That doesn’t even adjust for fatalities/passengers flown. So what did he watch that told him to think technology in planes is making them less safe?

Your “facts” and “logic” play no role is appealing to his base.

I fucking love this President. My 2 faves during my lifetime are Trump and Nixon. They share a lot of similarities and were besieged by the same groups of assholes. No I’m not trolling. Y’all, the lef

 Or per miles flown.  I'll bet that 1950 saw 1/100th the number of passengers flown and 1/500th the number of miles flown.  

The only logical  comparison is number of deaths per passenger mile flown.

A Trump appointee will determine whether or not to ground the plane.  Also, prior to being appointed, he was a lobbyist for the aircraft industry.  Surprise.

Quote

National security analyst Juliette Kayyem noted that the Federal Aviation Administration chief responsible for grounding commercial airplanes not only used to fly them but served as their lobbyist at one time. 

The biography of Daniel Elwell on the FAA’s website details he was a pilot for American Airlines for 16 years. American is one of several airlines who have the Boeing 737 MAX 8 flying passengers around the country. While many other countries have grounded the plane after two crashes that took place immediately after takeoff, Elwell proclaimed the U.S. planes to be safe.

 

Quote

“Elwell was Vice President of the Aerospace Industries Association (AIA) from 2008-2013. In this role, Elwell represented civil aerospace manufacturers and led policy development and advocacy,” quoted Kayyem.

So, the White House has taken an official position.  Any day now they are going to have to defend how someone that doesn't "know" the president ends up in casual photos with him:

Quote

After four days of silence, the White House has finally addressed questions about Cindy Yang, the massage parlor owner who sold Chinese business executives access to President Donald Trump and his family at Mar-a-Lago. 

“The President doesn’t know this woman,” Judd Deere, a White House spokesman, told Mother Jones on Tuesday.

The War on Women continues, unabated.

Or, you could look at it this way:

At the start of Obama’s term, as a result of the financial collapse before he was inaugurated, female unemployment went all the way to 9%. By the end of his eight years, it was 4.5% or so. Trump took office at 4.5%...and it’s dropped a bit over .5% in two years.

Trump’s the substitute RB who comes in at the end of the 80 yard drive, gets the handoff on 1st and goal, and scores on a battered and tired defense. And crows about how he’s the key to our offense.

Call me when he has a 100 yd game or two.

That's pretty great, but you left off the part where he then cries about the fake ESPN media not ever reporting about how he is the greatest RB and put on the greatest performance the franchise had ever seen.  He then incessantly tweets about Coach and his 12 angry assistants who won't give him the game ball and instead want to investigate his cocaine habit and wife beating allegations.  WITCH HUNT!

Trump’s also the aging running back with the highest cap number on the team, given our massive deficit increase in a non-recession year. The team is about to trade Khalil Mack (Medicare) and Amari Cooper (Education).

I give trump the benefit of the doubt that he doesn’t really know her. His main gig over the last decade has been selling pics with him. Donate/pay enough money and he will pose with you.  

It’s telling that she didn’t get a real staged picture like she has with other pols. She didn’t pay enough to get trump to really pose with her based on this awkward pic.  Instead her money got her near him, and she probably asked repeatedly for him for a pic.

How Jared got into Harvard:



The college admissions bribery investigation that led to charges on Tuesday against 50 people, including CEOs and Hollywood celebrities, has placed a new focus on how President Donald Trump's son-in-law got into Harvard. 

Jared Kushner, who serves as a top aide to Trump, and his acceptance to the Ivy League school was investigated as part of the 2006 book "The Price of Admission" written by ProPublica editor Daniel Golden. 

The book examined how the nation's wealthy buy their children into prestigious schools with tax write-offs and other donations. One such donation was made by Kushner's father, real estate developer Charles Kushner. 

Golden wrote a 2016 story after Trump won the presidency, about his book and specifically a legal $2.5 million donation that Charles Kushner pledged to Harvard in 1998. It wasn't long after, according to Golden, that his son was accepted to the prestigious school.

Gordon noted that at the time, Harvard only accepted one out of every nine applicants and those at Jared Kushner's high school didn't believe his grades or test scores were good enough to attend the school. 

In response to the allegations, Risa Heller, a spokeswoman for Kushner Companies, told ProPublica that it was "false" that the donation was linked to Jared Kushner's acceptance. She said that his parents "are enormously generous and have donated over 100 million dollars to universities, hospitals and other charitable causes."

He continued: "Jared Kushner was an excellent student in high school and graduated from Harvard with honors."

While others who made large donations to Harvard had been former students, Gordon noted Charles Kushner had not attended the school. Gordon said he examined why Kushner would give millions to the school and found both of his sons enrolled there.

Gordon reported that unlike other large gifts to the school, Harvard hadn't sent out press releases announcing the donations. He said he found the donations in Kushner's finances after subpoenas from federal authorities made them public. 

Charles Kushner was convicted in 2005 of tax evasion, making illegal campaign donations and witness tampering.

So news stations are photoshopping pictures just to make him look bad. So he acknowledges that the woman doesn't look like Melania. He just can't let things be. The news cycle has moved on and he's bringing it back up. 

This bullshit story is perfect for Trump to expound on.  It’s an insignificant Internet conspiracy theory.  Might as well have been orchestrated by the White House from the beginning.

Should be per takeoffs or takeoffs/landings instead of per mile flown, I think.
