Southwest Airlines Pilot Caught On Hot Mic Ranting About Liberals | TODAY

Did she say "the pilots views don't represent the views of the other 60, 000 employees"....?? Can we get a fact check on that?

[Qagtol]

Well said. Looks like Southwest hires great pilots.

[dcwinebuff]

Give that pilot a raise. Let's face it, if he was trashing conservatives, he would get a promotion and a spot on The View with Joy Behar.

[caroligee]

Well I drive an f'n Hyundai, and I agree with everything else he had to say!

[mariayoung]

Couldn't agree more with this Pilot!

[JamaicanemeraldQueen]

SOUTH WEST IS MY AIRLANE..this does not prevent me from flying SW! HEe is entitled to his opinions..as long as he get me to my destination safely..

[whathappenedtocommonsense]

I’ll give Southwest my business BECAUSE OF THIS👍🏻

[Rollingalucky]

News headline, “Pilot has his own thoughts”

[ttex]

This is exactly how everyone feels and I don’t have a problem with what he said😂

[TMBARD]

The man deserves a promotion and raise. When people have a birth certificate here in the United States, and they ironically support foreign regimes and the same ideas which foreign adversaries promote, then you have a population in dire need of cleansing.

[lerpykerp]

Will fly Southwest only from now on after this. Bless that Pilot!

[Mb-wbor]

Definitely going to fly southwest from now on.

[fizixx]

Whether it's heard or not, this is what people think and feel about this. I'm fine with what was said. Most people I know feel the same way as well.

[tarek]

Hahaha keepin it real! I’m flying southwest as much as possible from now on

[JetTech]

The pilot has a right to his opinion but FAA reg. states a “sterile” cockpit while taxing and below 10, 000’.

[lms]

😂🤣 Oh big deal. What are they gonna do, prove him right? It's his freedom of speech & he is expressing how we *ALL* feel.

[mattgates]

My kind of pilot also I think this is how anyone with a brain feels

[ncogneatoafterdark]

Had he been talking about conservatives he would be praised.

[Dingoroaming]

Ya his views are those of MOST THE WORLD

[SEKI]

You got me wondering about the brand lol.. this man deserves a lot love and raise
