33. A demented and decaying mind searching for answers . . .

The anguish Trump is showing in trying to explain it is not his fault!

Condolences to those affected by this event, but when people start to die because Trump did something stupid in the past, a really strong response is needed to prevent it happening again.

Trump has two concepts in mind . . . people like air traffic controllers don't do anything important or useful, and they are costing him money - his money.
(Yes, Trump considers government money his money.)

This didn't need to happen.

EDIT: A proper President would be on National TV with a message of condolence and a promise to have this properly investigated and to throw resources at the situation so this wouldn't happen again.

Instead Trump gets on Truth Social and 'explains' whose fault it was.

The man is not human.
