Did the Leftist’s wonder how many Migrants would have fit on the Plane?

Not too long ago they were on the internet begging for money from strangers because of their incredible millions of dollars of debt.

Its one thing if its their money, it another when they are celebrity beggars pleading with people to fund their massive debt unsustainable lifestyle.

“Shrug. It’s their money.”

Just damn, you beat my to an identical post I wanted to post.

That flight made a lot of jobs and helped the economy. I see no problem.

Personally I would have opted for a Gulf stream G650 and a Singapore Airline Hostess to serve just two. Mach .95 and a 7000 mile range is not shabby. It looks much sexier than a 747 and is faster. If you want bigger and almost as fast the old Convair 880 is the plane. You need an oil well to afford the fuel burn. The 880 would blow smoke out the engines and was loud. It was a beautiful and fast aircraft but economically not feasible. Little slim nacelles on its fuel guzzling turbines made it a very sexy looking aircraft.

Saddly none are in the air today.

Yes! Doing our part to prevent the next ice age. :)

That’s true. Obama went on one plane with his Czars and his minders, such as Samantha Power, Valerie Garrett and Austan Goolsbee.

Michelle went on another plan with her entourage of about 24 Ladies In Waiting. her mother, Grandma Robinson, her daughters, her secret service, her photographers, her Nurse Practioners, her Workout Partner, her dietitian, her masseur.

If Kanye did not support Trump, then this story would have never seen the light of day.

Bingo! You win the Internets prize!

I remember doing the math regarding my car’s carbon footprint (so-called) compared to the TAXPAYER FUNDED jaunt taken by BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA on a particular trip to Asia.

The worst occupant of the Oval office burned more carbon in TEN DAYS than I would in FIVE YEARS.

At least KK and KW were paying for the privilege.

These critics can shove it. And I am not a fan of these people. I abhor celebrity culture.

That was exactly my thought. They are not the first people to spend like fools. It seems like overkill...but it’s not my money.

As long as they don’t lecture us on global warming, sustainable energy or other such bullshit, I don’t care what they do.

Exactly.

...”It is envy.
Jealousy.
The ole green-eyed monster.
The have-nots cannot stand the fact that Kardashian/West are extravagant.”...

Indeed! Those who are criticizing would do the same in an instant if they had the money. Incidentally, doesn’t Al Gore who has made himself filthy rich through Climate Change propaganda, use one of those to travel? Kim and Kanye will not dance to the leftist tune. That is another reason the Revolutionaries are criticizing them. They will turn against anyone they can’t control and dictate to.

will the same mob be outraged when plenty of the gloBULL warming 30,000 expected to attend COP24 in Katowice, Poland, next week arrive in their private jets?

a fun fact:

28 Nov: AFP: Poland names coal companies partners for COP24 climate talks
Poland on Tuesday named the EU’s largest producer of high-quality coking coal among several coal-sector companies that it chose to partner with the UN’s COP 24 global climate summit opening this weekend in the southern coal city of Katowice.

Polish Environment minister Henryk Kowalczyk told reporters in Warsaw that the state-owned JWS company along with coal-based energy companies PGE and Tauron were chosen as partners for the global talks aimed at reducing global warming through cutting greenhouse gas emissions.
Poland’s PZU insurance giant, its PKO BP bank and the PGNiG natural gas company are also sponsors. All six companies are state-owned...

Relying primarily on coal for some 80 percent of its energy...

yes, as long as they pay for it it’s not anybody’s beeswax.
