Amidst the speculation, Trump posted on social media, noting that the plane was approaching the runway on a routine path when suddenly the helicopter veered directly towards it. The sky was clear, the plane's lights were on—why didn't the helicopter change its course upon seeing the plane? Why didn't the control tower alert the helicopter pilot about the approaching plane? This mishap should have been prevented. It was unfortunate.
