Air Force 1, at the Reagan Library.
That plane was in service for 12 years after Reagan’s last day in office. This plane might eventually be on display in Trump’s library, but only after its useful life is over. It’s a bribe.

I’m a fricker on the right who is not melting, but is simply calling a spade a spade. Go back through my posts on this and try to find one that is angry; you can’t. Trump accepted a bribe. I’m not happy about it; I think it is stupid. But that’s what Trump is, and we take the bad with the good. On balance, I’m on his side. Does that sound melty to you, yum yum?

And boomerangs back to him in four years. I'm with Penrod.

I was offered a bet on this subject.
I say it goes from DOD to NARA
Some think it's going to be a personal air hooptie.
Not going to happen.

You claiming to be on the right? Okay Mr. Conservative.
You did get the part correct about you being a fricker.

If tweet fails to load, click here. going to try one last time.
The Qatar B-747 was built in the US by Boeing. They are offering a newer 747 to replace one of the two current AF-1s that have been flying for 40 years. Which are tired and need to be replaced. The wing based at Andrews has also purchased aircraft from other countries in the past which are currently flying our VP and senior government officials. This is NOT new.
Qatar is offering the jet to the US military, not Donald Trump. The DOD contractor is based in the US, in fact my dad (a retired Air Force general) used to work for them. They are, not unironically, also working to upgrade the FAA technology as we speak. You know, Newark and elsewhere. They will get the aircraft and perform all of the security and the installation of the systems that AF-1 requires to safely move our president around the world. Not the Qatari’s. And you and I will pay for that but not the $400 million the 747 would normally cost. I could tell you exactly what is required to modify the AF-1 for safe flight but that is Top Secret and I’d have to kill you.
This AF-1 will serve the sitting president, whether they be Republican or Democrat until Boeing gets their ***** together to complete the new, upcoming improved 747s that started under Obama, was renegotiated under Trump, and was completely ignored by the Biden administration. It’s looking like 2029 to 2030 for delivery at the soonest.
I love X but sometimes the “sky is falling” conspiracy crap grows tiresome. A little knowledge goes a long way. Having flown on the current AF-1s 100 hundred times, I have intimate knowledge.

It will never be flown as a fricking hooptie for Drumpfs family or the museum.

Always!

Maize, I’m 63 in August. I believe in small government. My first vote was Reagan in 1980; I voted Republican in every Presidential election since; and I donated to Trump in all of his runs. None of this changes the fact that Trump took a bribe.

Relative to France we were.
Not really, not at all. We had the largest economy in terms of GDP by 1890. We were ahead of France by 1870 and almost even with the UK. We had little in terms of military, but that's because we chose to demilitarize after the Civil War. We were a very wealthy country during the Gilded Age.

You’re right.

How can intelligent people not see how banana republic this is? Trump is going to keep this plane. It’s going to the Air Force to have another 100 million of security upgrades then a month before Trump’s term ends it’s going to be transferred to him personally. It’s not a gift to America. It’s from a country that supports our enemies. My God. Trump doesn’t give a damn about any of us. Y’all haven’t figured that out? Real estate deals in the Middle East, a damn billion dollar Meme coin. Yeah Biden was a piece of shite, no doubt but Trump is burning what’s left of this country to the ground. And he is loving every minute of it.

So after gifting us a 747, they agree to purchase 160 from a US Manufacturer in the same week?
Sounds like a win win to me.
