Trump is lambasting the previous administrations led by Obama and Biden, accusing them of compromising the standards for air traffic controllers. He asserts that during his tenure, he rectified these lax regulations by instituting stringent criteria that mandated only individuals of exceptional mental acuity and psychological fortitude could qualify for these pivotal roles.
“I overhauled the lackluster Obama-era standards and replaced them with extraordinary requirements,” Trump proclaimed. “You’ll recall that under my directives, only those possessing the highest aptitude, supreme intellect, and psychological resilience were permitted to become air traffic controllers. That was not the case previously… I have always believed that this profession, along with others, warrants such rigorous vetting.”

“However, when I exited office and Biden assumed the presidency, he reverted to standards even more lax than before. I prioritized safety, while Obama, Biden, and the Democrats placed policy and politics at an unprecedented level, the lowest ever witnessed.”
During a press conference convened in response to the tragic collision between a passenger aircraft and a military helicopter the previous night, Trump reiterated his stance. “I put safety first, while Obama, Biden, and the Democrats prioritized policy,” he asserted.

“Just a week ago, almost immediately upon taking office, I signed an executive order, a powerful one, restoring the highest standards for air traffic controllers and others,” Trump added.
“You have to possess innate talent — genius-level abilities. Regular individuals simply cannot perform these duties adequately. I will restore faith in American air travel by ensuring only the most exceptional candidates are entrusted with these critical responsibilities.”
