Reminder: This was a gift from Qatar. Then hundreds of millions of our tax dollars were spent refurbishing a plane that will be decommissioned in about 2 years. The question is: Will the paint peel off like his other project?

Qatar has so much more to get from Trump from this gigantic open bribe. The international community is looking at it with two sets of eyes. One is aghast that a president is allowed to be bribed so open and easily. The other is please at how easy it is.

I completely see what you’re saying! One thing we know for sure, he’s completely alone. But yeah… I’d like to see karma in action with him. He seems to skirt every consequence.

We'll just send a bill and repo when he dont pay it. While we're at it, we are going to be freezing all his and family's accounts and reversing everything he's done, including his tax lawsuit settlement. Presidential duties cover the next Dem president investigating corruption. The FIND OUT stage

im old enough to remember when we laughed at North Koreans applauding their supreme leader‘s vanity because of fear. And here we see Americans applauding their own supreme leader‘s vanity because…

What a MAN he is, wannabe 🤴🎖️, what a disgrace for all of us. I mean Only Shit is coming out of him #OnlyShit

Trump was given the plane and plans to take it for his personal use when he leaves in violation of the Emoluments Clause. A Democrat president could enforce the law and make him pay for it if he wants to keep it. A Republican would let him get away with it.

This was a bribe .. pure and simple. Like most everything the convicted felon does, somewhere in the mix he'll profit someway or another. And like most things he does for himself, American taxpayers take a hit for it.

Unless that refurb included taking it apart piece by piece, down to the superstructure, and then reassembling it after a thorough inspection, they cannot 100% guarantee it’s free of surveillance gear of some kind. And the Qataris would be fools not to try.

Clapping for an airplane. Clearly, these folks need to get a life. All the sycophants must pay homage to their Emperor. So many sheep are willing to follow anyone who promises them things they cannot deliver. 🤣

Who are these pukes clapping for greed and corruption?!! Disgusting! #doesntRepresntAmerica #takeBackAmericaFromTheRich #EspteinClassPurgeComing

What is the progress on the NEW AF1 already in build when this bribe was announced? What makes Trumbp think he gets to keep a government plane refurb’d / upgraded on OUR dime? Why does he get, or need a plane the equivalent of a new AF1 to toot around in, OR for his “library?”

The $400M 'gift' from QATAR that the corrupt US regime leader will keep as his own after leaving office has cost the TAXPAYER an additional $400M in refurbishment. No wonder there's no money for food, healthcare, housing & all the other urgent needs of Americans. 🥺 As long as Lyin' Con's happy! 🤬

(1/2) Bah! I say we keep the plane when Trump leaves office and we send him off with nothing more than a swift kick in the pants! "Emoluments clause" and, technically, the plane was gifted to him as the president of the U.S., not as Trump, private citizen, so when he leaves office he gets no plane.

(2/2) If he's dead set on trying to take a plane to home with him, his options are two: 1. Purchase the plane from the U.S. for a cool $2 billion. or 2. Go back to Qatar as a private citizen and see if they will gift him a second plane. Does that not sound fair?

The Democrats need to get the team together that will scour the country looking for trump references, no matter how small or how big to erase as much of trump rot as possible. This will be a major task, no doubt. The lingering stench of old man, feces, and diet coke alone will be almost impossible

How many bugs, tracking devices, and other spy tech items are in that plane ya think? I know damn well that they didn't strip it to bare metal. The original interior is intact inside it. It wasn't changed.

Ask yourself this.... would you fly on this plane? Isn't it like being a horrible person (billionaire, republican, neoliberal corporatist Democrat, MAGA, generic Christo-fascist) and hoping your prepared food is from someone you trust?

No one wanted to buy it from Kuwait. Now it's truly unsellable except maybe to China -- they'd like to see how it's wired up. It'll cost a fortune to decommission that plane, given that it's full of classified systems and apparatuses.

