Gotta tell a funny story about Marine One and the Marine on guard.

George Bush Sr and some dignitary and their wives flew to Camp David. Marine is at attention while Bush, the dignitary and his wife all get off....no Barbara. Marine stands there at attention and then starts to think, what if she had some medical emergency and they had already left and didnt realize. He waits a few moments more and says screw it and goes inside to make certain she is okay.

She is on her knees with a napkin in one hand picking up stuff on the floor with the other. She looks up and says "I know you boys have to clean this place up, they just cut the White House lawn and we tracked all this grass in here".

She was a classy lady.

This is clearly Trump’s fault.



How are you not embarrassed?

I think a human being has to start the process to make that happen.

Do they finally have an impeachable offense that will stick?

Somebody didn't cross-check when they should'a cross-checked.

Wait, the final part of the test is to simply cut off the slide?

Do they just use duct tape to put the new one on?

Skeptical

Talked to some USSS guys that worked the detail out at Kennebunkport. They related that there was a foot post out by the water that no one wanted to work due to the freezing temps, winds and wet conditions. Barbara found out they had agents standing out there and she had a heated and air conditioned hut built for the agents from her personal funds.

My buddy joked that their supervisors said they were going to be pissed if an assassin started shooting and all the agents rushed to protect Barbara leaving POTUS exposed. They loved her.

The fun part was that President Trump insisted that the deployment was part of "a test."

Right. The crew picked a time...right before the President was scheduled to leave...to delay the President's departure.

Not a big deal. Things happen, particularly on complex aircraft.

It's just remarkable how a lie is what President Trump defaults to in explaining even the small things to the American public.

I had to when he said it will take about 15 minutes and that they were going to cut it off.

Actually, that’s pretty standard behavior for a narcissistic grifter.
