Donald Trump faced backlash after making a seemingly light-hearted remark about the tragic American Airlines crash during a press conference. The crash, which occurred on January 29, involved an American Airlines jet and a military helicopter, killing all 64 people aboard. Trump was asked if he planned to visit the crash site, and his response—”What’s the site? The water? You want me to go swimming?”—was widely criticized for lacking empathy. Many online commentators accused him of showing no compassion for the victims and their families. Trump’s earlier comments on social media questioned why the helicopter was not directed out of the flight path of the plane. His behavior during the press conference, marked by interruptions and jokes, was met with outrage from those mourning the tragedy, with some expressing disbelief and frustration over his lack of sensitivity. The crash, which left no survivors, has been described as a preventable disaster.
