Trump's airplane (Boeing 757?) just took off from New York City on the way to DC for this initial meeting on the transition. Here is a question, how is 'Trump One' treated by Air Traffic Control, by the US Military and the Secret Service (SS)? Has the SS changed or added to his pilots? Very interesting to think about how a change from a private citizen billionaire to USofA President Elect changes other things associated with Mr Trump!

That’s all fine. But the last meeting they have should end with Trump telling Obama, “Just have your ass out of the White House by 12:01 on January 20, or your stuff goes out to the curb.”

Trump should have scheduled the meeting at 7AM.

Good time to start serious business.

Barry would have to get up earlier than his usual crack-of-noon time.

While at the same time, Obama has unleashed his Brownshirt goons to protest Trump's victory and beat up Trump supporters and is planning a wave of last minute pardons and executive orders to intentionally screw up Trump's transition.

Also, remember how the Clinton team looted and vandalized the White House before Bush took over. Any bets on how much worse the Obama team is going leave the White House and executive offices for Trump?

Will the wives be there? I would love another photo of the first cow scowling at the soon-to-be first lady the way she scowled at the French president’s wife way back when.

I posted a suggested agenda yesterday:

- Eviction notice
- Transition
- Fumigation
- Obama to arrange for return of the Churchill bust
- Repair vandalism to WH grounds. (aka “garden”)
- Security Revie . (e.g. inventory the furniture, count silverware, etc)

This guy is Mr. Three Card Monte Dealer. Look over here, while I promise an easy transition, while I do my best to ensure your agenda is undermined while you are distracted. I hope Trump does not fall for any line of crap this world class con man tries to put forth.

“Trump should have scheduled the meeting at 7AM”

That would be considered late in the day to Trump.

Before any Trump Team member sets foot in our contaminated White House, Intelligence-trained staff loyal to President-elect Trump better go over every inch with their special equipment: behind the walls, ceilings, and floors, and test the air multiple times. #RememberScalia

once he’s president he will have to give up his airplane to fly airforce one. Feels like a downgrade
