I would hope anyone flying a plane, has been trained to do so. Regardless of their gender identity.

But witches have been flying long before the Wright Brothers invented the plane. They are the experts. The only better pilots would be birds, but they don't have hands to use the controls.

He's saying that the woke FAA Admin will hire transgender 'witches' who don't know how to fly planes because of diversity because obviously no transgender people know how to fly a plane.

If you pressed him on this he would respond that he's merely concerned that we're hiring transgender people who are not as qualified as a cis pilot simply because the trans person is trans

And I am merely concerned that Republicans are infested with Goauld parasites who are appealing to the racism and ignorance inherent in their base in order to divide us so that we will be easier to conquer. See, I can say stupid shit too, but the difference is, I am not being serious.
Edit: Im talking about Cruz saying stupid shit, not you wacky teen.

Republicans don't think any minority who has a job beyond burger flipper deserves it, because they only got hired for woke points. And they'd probably say the skepticism is warranted.

First they came to take our jobs.

It is safe to assume that if someone is a Certified pilot that they know how to land a plane. I don care if they are trans, I dont care is they are a wiccan, if they have the proper training that should be enough.

I certainly hope any transgender witches go through the full certification and training process before they start flying any commercial airliner. I am kind of curious though; do these witches need to be able to straddle the entire plane between their legs like a broomstick before they can fly the plane, or will merely sitting atop it give the plane lift? Also, is there a maximum weight limit that a transgender witch can elevate into the air or can they fly anything they put between their legs?

So how do they think that people earn their pilot license?
It is true, I saw it with my own eyes!
I am a normal hetrosexual man, one of those that they are hissing the word CIS about, the exact same way we are hissing the N-word, which we no longer are allowed to use.
I tried to be a pilot, which is something I have wanted to do my whole life.
I got in, and went to my first class in the pilot program. I was the only white hetrosexual man in the class.
The first thing our teacher did was to ask "Are any of you transexuals?".
I was happy, because now I knew who I could hit on.
Half the class raised their hands, and the teacher congratulated them. I was surprised, why would anybody congratulate them?
The teacher pulled out some diplomas and gave them to them, saying that they were fully learned pilots!
I was surprised, my mouth opened but I couldnt say a word!
Then she continued to give out diplomas to every HBQT-whatever it is and minority in the room!
Everybody left with their diplomas and I was alone in the room with the teacher.
She started to pack her stuff and had almost left the room when I finally managed to make a sound.
She looked surprised in my direction.
"Oh, I almost forgot you, Mr. White", said she and gave me a paper.
"You have to understand that we can't have lessons for one person, so you will have to pay the cancellation fee", she said and walked away.
Those flying witches must cause millions daily airplane crashes, we have to stop them!!!

Hes not saying anything. It's not a poor choice if words, it's a deliberately offensive remark by someone who has mad a career out of dehumanizing minorities

yeah, shut the fuck up. If he actually cared about how qualified the pilots are he would say you dont want an unqualified pilot. Gender identity has nothing to do with it and hes just bringing it up because hes a bigot
