You might can point the finger sooner, just not for the reason OP hints at. The helicopter was military, and there a closer link to Trump and his administration given that. I wouldn't jump to conclusions, but he is already blaming DEI, because of course he is.

I mean it was a Black Hawk, that seems like a DEI hire. /s

Black Hawk Tuah is the cause of the crash!

(Also /s, of course)

They did say they wanted the military to be more lethal. Didn't think they'd start with such soft targets as domestic passenger airlines though.

Well, DEI makes the pilots gay and everybody knows what the gays do when there's a stiff stick in front of them. It's so simple.
