President Donald Trump has remained silent on the nationwide flight crisis caused by a telecommunication outage affecting the air traffic control system, as announced by the Federal Aviation Administration on Friday. Instead of addressing the flight delays and cancellations, the president used the opportunity to promote his bipartisan bill, the Motion Picture, Television and Entertainment Revitalization Act, which aims to keep entertainment jobs in the United States.
Trump praised the bill's bipartisan support and potential benefits for actors, producers, and blue collar crew members, emphasizing the importance of making it a priority. He also claimed that the passage of this bill would result in a tenfold return of money to the Treasury's coffers. The cause of the communication outage remains unknown, and the FAA is investigating the issue.
