The Trump Effect is dangerous. A supporter of the president-elect went on an intimidating tirade calling women Hillary Bitches as he hailed Donald Trump. What is more amazing is that Delta Airlines did absolutely nothing to remove the obvious threat from the airplane. Watch the video here.
"How many people man?" the unhinged Trump voter shouted. "Really? Ain't nobody gonna say sh$t on this plane?"
A passenger in the back of the airplane shouted that she could not hear. She likely did not know it was an unhinged Trump supporting passenger shouting.
"You can't hear me?" the Trump supporter shouted back. "Donald Trump, baby."
Pointing to another passenger, he shouted, "That's right. This man knows what's up. We've got some Hillary Bitches on here? Come on 'baby.' TRUMP. That's what I'm talking about; hey baby. Donald Trump. He's your president; every god damn one of you. If you don't like it, too bad."
The sad part of the entire ordeal is that the employees from the airline seem to do nothing.

(13,783 posts)I've pondered what to do in such a situation. I hope I'd take the risk.
What can we do to sanction Delta for their really bad decision making????

(100,079 posts)They would most likely buy tickets on Delta flights so they can make their own videos and report anyone who doesn't allow their bad behavior.

(21,155 posts)I asked her yesterday if she saw this video. She hadn't but was still weepy about the election. She lives in Arizona. Her husband and two sons voted for the orange hitler. She told me her only solace now is going overseas working on European trips. I wanted to reach through the phone and hug her. She sounded so sad. I thought about sending her the link but after that conversation decided not to.
But if I was on the flight I would have told the guy go STFU.

We have followed up with the teams involved and all agree that this customer should not have been allowed to continue on the flight. Our responsibility for ensuring all customers feel safe and comfortable with Delta includes requiring civil behavior from everyone. The behavior we see in this video does not square with our training or culture and follow up will continue so we can better ensure our employees will know they will be fully supported to make the right decisions when these issues arise."
