Over the past several months, Donald J. Trump has crisscrossed the country making dozens of campaign stops in places like Sioux City, Iowa, and Jackson, Miss., often in his sleek Cessna jet. There is just one hitch: The plane’s registration is expired.
Records kept with the Federal Aviation Administration show the aircraft’s registration lapsed on Jan. 31. Laura J. Brown, a spokeswoman for the Federal Aviation Administration, confirmed that the plane’s registration was not in good standing and said the owner had not renewed it.

It's a bullshit story from a bullshit media outlet, and it turns on the bullshit Cruz Cultists like a bell starts the dogs drooling in classic Pavlovian fashion.

Since when is a Cessna jet a regular on the Trump campaign trail. At all the rallies I have seen, he is using a Boeing 757.

I am not a Trump supporter, but the FAA records are often slow to update.

Only one of five aircraft had an expired five dollar registration. It is his 8 seat Cessna.

The hidden story here is that the aircraft is owned by the "DJT Operations Corp" which is a Delaware corporation.
Direct connection to the money laundering, tax evading Panama incorporation scandal.
Game, set, match...
I'm gonna have to vote for Kasich now.

Knowing Trump’s pilot and his meticulous attention to detail, I find this hard to believe.

I’m thinking he uses the Cessna jet to land at the smaller airports.
To: Truth29
Exactly! Wrong plane. Only the idiots at the NYT would not be able to tell the difference between two plane so dramatically different in their size and appearance.
