Trump reportedly wants Air Force One to be more patriotic

President reportedly requesting a more patriotic paint-job on the Boeing 747s along with bigger, more comfortable beds.

President Trump is reportedly hoping to make the high skies great again with a new and improved patriotic paint job for Air Force One that “looks more American,” in addition to requesting bigger, more comfortable beds on board.

Axios reported this week that POTUS has a few specific wishes for the pair of Boeing 747s that are currently in the works to replace the presidential jets in use now. Citing an unnamed source, the outlet recalls that Trump personally negotiated the $4 billion dollar deal in the Oval Office with Boeing CEO Dennis Muilenburg in February for the new planes.

Dunno. I'm not thrilled with any changes which Might make those planes easier to identify no matter how slight.

We have a whole slew of enemies out there. Attacking AF1 should be as difficult for them as possible.

It's the most recognizable airplane in the entire freaking world with it just the way it is.

Don't mess with a good thing.
