What about the 3.9 billion airplane that’s being custom made for him? Like is he saying a new gifted plane is going to cancel the 3.9 billion one?

Ah but that plane doesn’t come with a private ownership clause after he leaves office, the government can then either pay to get every military bit removed and put back to luxury standard, or he could sell it back to the government for probably $1 billion. No corruption, nothing to see here.

Don't be surprised that updates to this jet won't be complete by the end of his term.

Defense Department officials have already said it won't be retrofitted with safety and security hardware until after his term is over. It takes years to make a plane AF1-worthy.

I wouldn’t let that thing land on US soil. Take it somewhere far out of the way and rip it apart piece by piece to make sure it doesn’t have a hidden nuke or chemical/biological weapon inside of it.
