President Trump held a press conference at the White House on Thursday morning to discuss the horrific crash at Reagan International Airport last night.
A US military helicopter ran into an American Airlines flight from Wichita that was landing at Reagan International on Wednesday night.
During the presser, President Trump pointed out the disastrous record of Pete Buttigieg, the former Transportation Secretary and a DEI hire.
Trump called out Buttigieg, “He’s a disaster. He’s just got a good line of bullsh*t.”
President Trump: The FAA website shows that the agency’s guidance on diversity hiring were last updated on March 23rd of ’22. They wanted to make it even more so. And then I came in, and I assume maybe this is the reason. The FAA, which is overseen by Secretary Pete Buttigieg, a real winner. That guy’s a real winner. Do you know how badly everything’s run since he’s run this Department of Transportation? He’s a disaster.
He was a disaster as a mayor. He ran his city into the ground, and he’s a disaster now. He’s just got a good line of bullshit.
The Department of Transportation is his government agency charged with regulating civil aviation. Well, he runs it, 45,000 people, and he’s run it right into the ground with his diversity.
So I had to say that it’s terrible. Then it’s a group within the FAA, another story, determined that the workforce was too white, that they had concerted efforts to get the administration to change that and to change it immediately. This was in the Obama administration just prior to my getting there.
It’s safe to say President Trump is not a fan of Pete the bullsh*tter.
