Donald Trump today tweeted that "airplanes are becoming far too complex to fly."

He was responding to the UK's decision to ground Boeing 737 MAX 8 planes after a fatal crash over the weekend.

An Ethiopian Airlines plane travelling to Nairobi crashed in Addis Ababa just minutes after take-off, killing all 157 people on board.

The same type of aircraft crashed in Indonesia last October.

In his tweet, Trump added that pilots were being replaced by computer scientists, and that he didn't want "Albert Einstein" to be his pilot.

Cal Thomas and Marion McKeone discussed this in our US slot, as well as Tucker Carlson's controversial remarks about women.
