Original Title: Trump: Rising Inflation, Massive Flight Cancellations, US Is Like a ‘Third World’ Country.
Overseas Network, January 2nd According to a report on the US news site “Newsweek” on the 1st, on New Year’s Eve, former US President Trump spoke about a number of social issues such as rising inflation and a large number of cancellations of flights to the United States at a party held in Mar-a-Lago, and claimed that “the United States is like a third world country”.
At the party, Trump told hundreds of attendees, “We’re seeing a war, there’s talk of nuclear weapons, inflation is through the roof, and all these things we’re seeing are pointless and sad.”
“People can’t even get on planes now.” Trump further said, “People can’t fly from New York to Florida, which is very sad. We (the United States) are like a third world country.”
News website ‘Newsweek’ said Trump was responding to the cancellation of a large number of flights to the United States. A few days ago, the United States encountered a winter storm and Southwest Airlines’ own problems, which led to the cancellation of more than 15,000 flights from December 22 to 25, 2022.
