A couple of hours ago, the FAA declared a nationwide ground stop. This is only the second nationwide ground stop since 9/11. The exact reason is unclear: some sort of communication problem. The Trump administration, as usual, is having difficulty communicating exactly what’s going on. (This should be a router problem?)
But less than 24 hours ago, the computer giant Microsoft had a glitch that caused multiple systems to crash, including Microsoft Teams and Microsoft Outlook. We were told it wasn’t a cyberattack. Okay, if you say it with a straight face, I’ll believe you, but you still haven’t really told us what the problem was.
Just a second ago, a tanker crashed into a paddleboat in New Orleans. The paddleboat has collapsed, with 180 passengers on board. What the heck is going on? All of these things may be unrelated.
It would be nice to have a real president who could talk to real, qualified cabinet members and have the information at his fingertips. The president would then deliver a clear explanation of what’s going on. While Trump is president, this thought is completely laughable.
Trump has no ability to deliver anything clearly. He has no ability to understand complex systems. We’re never going to get a good explanation on what’s going on from the Trump administration.
What do you think is going on?
According to CC, authorities are saying this is NOT a cyberattack.
Carry on. Nothing to see here. Move on.
