Yup, I dont understand how anybody in their right mind thinks that this is a good idea.

I used to think that way as well, at least until Karoline Leavitt walked to podium and explained it all.

@Renauda LOL

(As with any press secretary. that is got to be one of the hardest jobs. )

It wouldn't be used as-is for AF1. It would be outfited as AF1 by the American military, and that would take a while.

[Copper]

Maybe the Qatari plane exceeds the AF1 standard.

Probably exceeds the threshold of top secret American government communications provided to Qatar, if that's what you mean.

Wasn’t there a sculpture or something that the Soviets tried to give the American Embassy in the 70’s that was all filled with electronic surveillance apparatus?

I think it was the whole embassy. LOL

WHen the US was building its new embassy in Moscow, it had to be teared down when it was part completed and they flew in US construction guys to build it from the ground up.

My question is what does he want to distract us from examining.

[Wim]

@Mik A deal with Putin?

[Copper]

Mr. Trump points out that only a stupid person would turn down a free $400M plane.

He makes a good point.

We don't want a stupid person as president.

It is a difficult situation, but a nice gesture by the Qataris.

[jon-nyc]

Or a smart person who followed the constitution. Shame we don’t have one of those as president.

Any idiot could tell you there's no such thing as a free plane.
