With all due respect, Congressman, he’s not trying to distract from anything here.
He’s a grandiose pathological narcissist. A narcissistic sociopath. A malignant narcissist. A psychopath. A megalomaniac.
This is what he thinks of himself. And what he wants others to think of him.

Dear media:
Please do not waste time hyperventilating about this dumb comment.
It’s intended to be a distraction from all of the damaging actions he’s taking.
Focus on those.

Elon Musk cut the staff of Twitter from about 8k employees to about 2k. The crash at Reagan National—w/o adequate numbers of controllers tragically illustrates that the stupid thinking of the Trump-Musk regime to “fix things” by cutting civil servants is a dangerously wrong path for our country.

They were reportedly understaffed in the air traffic control tower at the time of the American Airlines and Black Hawk helicopter crash according to the FAA report.
A reminder that Donald Trump put a hiring freeze on air traffic control personnel, and the FAA is already chronically understaffed.

We did not have a FAA administrator to respond to the tragic crash last night in DC. Why? Because Elon Musk pushed the head appointed under Biden to resign after he fined SpaceX for failing to follow safety license requirements. www.theverge.com/news/603113/...
