So here's a question... Did Qatar install the same security that the existing 747 this is replacing? Did we give it to them in trade? Or is there any? How compromised is it?
Would it matter?
At least we know there won't be the most sophisticated Chinese & Russian tracking and listening devices onboard. What a relief!
No no, let's just let him fly around in a jet that doesn't have the defensive capabilities of the VC-25! I'm sure there won't be any sudden missiles in the flight path, it'll be perfectly fine! Trust the genius, really.
It explicitly states in the constitution that the prez cannot accept gifts from a foreign country. It's plain text.. no interpretation necessary. But what do I know... I can only read.
That's been said for every fucking thing the orange bastard has said or done for years now. And yet they keep happening, because who's going to stop him? He's been shown time and again that there are no consequences for his actions.
To #1: Yes, completely and absolutely correct and corrupt, But to #2: Yes, it will. There are no more Watchdogs. It will absolutely happen. And No One will do anything about it.
They could just flat out ask him shit. He'd spill on anything and everything. "Sir, I'm a big fan of yours. You're the greatest president in the history of presidents. So...What are the nuclear launch codes?"
And nobody (that counts) has anything to say about this most illegal act? Just gonna let the rapist felon get away with another one?? Not one Dem in Congress??? srsly wtf?
None of them have the power to DO anything. Because they're still following the rules. And when it comes to illegal methods, he has all of that in his pocket, AND immunity from the law according to the Supreme Court. He can do anything he wants.
Yea, idk what the fuck they expect. Dem: "We propose a bill to.." GOP: "denied. You don't have enough people." Americans: "wtf Dems?! This is all your fault! Maybe we should let MORE Republicans win! That'll teach you!"
Literally, the only thing they can do is performative shit that people complain doesn't accomplish anything. Booker does a sit in? That's not stopping trump. Bernie does rallies? That's not stopping trump (but he gets a pass bc he's Bernie)
I dunno, man. I feel like Dems should be disrupting every single action in Congress while pointing out the blatant treason and bullshit. Make noise. Be loud. Hammer in the facts at every goddamn turn. Do SOMETHING. Anything. At this point, they are forcing us, the constituents, the people, to violently revolt, since peaceful protest ain't doing shit.
They have been... but guess what? Media's corrupt too, ain't showing anything they're doing. Dems aren't the ones taking away our rights and pushing us towards a violent revolt to get them back. It's literally to the point the only thing more they can do is BE violent... I mean they're already getting arrested left and right lately.

Funny thing is that the Saudi's HATE Qatar. How is Trump going to square this with MBS? Better not visit the Saudi consulate in Istanbul, I suppose
Banhammer72
I would say, in part it's a ploy to get the Saudi's to cough up some more money on Trump Coin to prove themselves better than the Qatari to tRump.

He openly gives up secrets, I'm not sure this is even a concern. Sometimes you gotta think.

At least it won't have the defensive measures that AF1 has.

Maybe we'll get lucky and all the 'listening' devices have a secondary detonation function.

as many have often said bugs are useless when he doesnt shutup anyway.

They could just flat out ask him shit. He'd spill on anything and everything. "Sir, I'm a big fan of yours. You're the greatest president in the history of presidents. So...What are the nuclear launch codes?"

There are nobody that counts that aren't part of the Trump regime. Democrats are outnumbered because people voted to be repressed for some reason.

Congress is controlled by Republicans, stop blaming Democrats for what the Republicans are doing/not doing.
MCNewYorkLives
Yea, idk what the fuck they expect.
Dem: "We propose a bill to.."
GOP: "denied. You don't have enough people."
Americans: "wtf Dems?! This is all your fault! Maybe we should let MORE Republicans win! That'll teach you!"
Literally, the only thing they can do is performative shit that people complain doesn't accomplish anything. Booker does a sit in? That's not stopping trump. Bernie does rallies? That's not stopping trump (but he gets a pass bc he's Bernie)
Zeterai
"Why didn't the Democrats convince me not to vote against my own interests? I'm definitely voting Republican now, just to teach them a lesson."
Catodactyl
I dunno, man. I feel like Dems should be disrupting every single action in Congress while pointing out the blatant treason and bullshit. Make noise. Be loud. Hammer in the facts at every goddamn turn. Do SOMETHING. Anything. At this point, they are forcing us, the constituents, the people, to violently revolt, since peaceful protest ain't doing shit.
MCNewYorkLives
Yup, they are forcing us to revolt by having the audacity to not have more people voted in! I mean, who the hell do they think they are?! /S

And the R's go "HA ha, the Libs are TRIGGERED!" And that's the end of it.
