Summary
After a mid-air collision between a U.S. Army Black Hawk helicopter and an American Eagle flight near Washington, D.C., Trump speculated on Truth Social, questioning why the crash wasn’t avoided.
Billionaire Bill Ackman suggested terrorism, though the FBI found no evidence of criminal activity.
Officials confirmed 67 people were onboard but have not reported fatalities. D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser urged patience as rescue efforts continue.
Trump’s comments have fueled conspiracy theories despite the lack of confirmed details.
Pasting my reply regarding Trumps comments from another thread:
The questions he’s asking aren’t wrong to ask. The real problem, IMO, is that he’s the president and can’t simply post those questions publicly. He’s an idiot, though, so this is what we get.
But seriously, he also asks why the Black Hawk pilot didn’t do ANYTHING to avoid a known flight path and I’ve asked the same thing.
As for Ackman: he’s just another idiot guessing.
