Another Leftist circle jerk of a thread. The chickens are running around with no heads. Extremely comical and childish.

I notice that a lot of Trump supporters refer to his critics as "haters". So I have a question for you: have you ever referred to Obama as "Obummer", "Obozo", a communist, Marxist, socialist, etc.? Did you ever push the "birther" hoax and claim that Obama wasn't even a U.S. citizen? If so then you don't have any business going off about "Trump haters".

It's not only arguing with idiots with these people it's arguing with 3-5 year olds as well.

President Trump (and some airlines, as well as some in government) have been pushing to privatize Air Traffic Control in the U.S.

My guess is that Trump is putting Dunkin forward as a puppet- to carry out the proposed privatization.

Obama is a Marxist bozo who wasn't born here

That might describe Trumps appointees to the tee! Remember "the mooch?"

No, I never called Obama names, or went down the birther road. He was President. However, I have been called a Trumpist, Trumpling, Trumpeter, and every other name on here. And it is hate. A blind, irrational hate.

Will anyone be surprised if he names his personal chef to lead the FDA.


In this case, even WAPO says that Dunkin is qualified to hold the FAA position.

In all fairness (and I'm not a Trump supporter, )it appears that Dunkin isn't just a pilot. From CNN:

Quote:
"John Dunkin isn't just a pilot," an administration official told Axios. "He's managed airline and corporate flight departments, certified airlines from start-up under FAA regulations, and oversaw the Trump presidential campaign's air fleet, which included managing all aviation transportation for travel to 203 cities in 43 states over the course of 21 months."
https://www.cnn.com/2018/02/25/polit...ion/index.html

With that said, it still does seem like nepotism to me and I still question the ulterior motives.
