This is one stupid thing to do. I wonder if this gift is going to get fitted with all that fancy electronic gear like AF-1 has? And then who is going to maintain it? The foreign nation that donated it?
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.

I am sure I would struggle to say the name of the country as the native speakers do but I can pretty much bet that it isn't "cutter" as the newscaster said over and over again.
I am sure this breach of gifting to a sitting president will be overlooked. 'Cause laws don't apply to the orange one.
His pet Congress will approve it, making it all nice and legal. No ethics issues here, please return to your homes and places of business.

It supposedly is going to have gold everything and spiral staircases...which are very important aviation upgrades.
mmm.. gold everything... gold is heavier than lead, just what you need in an aircraft!

It's been said many times but Trump is a poor person's rich person.

It’s also been said that Trump is proof that you don’t have to be poor to be white trash.

Trump: 145% tariffs. Deal with that, bitches!
China: 125% tariffs. Deal with that.
Trump: Can we talk about this?
China: Sure. Drop your tariffs and we’ll talk.
Trump: *pouting* Umm…ok
Tariffs: *dropping like a paralyzed falcon*

That’s unfair. Awty is the kindest, sweetest person here. Just don’t piss her off. If you do, she’s gonna use that mom voice, and NOBODY wants that.
