GOOD TRUMP: President Lends Air Force Two To McCain Family To Bring Body Of Senator To D.C.

Thanks for the gentle reminder that it's not HIS plane, it's ours.  At most Trump said" yeah fine, let 'em use it".  People act like he did some magnanimous thing out of the goodness of his heart and wallet.  Horsefeathers!

Good point, as usual.  Trump could have said, "Eff 'im!  Let 'em take a Greyhound."  McCain would have done something like that if he was President and hated Trump.

Made Trump the better man (which, when I stop to think about it, isn't saying much  )

Yes he did!  He could have said..NO!   Save our money. Shezzzzzzzz.    Never given any CREDIT!

Since you want to piss on McCain’s grave so badly, I thought you might be unhappy with Trump’s offer 

“Correct!  Is this fiasco over yet?  The traitor needs to be p!ssed on, not respected. Most military in his time in Vietnam, said those things. They said his arms got broken, when he crashed. The story about abuse are fake.  People need to learn some real truth from our HERO's who were there, NOT LEFT, LYING MEDIA nor his lying family.” -LegalAmerican

Can't help you on that. I haven't seen this/there "Office".

It’s on Netflix. If you have that it’s worth a binge watch. That is how I saw it. Last winter during a snow storm (blizzard)

So Meghan McCain told Trump where he could shove Air Force 2, and instead
shipped John's body by Federal Express or was it Amtrak?

THIS is what being Presidential looks like.

Since none of us was in the room when Trump issued the order, it's probably horsefeathers to make up a quote or presume to know what he was thinking. Regardless of his motive or what he said at the time, permitting the use of the plane showed more dignity than was evident throughout the funeral-a-thon.

@mountaineer

make up a quote

- That's cute!

Look, was it a class move by someone in the White House, maybe even Trump himself?  Yes. But just like it's disingenous for the press to bust him for playing golf during a funeral he was so publicly dis-invited to, so it is also disingenous to ascribe great caring and class to allowing clan McCain to use our plane and our fuel and our resources. 

A truely class move would have been to send and personally pay for a plane that had TRUMP on the side of it, right?

That would have been hilarious, actually, just to see how horrified Meghan, et al., would have been by the gesture.

That, too would have been seen as petty and "in your face."  Offering to allow the use of a USAF asset was just the right touch, and displayed more class and compassion that the entire McCain clan, and their followers.

Tic wink noted....nah, that action would have been met with accusations that Trump was extending a symbolic finger to his former foe, McCain and the pressholes would have had a field day bashing him over it.  Come to think of it, it would have been funny as hell.   

Reality = Trump can't win, no matter what he does.

Some of that he brings on himself.

Some, yes.  Most, no.   Most of it is the rabid left doing what they always do (remember the 8 years of "Bush's fault"?).

Unfortunately, Trump is the first one to feed their rabid condition with childish tweets and pre-adolescent behavior.

(btw, this thread is about one of the rare grown-up things he's done, and I applaud his doing this).

I think he likes the attention it provides his ego.   I think growing up he did the same thing.... acted up to get attention from his poor, weary parents... who finally shipped him off so someone ELSE could give him 24/7 attention...lol.

Agree 100% on both parts of what you said.

Word has it that he got sent away to military school because he accosted his elementary music teacher.

And he clearly hasn't changed much since.

They said Trump didn't lend them Air Force One out of spite.   So the McCain's had to ride in the rickety and broken down 3rd back up plane reserved for reporters from CNN and Vox and the rest of the press pool.

They said it smelled of stale beer, cigarettes  and liberal tears.

I hope you were being either ironic or sarcastic. Any winged aircraft the President flies on is officially designated as "Air Force one."

The C-32 used as Air Force 2 is eight years newer than the VC-25A used as Air Force 1.

Now the criticism is down to which Airplane was used?   Dear Lord, save our country. Amen.

I agree. It is a shame that NO MATTER what my great president does, he gets criticized for it.  Hell if he does, hell if he doesn't.  I think that speaks to the insanity of the people doing that criticizing. As if, it makes them "smart" doing that.
How about we are, ALL AMERICANS and support our duly elected president?  What a concept.  The people have been led to criticize him & mock. ONLY SHEEP DO THAT. I prefer to be a patriot & support my president & America, or else we WON'T HAVE AN AMERICA ANYMORE!  I lived socialism. We were starving, the sheep continue to bad mouth MY PRESIDENT!
      SMH.
