# Trump suggests ‘dwarves, amputees and epileptics’ are ‘DEI hires’ and not qualified for Air Traffic Control positions
Trump highlighted a series of articles covering the FAA’s “diversity push,” saying they were actively recruiting workers who “suffer severe intellectual disabilities, psychiatric problems, and other mental and physical conditions.”
Trump included examples of some of the disabilities and conditions that are listed on the FAA’s website, including individuals missing extremities, paralysis, severe intellectual disability, psychiatric disability and dwarfism, among others.
He said: “'The FAA website states they include hearing, vision, missing extremities, partial paralysis, complete paralysis, epilepsy, severe intellectual disability, psychiatric disability and dwarfism all qualified for the position of a controller of air planes pouring into our country, pouring into a little spot. A little dot on the map. A runway.”
He is going to find some way to blame DEI.
