Summary
Trump blamed diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) hiring policies for a fatal plane crash in Washington, D.C., despite no evidence linking them.
He accused the Biden and Obama administrations of lowering FAA safety standards, while ignoring that the crash occurred under his presidency.
His comments sparked backlash, with former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg calling them “despicable” and Sen. Chris Van Hollen condemning the politicization of the tragedy.
The way they use it seems to also be swappable with the n-word. Republican lawmakers all seem to be chomping at the bits to express that meaning as some sort of symbolism that they’ve won the race war hardly anyone else is playing.
