Question- would ATC know the helo was at 300ft???
It's their job? ATCs have radar that gives position, trajectory, altitude, etc.
Regardless of how high it was, why not reroute it where there is no possibility for a collision?
Ex. "Fly due south at 400ft"
*jet lands
"You're clear to cross the runway"

Enjoy minor successes while you can.
The election will bring a cold splash of reality on the hopes of another Trum term. There is no realistic path.

Whatever you think,
but she will end up in the White House with a majority maintained in the Senate and a new Democratic majority in the House… Lots of melting ensues.

Trump will never sniff the White House again. Guaranteed.

I would hazard to say that ATC aka Air Traffic Control was not effectively controlling the airspace. I'm wondering why the helicopter was allowed anywhere near the flight path of a landing passenger liner.
It happens every single day. They have their own corridor and altitude that they should stay in. For some reason last night, the Blackhawk wasn't following normal procedures.

Trump smashing the MSM and talking about a major chess game ?
The first five minutes of his speech was one of his best. After that, he turned the tragedy around and made it all about himself. In doing so, he looked like a total retard. If he had made that speech six months from now, it probably would have been fine, but let's recover all the bodies before you start talking out of both sides of your arse. I'm glad he's president, but damn, he has to make everything about him.

There have been numerous stories over the last 5 years of accidents like this waiting to happen, near misses, some minor crashes, etc.
DEI = Don't Fly
It's inexcusable that DEI (United last year proudly claimed that most of their hires were DEI and pushed them through the program despite failing competency standards)
Pilots, ATC, everything with Aviation, everything where the public lives are on the line, firefighters, Emergency rescue, etc. should never be forced to follow DEI demands, protocols and ratings. Save DEI for Costco....you can hire whatever Cashier you want, nobody is going to die.

Yet somehow Trump is going to blame this on the ATC. That is messed up for that person who will now get blamed for a helicopter being stupid.
Could be that the DEI hires were the pilots in the helicopter. The MSM seemed to be pointing the finger this morning at the commercial plan and ATC and not the helicopter.

How do you know that he doesn't know who the ATC was?
He likely knows who the helicopter pilots were too. The MSM seemed to be providing cover for the helicopter pilots early this morning. No reason to do so, unless they're are trying to hurt Trump or protect democrats (that's the only 2 things they do). Protecting the helicopter pilots does not hurt Trump, so it must help/protect democrats. I'd argue it protects their sacred cow, DEI.

The controller in communication with PAT 225 may not have done anything wrong, followed procedures in place.
Per a Helo pilot on Bongino today however the practice of allowing helos to be cleared for visual separation so close to commercial flights so frequently is inherently dangerous and may be the biggest contributing factor.
Who is responsible for putting that procedure into place to begin with is a question that needs to be asked.

It is a result of DEI hires because thousands across the country who were very qualified did not get the jobs because they were white

And as it turns out, the helicopter pilot was a woman who was being evaluated.

Hate to break it to you, but the maga movement will be in control for a lot longer than 4 years.
Being a liberal is as cool as aids, y’all are cooked for a while.

Yeah Trumps never been known to free hand bullshite off the top of his head
There's a difference between bullshitting like Trump does and making up the blame for many deaths off the top of your head.
He was right about covid, crime, illegals, lawfare, campaign spying. All the times the democrats said that Trump was just making things up turned out to be true. Trump has a history of not bullshitting in serious cases like these.
A lot of people just can't figure Trump out. They take him seriously when he's joking, and think he's bullshitting when telling the truth.

I just saw where the head of the FAA resigned a week ago after Elon told him to resign.
Mike Whitaker. Let’s see if he tells us about DEI hirings, or anything else that’s going on. Might as well hear it.
Either way, that’s a bad look.

So what’s this about?
Not ATCs fault?
Military training at fault?
So much drama at a press conference.

IIRC, aircraft are also not supposed to get within a mile of each other.
