Trump claimed that a Ukranian plane that was mistakenly shot down by Iran was flying in a “bad neighborhood.”
Trump said, “Somebody could have made a mistake on the other side, could have made a mistake. It was flying in not our system, has nothing to do with us, it was flying in a pretty rough neighborhood and somebody could have made a mistake. Some people say it was mechanical. I personally don’t think that’s even a question personally. So we’ll see what happens. Just some very terrible — something very terrible happened, very devastating.”
As Americans, we should feel lucky that Trump didn’t claim that the plane deserved it because of what it was wearing, or he didn’t find some other way to blame the deaths of 176 people on the victims.
Iran’s mistake is part of the chain reaction that Trump set off when he approved the strike that killed Soleimani. If Trump doesn’t approve the strike on Soleimani, those airline passengers are probably still alive.
The problem with presidents who make up foreign policy as they go along is that they never anticipate the unintended consequences. Trump didn’t intend for 176 innocent people to die because of the events that he set into motion, but they did.
The Trump administration still hasn’t provided the evidence that was the basis for the Soleimani decision, and it looks like 176 people lost their lives because Trump needed a to politically change the subject.

Iran mistakenly shoots down a plane and it's trump's fault? Maybe the earthquake in Puerto Rico is Trump's fault also.

At least trump did declare an emergency for Puerto Rico, but not another word has come out of the White House about any kind of disaster relief for Puerto Rico!

Despite the number of times you voted for Hillary, she lost. You're a loser too.
