Yep! He had to try out his new bling AF-One. Flew a total of 131 miles which also requires the backup for AF-One to fly also.Think of the money used to pay for the fuel that was used. That money will be used to pay employees and vendors, who will subsequently spend some of the money, and so on....
Does anyone know why he had to fly anywhere? Maybe I missed that? Why didn’t he just make this speech from the WH press room or someplace there? I can’t understand why he flew 131 miles to make this speech.
