    So you got nothin' - can't even come up with one lousy thing.

    That's TDS, for sure.

    Oooooooookay...so, Trump inherits an aviation apparatus/bureaucracy from Joe Biden, and ten days later, a horrific mid-air collision occurs over Washington DC.

    You supposition is - somehow - Trump's actions on 1/20/21/22 immediately manifested in the sudden and total incompetence of DC ATC.

    Also, that Trump's "buyout/retirement demand" caused relevant DC ATC staff to leave DC airspace unsupervised.

    Not so oddly, Newsweek finds itself similarly afflicted by TDS, but, reason having reasserted itself, concluded (check this yourself) that-

    "There is currently no indication that Trump's executive order played a role in the accident involving the two aircraft carrying 60 passengers and four crew members."


    Next?

    From Wiki:

    "It was established in January 2002 by U.S. President George W. Bush to hold terrorism suspects and "illegal enemy combatants" during the Global War on Terrorism following the attacks of September 11, 2001. As of January 2025, at least 780 people from 48 countries have been detained at the camp since its creation, of whom 756 had been transferred elsewhere, 9 died in custody, and 15 remain

    Wow, huh?

    15 people.

    Where else do you propose we put these ILLEGAL ALIENS?

    At a minumun, the savings in supporting 30K illegals goes waaaaaaaaay down, which in itself serves to justify.


    I'm sure we could send a few to you, if you want to establish proper custody?
