2 of the 6 Marine One helicopters will be used from West Palm Beach airport to President Trump's Mar-A-Lago estate instead of the motorcades
A helipad for Marine One is complete on the Mar-A-Lago estate. Secret Service have security concerns when publicized Air Force One arrives.
Great picture! I suspect the drivers in West Palm Beach will be happy not to have the traffic jams with the motorcades, and it may actually be less expensive to use Marine 1 instead of many cars, USSS and police, etc. required for a motorcade. Supporters may be sadden as some like to be out waving signs (though I think protesters do, too - too bad for them).
Eric Trump and Newt coming up on Maria on FNC here now.
I wonder if Melania persuaded POTUS not to do the motorcade. With all the recent security breaches, she couldn’t have been too happy about him getting out of the vehicle to wave to the crowd, not to mention inviting a few supporters inside Mar-a-Lago.
