"I can go ramp, I can go stairs" -- Trump's audience in Texas gives him an extremely tepid round of applause as he brags about being able to go up stairs without falling

He again compares himself to Biden, which shows that Biden is still living rent free in Trump's head

the reason why the 737 Max is so strained is because its software has to fight with the flight dynamics of the plane nonstop, but especially during landing&takeoff.

It wasn't so much that, it was that they added an automated system so they wouldn't have to (expensively) re-certify and add pilot retraining requirements. Obviously they then didn't tell the pilots so they were fighting against the software that they knew nothing about while attempting the documented recovery procedures.
 
The case against the olympian arrested for vandalizing the reflecting pool has been dismissed with prejudice. So even if Trump threatened Pirro's family if she didn't try to prosecute him she couldn't do it.

The arcons, who were handwaving of this initial failure in this case were putting their money down on all the other 'vandalism' cases Trump claimed were going to happen. They are suddenly quiet on this as no other vandalism cases have been brought.

15 million was spent on this debacle. Remember when GOP congressmen cried "waste" because the park put in some cheap wooden steps so ducklings could get out of the pool and not drown?

Judge permanently dismisses Reflecting Pool vandalism case against former Olympian David Hearn

"Today’s dismissal with prejudice ensures that the DOJ cannot bring this case against him again," the judge wrote.

Congratulations to the GREAT Boeing Company for producing a plane, the 737 Max, that was able to withstand G Forces and Strain far beyond what it was designed and expected to do.
It was an amazing show of precise and powerful structural planning and design. It is about time that The Boeing Company, which builds, by far, the finest commercial airliners in the sky, was given credit for this airplane's incredible "genius!"
To Kelly Ortberg, and all of his officers and associates at Boeing, congratulations on a job well done!!!
President DONALD J. TRUMP

Isn't the 737 Max the one that keeps getting grounded for failing to stay in the air?

Yes, the US President wants us to honor that aircraft's incredible "genius", presumably because its IQ is even higher than his. Some examples of that genius:

On October 29, 2018, Lion Air Flight 610, a recently delivered 737 MAX 8, crashed into the Java Sea 13 minutes after takeoff...​
​
On March 10, 2019, Ethiopian Airlines Flight 302, operated by a four-month-old 737 MAX 8, crashed approximately six minutes after takeoff...​
​
On January 5, 2024, Alaska Airlines Flight 1282, a 737 MAX 9, suffered an uncontrolled decompression shortly after takeoff from Portland International Airport due to the blow-out of a mid-cabin exit door plug...​

He thinks its IQ is 737.

The basic engineering of the 737 frame has always been strong. The recent Boeing errors haven't changed that. All airliners are designed to withstand excessive g-forces.
 
To be fair to the 737, those Boeing designers came up with an excellent aircraft sixty years ago. They surely never imagined it would have such a long production life.

The ball got dropped much later.
