Al claims he “doesn’t OWN a private jet”, but Trump’s allegation is the Al “flies around on private jets”.
So, AGore deliberately avoided responding to the allegation, and this avoidance fuels its credibility. In other words, it is now reasonable to believe AGore flies around on private jets because, when offered the opportunity to deny it, he avoided the issue.
There are private jet companies that offer time shares - you pay a percentage of the cost of the plane and a premium per month as well as $$ per flight hour.
If Al Gore is a guest on someone’s plane or has permission to use that plane then technically he doesn’t ‘own’ the jet.
Also, he may have a stake in a company that has a private jet so he wouldn’t ‘own’ that either..
In other words, I wonder if he is lying and tap dancing around the truth.
He thinks nothing of jaunting across the world in a private jet burning a dinosaur an hour.
