Holy shit. A clip of Trump fast asleep and about to fall out of his chair when he was among world leaders is going viral.

This is absolutely humiliating on the world stage. Trump does not have the stamina to remain president.

@Greg__Snow @MCCCANM Fair to assume they were close to or past V1 when the engine departed the wing, so it probably bounced all over the place when it hit the ground causing a lot more damage.

Horrific all the way around. :(

@BitchelMitchel @BEASTfromEAST73 The engine pods are pretty close to the fuselage on the MD11s. Left engine is definitely either missing or on fire.

@Drew__Buckets Pounds, not gallons

@FinalTelegraph @krassenstein 280,000 pounds, not gallons.

@ArcInfinty @TheNewsBadger @nicksortor Pounds, not gallons. A trip to HNL would certainly clock in around 250-280,000 pounds of fuel.

@TheNewsBadger @nicksortor Should be 280,000 pounds, which is how fuel capacity and use is measured on transport category aircraft.

@99_the_comments @DaleStarkA10 The gear handle and flaps control aren't close to each other, feel completely different, and operate differently. There's almost no chance that the FO operated the wrong control. The RAT was deployed, so at the moment seems like a systems failure.

This is so infuriating, I don’t know if the judges in these immigration cases are in cahoots with ICE. Arresting people like this just doesn’t seem to square with our Democratic values. I’m all for removing people who are violent but this is suspect!

@Dreamweasel @Strandjunker I'm not divided.

Fuck 'em both. They deserve each other.

Musk killed 300,000 people, mostly children. There is no redemption arc.

Looking forward to the apology from anyone who voted for Donald Trump because they thought Hillary and Kamala were too emotional to be president.

@tbailey1976 @PreetBharara Here's hoping.

@realspitfire @elonmusk LOL. No fucking chance. Both of them can roast in hell.

I'm trying to imagine all of the phone calls and texts happening in political and billionaire circles right now as a result of Trump and Musk falling out. Has to be completely epic.

Also, if you have any particularly bad news to release, now is a REALLY good time to do it.

Man. The right wing copium happening in the replies right now is absolutely hilarious. Love this for them.
