Trump asking supporters to fund new plane after emergency landing
By Sarakshi Rai - 03/10/22 10:27 AM EST


Former President Trump is asking his supporters to help fund his new "Trump Force One" private plane just days after a jet flying him to Mar-a-Lago made an emergency landing when one of its engines failed.

Trump, through his Save America PAC, sent his supporters an email titled "Update Trump Force One" in which he said that "my team is building a BRAND NEW Trump Force One."

He added that the construction of this plane has been under wraps and said "I can't wait to unveil it for everyone to see."

   
The fundraising email said he had "a very important update on his plane" and asked potential donors if they remember how the former president used to travel across the U.S. in his own "Trump Force One" before he became "the greatest President of all time."

The email included a GIF of a plane taking off with a poll giving donors "yes" or "no" options if they wanted to see his new plane.

The poll links to a donation page that asks supporters to "Contribute ANY AMOUNT IMMEDIATELY to send your response to President Trump!"
 
The former president was traveling back to his Mar-a-Lago residence in Palm Beach, Fla., from the Four Seasons Hotel in New Orleans in a private jet when the pilot decided to turn around and return to the airport after an engine failed. The news was first reported by Politico and The Washington Post.
 
The jet, a Dassault Falcon 900, was given to Trump by a donor for the evening to travel back from the Republican National Committee retreat in New Orleans to his home in Florida.
 
Trump's personal Boeing 757 was a staple during his 2016 presidential campaign.
 
Last year, it was reported that his Boeing 757 was sitting unused at an Orange County, N.Y., airport unable to be flown.
 
The full-size passenger airliner, which bears Trump's name across the side in large block letters, has fallen into disrepair. One engine is shrink-wrapped and the other is missing parts, according to CNN.

Does Trump realize how tone deaf it is for a billionaire to ask people struggling to put food on the table and gas in their cars to help him buy a new jet?
President Trump you have just stepped into the Biden zone.

Sure...I have a extra grand in my pocket to donate.

I find this hard to believe ... if true things aren't looking to good for his re-election.

Joy!

@GtHawk

People are now paying 4 to 5 dollars a gallon to fill their cars or trucks.

That is one of the problems with being a multi-millionaire/billionaire. You lose touch with the reality to drives the lives of the typical working-class American.

To people in his position,the extra 3 or 4 dollars a gallon are just meaningless numbers. To the typical worker,that extra 3 or 4 dollars per gallon means he is going to have to cut out some otherwise essential expense of his daily life. Maybe it is a "small thing" like taking his family out for dinner and a movie on a weekend night,but that "small thing" is actually a big part of their family life and family bonding. It ain't just a few dollars,it is a change in their lives.

President Trump you have just stepped into the Biden zone.

I was skeptical at first but there are a lot of News agencies reporting it

Fox, NYDaily News, Washington Examiner, Yahoo to name just a few... :shrug:
