That flying commercial is safe, and safer than in the past.

LOL.

You addressed your response to #3 to me. I didn’t write 3, hence the confusion.

I thought Southwest was employee owned. Or at least share owners.

“Trump’s given some the opportunity to live out their lives before the horror arrives, to others he’s given a short time to prepare.”

That’s what it looks like from where I sit.

“Thank God for President Trump.”

Seconded.

Are these those Boeing 737 Max planes? I think I read that SWA has these planes.

Yes they do, and if I remember correctly the number of 737 MAX planes SWA has is somewhere around 35. SWA has more than 750 planes flying daily.

Don't think this is Max but this has been ongoing for some period of time now.

From the article:
Labor negotiations .

Southwest and the union have been locked in tense contract negotiations for
more than six years. The Federal Aviation Administration said it has heightened
its oversight of Southwest which is standard procedure during labor issues.
