  "summary": "Former US President Donald Trump blamed the Joe Biden administration for a nationwide ground stop that disrupted both domestic and international travel. Writing on Truth Social, Trump described the Biden administration's aviation management as a \"disaster\" and claimed that \"everything they touched turned bad.\" He further alleged that big money was spent unwisely, which made an old and broken system worse.\n\nAccording to Gulf News, the ground stop lasted for several hours on Friday following a technical upgrade that went wrong. This incident resulted in over 2,500 flight cancellations. Punch also reported that Trump attributed the nationwide disruptions to his predecessor's administration.",
