Trump Screws Up Again -Alex Travell

ANALYSIS:
The past Saturday, a fire broke out at Trump Tower, killing one man and injuring six firemen. The man killed was Todd Brassner, 67, a resident of the building's 50th floor. He was taken to the hospital in critical condition, but later died. Fortunately, the fire was contained to the 50th floor of the tower, which is located on Fifth Avenue in New York. It took about two hours to put the whole fire out. Of course, Trump did not provide the upper-level residents with fire sprinklers.
I hope this tragic accident will maybe convey the fact that Trump is a danger. I MEAN COME ON, HE DIDN'T PUT FIRE SPRINKLERS IN THE UPPER-LEVEL APARTMENTS. I don't care how good of a businessman he is, and if he can't properly take care of one building, then how the hell is he going to take care of one big ass country....

It’s unsettling to see that there weren’t sprinklers to prevent any accidental fires. Every building should have some sort of solution to whatever problem occurs.
ReplyDeleteI'm surprised that the building even passed fire inspection laws. It is devastating that someone had to die for people to figure this out.

ReplyDeleteYou would think that a building of that much prestige would be one of the safest
