President Trump has sparked outrage after revealing that he will not be visiting the site of the recent plane crash in Washington DC, citing his dislike of water as the reason. The president made the comment during a press conference on Thursday, where he also announced that he would be meeting with some of the families of the victims of the tragedy.
When asked about his decision not to visit the crash site, Trump explained that it was because the site is located in a body of water, and he does not want to get wet. This excuse has been met with widespread criticism, with many accusing the president of being insensitive and disrespectful to the families of the victims.
The plane crash, which occurred earlier this week, resulted in the loss of several lives, and the community is still reeling from the tragedy. Many had expected the president to visit the site and pay his respects to the victims and their families, but it seems that Trump has other priorities.
Despite his initial reluctance to meet with the families of the victims, Trump did announce that he would be meeting with some of them, although he did not specify when or where the meeting would take place. This decision has been seen as a small consolation by some, but others have criticized the president for not doing enough to support the families of the victims.
The president's decision not to visit the crash site has also raised questions about his commitment to supporting the families of victims of tragic events. In the past, Trump has been accused of being insensitive and tone-deaf in his response to tragedies, and this latest incident has done little to dispel these concerns.
As the community continues to mourn the loss of life and come to terms with the tragedy, many are left wondering why the president is so opposed to visiting the crash site. While Trump may have his reasons for not wanting to get wet, it is difficult to see how this excuse justifies his decision not to pay his respects to the victims and their families.
In the end, it remains to be seen how the president's decision will be received by the public and the families of the victims. One thing is certain, however: Trump's excuse for not visiting the crash site will go down in history as one of the most bizarre and insensitive reasons ever given by a president.
