Nobody had the guts to tell him he could not. Like any other dictator he is surrounded by people that bow like bamboo.

Correction - He took the bribe.

whidbey54.bsky.social•13 days ago

A Bribe!

gregmlink.bsky.social•14 days ago

Of COURSE he did. Wait til he starts using it to get to and from Sea-to-Lake Federal Archive and Gold, and to get to his birthday pride parade

Fucking grifter

This country is garbage

mep66.bsky.social•13 days ago

And $1 billion to retrofit it.🤬🤬

ebarnescalgary.bsky.social•13 days ago

AND he allowed to use it … after he leaves office … who decides this?

ebarnescalgary.bsky.social•13 days ago

Illegally.

Ol yam tits should pay for ALL necessary upgrades since it will be bestowed on HIM once out of the WH! Can you image all the invites he’ll be handing out to show it off??? Massive donations to HIS wallet will be necessary for admission!!!

I don’t want my tax dollars to go toward maintaining a 747 for the Trump family.

steveio2.bsky.social•13 days ago

He's got to go.

themightybmz.bsky.social•13 days ago

Who is paying for all the repairs and upgrades to make it secure enough to be Air Force 1? What’s the miles per gallon of fuel again vs current Air Force 1?

island-plinker.bsky.social•13 days ago

That's not for the DOD to decide! This is an article one issue and congress deals with this

nonnylynda.bsky.social•13 days ago

Do you REALLY think THIS congress is going to stand up to him and stop it?

Seriously?

island-plinker.bsky.social•13 days ago

That doesnt negate the fact it's for congress to decide

janeperry.bsky.social•14 days ago

Gosh I hope all his take offs and landings are safe- you know, like ours are? Effing filthy pig.

gmacelia.bsky.social•13 days ago

Congress should initiate legislation that says no money can be used to ready that jet until all of the other cuts that have had to be made are restored. Lost jobs, closing depts., healthcare, social security and snap benefits as well as a balanced budget that fixes our debt.

gmacelia.bsky.social•13 days ago

I don't buy a project car when I can't feed my family, pay my mortgage and square my credit card debt.

nonnylynda.bsky.social•13 days ago

Oh c'mon now, do you really think that THIS session of Congress is going to stand against ANYTHING their gold plated emperor wants?

Pffftttt...they have already abdicated thr purse to him, along with all legislative functions.

They won't lift a finger, theyre on his side, not ours

There was a typo in your post. I'm certain you meant "bribe" not "plane" You're welcome.

Trump is never going to fly in it as President.

Interesting.
All job creation by Knob Jockey and its butt kissers are only related to Military or Urban Militia.

zomneydomnitz.bsky.social•13 days ago

It's golden and gaudy. They knew he couldn't resist it.

oldlymegagafan.bsky.social•13 days ago

It will never be used as Air Force One. It will take years and millions of taxpayer dollars to make it secure. The 2 Boeing jets that are in production will be completed before this thing ever gets off the ground. It’s 100% a bribe and he will get away with it, per usual.

Iran assumed thrilled to have a new target. That it’s Qatari only sweetens their threat.

uglynapkinrings.bsky.social•13 days ago

We all get to use it. It’s a gift to America.🙄

jamkam6969.bsky.social•13 days ago

That's grift, cuz it rhymes with gift.

Such irony this seven-year-old beater jet won't finish it mils-pec upgrade until 2029 when Trump is being wheeled around by orderlies in a federal correctional institution not of his choosing.
