Nope, normal people who are appalled by Trump's behavior and won't be fooled again by Trump's BS. Your messiah is gone by 2020 if he's not impeached before then.

I'm late on this but does Trump own this plane? I don't think so. Those airplanes belong to the people. If anything, the people allowed the McCain family to transport his (McCain's) body.

As others have said, "Air Force One" and "Air Force Two" are call signs assigned to any Air Force aircraft that the POTUS and VP happen to be flying in. They are not the aircraft themselves.
You kill me. Carry on Shipmate..... Trump won the election, Hillary lost, and Trump gave the damn plane to the Mcain family as the Commander IN Chief/Potus...
Like talking to drunks...

He deserves all the scorn he gets.
So, he should lie, like the rest, and say they respect someone they don't? That's what you want, and good liar?

Plenty of people don't have respect for McCain and he earned both disrespect and respect depending on which way he was bending for his career at the time. Just like any other politician.

Trump has no obligation to like anyone, nor do his supporters require he lies with a straight happy face on like Hilary or Barack when it comes to another politician.

Barack at McCains funeral (pretending he didn't vote NO to MLK day for Arizona.) It's all good!

Snopes response covers this quite well I think. Despite what those on the right think, Snopes is a perfectly good source for things like this.

I feel you are confusing lying versus diplomacy.

No, I feel some are confusing diplomacy with lying.


For example, Trump showed diplomacy dealing with Russia and North Korea managing to keep his cool while managing international relations. While McCain publically stated we should wipe NK off the face of the map.


Trump and McCain's fighting doesn't require diplomacy. They didn't like each other. So what.

No different saying you don't consider McCain a hero as McCain saying he thought Trump supporters were "crazies" including the parents of the kid murdered by illegals. Neither had much respect nor did either treat the other one with tact.
Or Hilary saying Trump supporters were "diplorables." No tact there. They attacked each other and the Americans that supported them.

Example of lying ^ cough didn't know anything about it, cough.

They all do it, and it's just lying, and fighting and not one of them aren't guilty of it. Trumps is just magnified because he called out the media. You don't want to make the media your enemy. lol

Arrogance? You can't be serious.

This is from January 2018

President Trump's travel costs now total over $13 million, right-leaning Judicial Watch reports
  • Report by Judicial Watch shows President Donald Trump's travel costs since June totaled $3,199,188.30.
  • In total, Judicial Watch calculates his travel costs to be $13,533,937.28.
