'Miracle on the Hudson' pilot says Trump unfit for office: 'Vote him out'

Chesley “Sully” Sullenberger III, the retired pilot best known for successfully pulling off the “Miracle on the Hudson,” tore into President Trump in a series of Twitter posts Friday.

Mr. Sullenberger, who served in the U.S. Air Force before starting his civil aviation career, slammed Mr. Trump over disparaging remarks he reportedly made about service-members.

“While I am not surprised, I am disgusted by the current occupant of the Oval Office. He has repeatedly and consistently shown himself to be completely unfit for and to have no respect for the office he holds,” Mr. Sullenberger, 69, said on Twitter.

its based on a lie but besides that, whoever would let the likes of Hanks portray him, is very suspect....

Tom Hanks played him, but Mr. Hankey would be a better fit.

This doesn’t smell right.
Does he usually tweet? Most grownups don’t.
And he believes the propaganda of heresay evidence in a hit piece?
Most folks with science training would be suspicious of the story. Yet no other reason was given.
You need a reason to do this...exactly what policy does hebobject to?

.....he reportedly made about service-members.”

So you form your opinions on misinformation. I swear that most of these public people don’t say/write this stupid stuff but their agents do. Or somewhere in the 127 page contract they signed has some authorization to disparage whomever is on the current sh&^ list.

That aside, Sully, shut up and fly.

He’s pissed me with this liberal diarrhea off so I say he could’ve made it back, ok? Is that the truth? Well the truth doesn’t matter to him so who cares.

I worked with Sullenberger before he quit the airline. Most airline pilots give him a “yeah, right time, right place, now please stop talking.”

Afterward, we all said the real hero was FO Jeff Skyles. He shunned the spotlight, and went back to flying airliners. Great stick, a true gentleman. All we could say about Sullenberger is: he quit.

Dems cast a wide net of lies...snarling in different folks...just fishin’ for votes...
Shame on sully...unless
