It is not "common sense" to believe that an air traffic controller (who Trump had no idea who he or she was") did not pass the medical exam, security investigation, pre-employment testing, and skills assessment required for this position.

They were a person short because the supervisor allowed another controller to go home early... that's a problem not the ethnicity of any of the controllers.

Trump is merely trying to make himself look good and he doesn't care if he looks like a total moron in the process.
