The President of the United States is likely the most threatened man in the world. As a man who is likely constantly running from impending assassination, it’s surprising that we are just now learning that the Obama Administration entrusts a Middle East company with the servicing of the President’s airplane.
An attack against Air Force One would be an attack on both the President and an Icon of American diplomacy, and is for that reason no doubt an attractive — if once unattainable — target for terrorists around the world.
With this revelation, though, a path to the president through the Middle East has been opened. While the White House is adamant that security measures are in place that would ensure that anyone with contact with the plane is thoroughly vetted, the question remains:
Why allow for the possibility in the first place?
USA Today has the facts on the next page. Check them out:
Hhhmmmm really? Trump needs to fly his own plane then.
Trump Probably won’t use it. Won’t waste his time debugging it.
He’s talked about bringing his own security and I’m pretty sure he’s got all of this covered. In fact I wouldn’t be a bit surprised if he just mostly turns Mar-a-lago into the new WH. Wdn’t surprise me a bit.
Prob why he wants to fly in his own plane
Why middle East?
Is this serious???
F**k that!
I hope trump doesn’t use it before it is thoroughly checked out , this could be an accident waiting to happen. He can have them service it then park it for later use when he is out and then oops ya know .
You have got to be kidding
No way I would ride in it.
