If George Bush was responsible for the economy Obama inherited, this bridge collapse is Obama's legacy left for President Trump.
/——/ the new technology was approveded by Obozo
Yes it seems that Obama is indeed to blame for promoting this guy.
“This project is an outstanding example of the ABC method,” said chair of FIU’s Civil & Environmental Engineering Department and director of FIU’s ABC-UTC Atorod Azizinamini, who is one of the world’s leading experts on Accelerated Bridge Construction. “Building the major element of the bridge – its main span superstructure – outside of the traveled way and away from busy Eighth Street is a milestone.”
Please note, however, that I am not "the right" blaming "the left" but a
competent scientist blaming incompetence.
2015 - Atorod Azizinamini, director of the Florida International University bridge collapse, is congratulated by Obama's Secretary of Transportation Anthony Foxx, as the Obama Administration names Azizinamini a "
Champion of Change in Transportation".
The White House Champions of Change event on October 13, 2015, honored 11 men and women who are innovating in transportation and growing the American economy. To learn more about the 2015 Champions of Change in Transportation in their own words, please click on their names below.
- Atorod Azizinamini, Chair, Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, Florida International University – Miramar, Florida
Dr. Atorod Azizimamini invented the Folder Steel Plate Girder bridge system, which provides a cost-effective alternative for rapidly replacing or retrofitting short span bridges without impacting traffic or mobility. His rapid bridge replacement technology gives states a cost-effective solution to bridge upgrades that is faster to complete.
Maybe Obama's Secretary of Transportation Anthony Foxx accepted the not-great but
rotten-to-the-core Florida International University's accreditation of Azizinamini as the basis of why Obama made him a "transportation champion of change".
FIU trusted Azizinamini and that's why Obama / Foxx trusted him. Obama's mistake was trusting FIU but as we can now see that institution is rotten to the core - the core being an incompetent President, Mark B. Rosenberg, supported by an untrustworthy board of trustees.
However Obama and Foxx are gone now so the present Florida governor and the state police and President Trump and the FBI need to decide if they still trust Azizimamini enough not to arrest him right away on a charge of involuntary manslaughter, as I would recommend.
Executive Recommendation
Atorod Azizinamini should be arrested immediately and if he is to be released on bail by a court it should be with the bail condition that he is forbidden from acting as Chair of the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering or Director of FIU’s Accelerated Bridge Construction University Transportation Center (ABC-UTC) pending his trial on a charge of involuntary manslaughter.

Canada Free Press - Father of Collapsed Florida Bridge was Obama ‘Champion of Change’ in 2015
Celebrated leading visionary bridge engineer Atorod Azizinamini, whose ABC (Accelerated Bridge Construction) technology was used to build the bridge that collapsed yesterday on Florida International University’s campus, was named an Obama era Department of Transportation ‘Champion of Change’ in 2015.
The event in which Azizinamini was awarded ‘Champion of Change’ status was webcast live at whitehouse.gov/live, no longer online.
Actually, the University of Maine has uploaded an edited video of that Obama administration webcast, here
You can see Azizinamini sitting on the panel at the end of the video, second from the left and here are a couple of photographs of him from the White House event.
