A few hundred people have been killed in a short period of time in a specific aircraft. I don't think it's unreasonable to ground the fleet until the cause can be determined. Way to inject your politics into the situation though. I'm sure if your boyfriend were one of the casualties, you'd be singing a different tune.
Better a pink hat than a red MAGA one!
And at least Putin isn’t the boyfriend of anyone in a pink hat...oh wait, can you count it as “boyfriend” when it’s just a 3am “come over now” call? Poor LittleHands ... he will never be no. 1 with Vlad ...
The relevant takeaway from all of these posts is that, in America, elected officials should defer to duly empowered experts. If the experts screw up, there is a remedy, and we can emplace new experts. Countries where the imperial leader make decisions they’re not qualified to make — and we will leave aside what on earth THIS guy would actually be qualified to make — are called dictatorships ... or banana republics.
