    I don't so much care about your right/left assumptions. Not really relevant. My point stands in your mental storm.

    Can't deny that, but not sure about especially. Maybe.

    Like to think there's a swath in the middle just trying to lead normal lives...

    Every article published about President Trumps inheritance has different figures. Truth is no one knows how much he inherited, although it wasn’t billions, you know the amount he’s worth today. Impeachment’s? Yea I have nothing to say about those make believe shows your “honest” tax wasting dems put on.
    I’ll one up you since you insist on keeping this up. Ol’ clueless joe lied about a drunk driver killing his first wife and 13 month old daughter. Now if he can lie about that he can lie about anything. There’s what you consider a winner.
    I consider the pilot in this thread a winner, the has an opinion and is entitled to share it. More than likely served time in the Air Force as most commercial pilots have. Yea that’s what I consider a winner.

    Trouble is, to many Liberals are ticking time bombs. They can hand it out, but can't take it.

    sounds like the airline not happy with the comment either

    https://www.businessinsider.com/sou...ets-go-brandon-in-flight-announcement-2021-10

    "When asked for comment, Southwest told Long and Insider: "The Southwest Team takes pride in providing a welcoming, comfortable, and respectful environment for the millions of Customers who fly with the airline each year and behavior from any individual that is divisive or offensive is not condoned.""

    how much TDS does a pilot need to do something like that, ridiculous

    no, i don't know the amount "he's worth" today. and neither do you. and neither does deutshsbank or the irs. my best guess is that his assets are far lower than his debts.

    If his wealth was derived from inheritance then he isn’t self-made. His wealth accumulation after his inheritance of a minimum of $413 million is less than the average returns of the stock market. Meaning he could have done nothing and been more successful.

    I have never called Biden truthful or a “winner” — but if he completely demolished a man you assert is a winner (one that failed to garnigsh the most votes in two direct elections and one indirect) I guess that should make him one in your eyes. As to him ‘lying’ about the man that killed his wife and child — it was due to negligence and there are several parties that say he was intoxicated.

    A pilot saying f*** the president to a cabin of paying customers likewise calls into question what you define as a winner.

    As I understand it, its a common greeting between aircraft while in flight and has been for a month now.

    I read that one and probably 10 more all with different figures.
    Only if is this installed figure. At least I don’t call successful people losers. That’s just silly.

    Nevertheless, he added significant wealth to whatever he inherited. Most billionaires carry a high level of debt. It’s just smart business not to use your own money.

    Again, our definition of success seems to be different. Maybe you consider the family one is born into to be that measure. Or is it wealth obtained through any means?
    Do you consider the Kardashians self made also?

    I'd imagine most commercial pilots are Trump supporters.

    The pilot should not have said the phrase. I am sure he had his reasons. But, still. The reporter needs to put on her big girls pants and get over it. At the end of the day, this does not warrant the mountain out of a molehill she is making this. She crossed the line by demanding to enter the cockpit. FAA may want to weigh in here.

    he gave his political opinion, which was inviting people to ask questions, especially reporters as he was speaking on behalf of the airline, as long as all she was doing was asking to see the pilot to ask him some questions and not trying to force her way in, it would be fine

    be the same if he said, "Trump lost, gonna be a good flight" every time

    but I agree, he should not of done that, it shows the pilot is not stable and can't control himself

    Because of a phrase!!?? That’s one of the most absurd things I’ve seen posted here. If this would have been over a f••k President Trump comment you’d be leading the pack of praise.

    Yes, because the union is not stupid.

    They would not exist if there were no airlines and passengers.
