Remember when GreatWhiteNorth/RockLobster chastised us for making fun of Biden’s studder that he’s had his whole career?

Ha, no don’t trust the media. A whole bunch of analysts on X are trying to figure it out. How do you propose getting rid of Putin?

I read Trump couldn’t be there, so it makes sense Putin wouldn’t go either.

His Boring company is making headlines too so he has that to fall back on.

He might not need to train with Steveson anymore?

Non-partisan AI non-citizen voter. Shouldn’t be a problem.

I think it’s a ridiculously bad look but it’s just Trump’s way of getting what he wants. Boeing will have to make new assurances, or the contract will go to Airbus. Just my 2 cents.

Fun!

Schumer should really have his own podcast. The Schumer Daily Outrage.

Try to keep up. Nobody has suggested a new AF1 being slow-built by Boeing is going into the future Trump library. That might go in the 2090 Presidential library.

This topic would have been over 400 posts ago if Vak wasn’t so adamant that the deal was legit. Nobody expects the US to take in used foreign equipment for AF1. Boeing needs to get to work.

You’ve got me thinking. Trumps library could be on Mars. Mars-a-lago.

That would be cool. Have it move in/out of the library on rail. Scratch that. Autonomously.

I suppose I should keep my mind open that there might be a HUUUGE Trump library someday, big enough to park the old restored Boeing that saved taxpayers billions. But I still believe he’s just trying to put more pressure on Boeing to deliver the promised AF1 before his term is up. I’ll bet they stalled work on AF1 last fall when he won.

If someone was actually allowed to buy the gutted plane, let alone fly it, it would look like a former squad car. Embarrassing.

No it won’t. Some features of the plane like the conference table might.

Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, and you feed him for a lifetime. We need to teach our next generation to save like our grandparents did.

Well I assume there will be ongoing education and incentives to grow the money. My first comment listed the benefits of learning how to invest at a young age.

Imagine that $1000 growing enough to pay for their college education? Taxpayers pay $1,000 vs $150,000 for college loan bailouts.

$1,000 for every child born in America. Tax free like a Roth IRA Exposed kids to investing at a young age!

If Boeing ever delivers, this plane will be gutted and pieces of it put on display in the library. Nobody is ever going to buy or much less fly a former Presidential aircraft.

I would expect JD Vance, or whoever the next president is, to have taken delivery of Boeing’s aircraft. You know the one Trump should be flying around and right now.

The jet aircraft from Qatar is described as a gift to the United States government, not a personal gift to Donald Trump. According to multiple sources, the Boeing 747-8 is being offered by Qatar’s Ministry of Defense to the U.S. Department of Defense for temporary use as Air Force One. The arrangement involves the plane being transferred to the U.S. Air Force, which will modify it to meet presidential specifications, with costs covered by the U.S. After Trump’s term, the plane is expected to be donated to the Trump Presidential Library Foundation, raising concerns about potential personal use by Trump post-presidency. Qatar’s media attaché, Ali Al-Ansari, emphasized that the transfer is a government-to-government transaction under review, not a finalized gift to an individual. However, critics argue the eventual transfer to Trump’s library foundation creates a perception of personal benefit, prompting ethical and legal scrutiny under the Constitution’s Emoluments Clause.[](https://www.nytimes.com/2025/05/11/us/politics/trump-qatar-jet-gift-air-force-one.html)[](https://www.cnn.com/2025/05/11/politics/trump-luxury-jet-qatar-air-force-one)[](https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2025/05/11/trump-air-force-one-qatar/)

I wonder how much the pharmaceutical industry gifts politicians behind the scenes?
