any idea how long it took to prep one that was flyable let alone one which hasn’t been operational in decades?

these were not Chevy’s that you just gas up turn the key and drive.

No, but if we did it would take months to restore and there are probably no active-duty pilots left that are certified for that aircraft. Plus it uses special fuel and specialized maintenance people who are no longer around. Not going to happen. An F-15 could get him back in a reasonable amount of time but the press would howl about Trump misusing Air Force assets.
