'Miracle on the Hudson' pilot says Trump unfit for office: 'Vote him out'
The Washington Times ^ | 09/07/2020 | Andrew Blake

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.

I believe Mr Sully is too ill-informed.

Landing a plane in a river has NOTHING to do with running a country. Wow, who does he think he is? Lol!

You did a great thing, Captain Sully.

But that doesn’t mean you make any sense when it comes to politics.

I think a majority of Americans’ opinion of you has come down a notch or two.

Sorry Sully.
I value your skill as a pilot, not as an advice source on politics.

What the sanctimonious Scully accomplished is great, but nothing compared to the river landing pulled off by the pilots of Garuda Indonesia flight GA421.

Nobody really cares what you think Master Scully. Stick to your flight plans.

I liked Sullenberger more when he wasn’t senile.

Was this the goal the whole time? Make up a story and then ambush otherwise respectable public figures for a hot take before the story is vetted to see if they say something anti-Trump? The people who think this is acceptable are awful.

Does Sully know the report was a hoax?

If he's like many other anti-Trumpers, he doesn't care.

Nothing compared to the Gimli Glider. Those pilots got pilloried more for making a mistake than getting credit for saving all those lives perfectly, after a long harrowing flight.

Donald Trump has made life better for MILLIONS of regular Americans in the past four years.

Chesley Sullenberger could never stand up to the level of withering slander handled by our courageous President and the outright treason brought against him by the forces of evil in America.

If Sully is all in with the left-wing communists and crooked Swamp, he is now my sworn enemy.
