While the families of those killed in a tragic plane crash last night grapple with the heartbreaking loss of loved ones, Democrats chose a grotesque approach to the tragedy: Blame Trump.
On Wednesday night, American Airlines flight AA5342, carrying approximately 60 passengers, collided with a military Black Hawk helicopter over Washington, D.C., resulting in a crash into the Potomac River near Washington, D.C.
But rather than grieve or put the needs of suffering people first, leftists instead used it as an opportunity to make a partisan, political, ghoulish political attack on President Donald Trump.
Shortly after the crash, while little was known, Phil Williams from NC5 in Nashville, whose X account is filled with leftist talking points, immediately jumped in and took a swipe at Trump saying, “President Trump offered unprecedented buyouts to ALL federal employees at a time when studies show the FAA does NOT have enough air traffic controllers to keep us safe. More people will likely die.”
No matter that the proposed buyouts have not even taken effect. Why let facts get in the way of partisan behavior?
Phil removed his post and put up an explanation which, of course, put the blame on the reader for ‘misunderstanding’ his vile take.
It is clear that the Democrat talking points went out, as many of the vile posts included the same screenshot, including author Bakari Sellers.
Rep. Norma Torres (D-CA) qualified her “prayers” by blaming President Trump.
Politico’s David Freedlander marched in lockstep.
It only took minutes for CNN anchor Abby Phillip to try to blame the Trump administration.
While bodies were still trapped in their seats, submerged under water, Phillip said, “Mary, I have one more question for you. Look, it’s January 29th, we are just nine days out from a presidential transition and administrative transition the FAA Administrator resigned at the end of the Biden administration. So there is no permanent, confirmed FAA Administrator right now.”
“This is going to be a time where there is a lot of public communication and a lot of investigation of what happened here. What do you anticipate this transition period is going to mean for what happens today and tomorrow and the coming days as we find out what happened here.”
Minutes after the DCA plane crash, CNN anchor Abby Phillip is already trying to blame the Trump admin for the crash.

Today, pilots, flight attendants, businesspeople, and military personnel will board planes and helicopters to do their jobs and take care of their families.
For the foreseeable future, those who love and depend on them will worry each day when they say their goodbyes.
This morning, other families woke up to face the tragic reality of the loss they are facing.
But to the ghouls on the left, nothing matters more than swiping at a political opponent, especially if it is Donald Trump.
