He put his sights on the DEI standards at the Federal Aviation Administration and highlighted the Biden -Administration’s efforts to lower the aviation standards, although he acknowledged that the reason for Wednesday evening’s crash has not yet been determined.
“We must only have the highest standards for those who work in our aviation system,” Trump said. “Only the highest fitness – you must be the highest intellect – and psychologically superior people were allowed to qualify for air traffic controllers.
“We have to have our smartest people. It doesn’t matter how they look, how they speak, who they are. What matters is intellect, talent. The word ‘talent’. They have to be talented geniuses , ”He continued. They can’t do it. ”
