Most do not realize that these “government aircraft” are military assets. They are part of the US Air Force's 89th Airlift Wing at Andrews Air Force Base, Maryland. Here's a link, https://www.jba.af.mil/About-Us/Fact-Sheets/Display/Article/336383/89th-airlift-wing/

The President, as Commander In Chief of the Armed Forces of the United States, controls these aircraft. Princess Pelosi seems to have forgotten this.

Of course, Pelosi could fly commercial, as is proper. But doing so makes it harder to disguise the expense of her boondoggles from the citizens who have to pay for it.

Hey, Trump just wanted to spare Nancy, his greatest 2020 campaign ASSet, the risk of possibly “...landing UNDER FIRE...” as Hillary did and possibly being hurt or, God forbid, KILLED!
Then there’s always the thing about “Payback’s a BITCH”, BITCH!

I’d let her have the plane as long as she’s let off half way through the trip. You know, like over the Atlantic.

In government, “honorable” has a completely different meaning! In reality it says, “my dear worthless POS enemy!” Same is true when they refer to each other as “the gentleman or, the gentlelady!”


You mean it’s like “Bless your heart” in Southern?

A curious thing about his signature: “Donald” seems to take up less space than “Trump”

she has bucket list. So far this term she has already been to Hawaii and Puerto Rico. Now she has to thank the troops for all the Christmas gifts they sent her.
