Crash News Conference and Remarks on D.E.I. There is no evidence that diversity efforts played a role in the crash, and his statements disregarded his own administration’s hiring policies.

President Trump suggested that efforts to diversify the ranks of the FAA were to blame for the plane crash on Wednesday that killed 67 people, even as he acknowledged that he had no evidence, and was instead relying on "common sense."

Here’s a fact check of his remarks.

Donald Trump is asked if he was going to go to the crash site of the Black Hawk helicopter and American Airlines plane.

His response?

"What’s the site? The water? You want me to go swimming?”

What a piece of sh*t.

Our predator-in-thief is too busy politicizing a national disaster with BS assumptions to bother visiting first responders in DC.

All I want right now is to see my firecracker of a sister just one more time. Tammy has been battling cancer of some kind for over a decade but her health has recently taken a turn. After being in the hospital all week, tonight she goes home on hospice care. Meanwhile, I fight the flu.
