      No no, ambulances! Can you imagine?

      You’re laying there on the ground after being hit by a car and an ambulance arrives, drives over you and stops on top of you. You get them loaded in and it takes off to the furthest hospital it can find. Half way there it crashes into your fire truck and kills everyone

  • Also, no one seems to be pointing out that Trump had big plans in 2017 and 2025 to improve Air Traffic Control.

    He’s doing as good of a job of this as his prior administration did with the Afghanistan withdrawal plan he swore they had for 2021.

    He just knows someone else will always take the negative publicity.

      Shifting the blame for the chaotic Afghanistan withdrawal is probably the only politically calculated thing they’ve done well - getting Americans to totally ignore they negotiated the settlement and withdrew troops prior to Biden taking office.

      But them blaming “old technology” on the ground stop is the bullshit you should take it for. They’ve done nothing to improve the technology, nothing to mitigate the risk and impact. You cant blame leaks on an old roof when you continuously kick the can down the road and tell the roofer “not this year”
