"Air traffic controllers were emailed by the Trump administration urging them to quit their jobs and take mass “buyouts” just 24 hours after the D.C. plane crash.

They were among hundreds of thousands of federal workers sent the email at 8.30 p.m. Thursday to push the extraordinary offer by Trump’s aides to get civil servants to quit en masse.

The email dropped almost exactly 24 hours after an Army helicopter crashed into an American Airlines jet as it came into land at Reagan National Airport.."

“The way to greater American prosperity is encouraging people to move from lower productivity jobs in the public sector to higher productivity jobs in the private sector.”

The message was formatted as “frequently asked questions.” It suggested that by taking the buyout, workers could immediately get second jobs or vacation at their “dream destination” while still on the government payroll. That advice is contradictory to years-old regulations that have prohibited federal employees from picking up second sources of income.

We've now had two planes crash in less than a week, and he wants air traffic controllers to quit in droves? What a threat he is to public safety. What a despicable scumbag.
