Capt. Sullenberger urges Americans to vote Trump out

Remember airline captain Chesley “Sully” Sullenburger, the man who ditched an engines out Airbus in the Hudson River without losing a life? Now an aviation safety consultant, he’s a former Air Force officer and fighter pilot.

Sully knows leadership — and he doesn’t see it in President Donald Trump. Yesterday, under the auspices of Vote Vets, he released this powerful 90-second video urging his fellow veterans and Americans to deny Trump a second term.

Sullenburger’s landing in the river brought him fame. His post ditching career as an aviation safety authority brought him respect. This short, convincing, message will change minds.