Sorry, I meant the Qatari royal family, not Kuwait. No one wanted that flying Arabian Nights-style flying palace. Qatar couldn't sell it, so they finally gave it away. Maybe the royal family got a tax deduction. 🤷‍♂️

There is absolutely no way id fly on a plane in such rough shape they couldn't sell it for ages then THIS Prez, DOT, FAA, SS, and no doubt some "buddies" rehabilitated 😂 It's the hooptie of AF1s 🤦🏻‍♀️ Tricked out & gaudy 90% of spending, safety 10% SMH

To be fair, no one wanted a 747-8i fitted out like King Shahryar's palace. No one's going to want an even older 747-8i that was fitted out as Air Force One. We spent $900 million to keep the plane in the air for two years as Trump's vanity project, which will sit on public college property he stole.

#IranContra3.0: Another U.S. taxpayer funded Dictator gas station deal goes down. In 2019 when Barr replaced Sessions I’m thinking: What’s the Iran Contra Coverup Guy doing here?

The stupidity of painting the Lincoln Reflection Pool Blue is that it raises the water temperature by 2 degrees makes algae grow faster! ROCKET SCIENCE!! #USDemocracy #LincolnReflectionPool

It shouldn’t be decommissioned. Our tax dollars paid for its refurbishment at a non-disclosed cost (…classified info…😠) It’d be selfish of the president to let it sit at his future “pres library” (or to abscond with it) It should be left to service future administrations.

There is Reporting that this aircraft is so wide in wing-span and other technical situations, that very few airports can accommodate it. That's why Qatar got rid of it! Bonus is that Trump is easily flattered and stupid AF and he fell for this ploy. While us Taxpayers pay $1B to fortify it.

I hope he crashes and goes up in a ball of fire, except I don't want anything bad to happen to the crew. But, if there is a trump, or trumper, it would be ok for them to be in that same ball of fire.

It’s a standard Boeing 747-8i airframe, they’re widely in cargo and passenger use around the world. They are wider & can’t use some passenger gates because wings interfere with neighboring gates, but Air Force One parks and unloads on the tarmac. The official USAF AF1 next generation are the same.

No he has to live past his term. Otherwise he becomes a martyr. The line will be the Dems killed him with all their hate. Every investigation will be weakened. He needs to see what is on the other end of his administration.

That’s not even the colors of America and he needs to stop spending tax payers money on stupid shit nobody wants, it’s not his house or his historic sites to be changed. Go fuck up moron lardo and make fat Donny pay for his own plane.

I wish I could be the guy that gets to repo this aircraft when Congress, the Treasury, and the courts issue an order for it to be seized and auctioned off. All of the ill-gotten gains need to be clawed back quickly and decisively, or this bad behavior will continue to plague our government.

They tried for something like 3 yrs. to sell it. Of course the person with Little Mushroom Dick energy wanted it. He was also warned not to paint it with the dark blue because it will absorb too much heat and it could go BOOM. The guy is an idiot. He knows nothing about anything except how to grift.

A democratic Congress and POTUS could impose a ban on unsafe aircraft such as this to be used for non-governmental purposes in US airspace, or impose fees to compensate for accommodations. The FAA could produce NOTAMs and TFRs to severely restrict the use of this aircraft via email in 30 seconds. 🥸

I guess the question is…if at the end of his term Trump is going to take this plane for his personal use, should he have to pay us back!?!!!?

With you on this. The last election was not taken seriously enough, the next ones better be, if we even get the chance. Even decommissioned — why do people believe he gets to keep the presidential plane just because he asserts it?

He’s a fucking child. More of a Damien. He derives pleasure from having his name on everyone’s lips & thinks he’s successfully punked us, thumbing his nose. Most people hate him. But you know that. There is a comeuppance brewing.

I hope it doesn't, AFTER we don't get stuck paying for repairs. I wonder how Qatar is feeling about the millions of $$$ in damage that they have suffered because of Trump's fake Ego War.
