I for one am pleased by success of this novel Presidential-safing ruse. Martyrdom so close before Midterm Elections would have changed things bigly. Vice Vance may not yet have developed into role that money MAGA requires - on that he ought to take the hint soon, as ‘47’ could ‘86’ at any time. This is not wishing ill. President Trump has bumbled into a very consequential media life, and paid Cohen etc. well to dissimulate and sue, so other bumblings got hidden under something else. He's had 'a life', but has he provided a roadmap for future grifters at highest level? A roadmap for future American Presidents guiding a Nation previously renown for inclusion? Readers might express thoughts. Anyway, Food Catering Box ONE was a complete success. == If one supposes that Iran had capability to shoot down (Qatar ->US’s) Air Force ONE, they did not. Interesting to wonder about that.
The narcissist didn’t think of the others, and now he is blaming someone else. It looked bad overnight.
One of the news reports mentioned fear of shoulder-fired missiles. That would seem to suggest a risk very near the Ankara airport, before craft gain much altitude. A report also mentioned that AF-Q and AF-legacy1 both appeared on public flight tracking websites, though not initially under recognizable codes. But C-32A never so appeared, being recorded only by ground plane spotters.

It’s more than shameful but that’s how narcissists behave. Maga will believe all his excuses and look over theres. Btw, where is Melania on these trips? Too busy?
. SCUM-SUCKING PUS-BAG WORM-MEAT THAT HE IS ... He didn't let anyone else know. He let the media and all other political people get on. HE IS SUCH A GUTLESS COCK-SUCKING SLIME-BALL that it wasn't important ... TO HIM ... if anyone else got killed in any attack on him.
I saw Natalie got to go with him on the secret travels. Stand by your man, … It’s like Melania no longer exists. Natalie is with him helping with late night tweets. I’m sure she goes right home after that helping.
Photoshops are good for a laff, but start with the real container's appearance: Airline – DO & CO – KULINARISCHE GENÜSSE AUF JEDEM BANKETT UND IN DER LUFT When I look at Do&Co photo, my first response is 'Gawd the 747 is beautiful'
Wow, Zeppo, that's an awful lot of hatred right there....maybe time to turn off MSNBC and chill out with Animal Planet or The Hallmark channels???
It's been a while since I tuned into MS NOW, but I have it on now. If they show any hateful photoshopping, I'll report it right away.
MS NOW just ran a 2 minute segment on the plane-switch story. It had excerpts from other news sources, analyses, and non-photoshopped images of airplanes. No catering containers though. Wherever @Zeppo Shanski rancor came from, it would not have been this.
Queen of the sky. Pretty. Yeah, but you have to use seat-miles per gallon for any reasonable equivalency to a commuter car context. The last one I flew on (Summer 2021 Lufthansa SFO-FRA) had 364 seats. Assuming that 0.18mpg is true for that model when full, that's better than 65smpg.
Queen of the sky airframes have been demoted to freight hauling where fuel costs are 'passed along' industry wide. Newer planes for pax hauling manage with one burner per wing and save 10% or more on fuel. They also slowed down to <0.86 Mach, which ruffles wing feathers less. As thread starter I am perfectly happy to wander off. Trump survived the ruse, decoy planes didn't get shot down, and we really ought to look for something else to distract attention from an American President in decline. I personally look to Todd Blanche to do some blanching. Looping back to fine food provided by airline caterers and their containers.
I'm wondering if we will hit a day where it makes sense to release the Epstein files to distract from the war.
It seem he uses mostly Daily Kos. I check it occasionally because a family member receives its emails, but don't use it as a first or second tier source. I cut the TV cable forty years ago, before any of the newfangled cable news channels were offered by the local provider, so don't have standing to compare it to MSNOW or any others of that genre.
"...release the Epstein files to distract from the war..." Not never no how. Not with the wealth of other distractions available. -- An odd use of the word 'wealth' I agree.
