The "flying palace," as well as the military parade for his birthday, touched a nerve as the economy is faltering and prices are rising because of his tariffs. [Audio]
The new 747-800 from Boeing will most likely be built before this one can be fully de-bugged. In the meantime a LOT of sensitive information will be spilled to the Emirate.
Trump has no problem blowing millions on his birthday parade while cutting USAID and children's lunch programs. It's beyond me that any human being can support this. He and his cronies are pure evil.
FEMA was cut too. Now we have tornado damage from last night in red states like Missouri and Kentucky. 23 people were killed and millions are without power.
What do Progressives feel who didn't vote giving America to a dictator, twice have to say? Any regrets? I really would like an answer to that question. Its disingenuous to place 100% of the blame on Trump voters when we already proved Trump could be beat but then we didn't turn out in 2024 in as large a number in 2020. Our own fault. Also why would you expect a big turnout for the Dems in 2026 after bashing them at every opportunity. When will the praising of all Democratic candidates from Progressives start before the election so people will be motivated to vote for inferior Democrats even though they are barely tolerable to Progressives. Maybe one more GOP victory is needed to wake up the Dems and turn them all into Progressives. /s
Why is MAGA upset? This is what they voted for, an orange dictator. I doubt the outrage among them will last. Soon they will apologize for it, just like Trumps coup attack on the capital.
The plane and the parade are both ridiculously blatant Tinpot Dictator moves, the kind of thing you'd expect from Saddam Hussein or Kim Jong-Un. Problem is, he's not a full-on dictator JUST YET, so the optics are terrible.
The Qatari jet isn't much of a gift. It is a 13 year old jet that Qatar has been trying to unload since 2020. It is an expensive jet to maintain even though it has only a little over 1000 flight hours. Qatar had a similar jet that they gifted to Erdogan of Turkey. Another problem is that Speaker Johnson doesn't seem concerned by this gift or even believe that Congress needs to approve it. Doubtful it will have a vote in the House unless members from his own caucus force the issue.
Nothing surprises me anymore and little shocks me. Just the term “flying palace” alone is such a huge turn on as a narcissistic feed to a grand narc. That was all he needed to hear and “I want”, “I’ll have” and litter it with gaudy gold overlay just about everywhere. Jet off over the skies feeling temporarily good about himself until the high starts to fade away, then seek a new narcissistic feed. Rinse repeat, the dysfunctional hollow hole inside can never be filled.
You must’ve heard what the head of royalty said about Trump today in Arabia. I guess his narcissistic supply has been cut off from Saudi Arabia. He’ll be looking for it elsewhere like you said… start talking about Greenland or some other place He wants to conquer.
While I appreciate the sentiment, one has to learn when they are told NOT to put your hand on the stove again, no? Have a nice weekend my friend. Finally warmer and sunnier in the beautiful Finger Lakes.
You have to wonder who Trump is trying to “impress” with talks about Rolls Royces & Boeing flying “palaces” when we are fighting to save Medicaid, Medicare & our democracy.
Perhaps billboards showing a visual of a large Boeing in the sky with TRUMP emblazoned along it’s side and the words
“VOTE G.O.P FOR WIDER SKIES” or a Rolls Royce in a narrow street showing Trump in a chauffeur’s cap and 3 of his billionaire friends as passengers and the words “VOTE G.O.P. FOR WIDER ROADS”. To demonstrate the absurdity & callousness of this administration.
This jet is a disgrace. $1 billion and years to bring it up to speed. Ghastly.

He’s already spilling to them, Putin, and anyone else who can afford his rates.
And Hamas.

Gold....gold.....gold seems to cover everything trump has. The surprise is that he has not had himself coated with gold, instead of orange.
Regardless, though, he is still the nation's worst president ever.
Is he modeling himself after Goldfinger? He is surely the worst president ever. Spending our tax dollars while trying to cut taxes on billionaires.
This "Palace in the Sky" jet has been for sale for five years. No one bought it, it's a piece of junk that will cost money to repair and debug.

The one he is using now is good enough.
Hopefully!!
Corruption!! Abhorrent
