Lawrence O'Donnell recently criticized Donald Trump's response to a plane crash in DC, calling it 'profoundly ignorant' and highlighting the former president's lack of sympathy for the victims.
According to O'Donnell, every president in history has begun their response to a plane crash by expressing sympathy for the victims and their families, but Trump failed to do so.
Instead, Trump used the opportunity to discuss his own issues, including his opposition to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) initiatives.
O'Donnell's comments were echoed by other late-night hosts, including Jimmy Kimmel, who called Trump's press conference 'deeply stupid'.
The View star Ana Navarro also expressed her outrage over Trump's response, stating that she was 'so angry' about his lack of empathy for the victims.
Trump's response to the plane crash has been widely criticized, with many accusing him of being tone-deaf and insensitive.
The incident has also sparked a broader conversation about Trump's leadership style and his ability to respond to crises.
As the debate continues, one thing is clear: Trump's response to the DC plane crash will be remembered as one of the most egregious examples of his 'profoundly ignorant' approach to leadership.
