        He is very inefficient and with no trust in himself of being capable of making decisions easily, by orders of magnitudes, to cover the expense of using the presidential plane. So why is he the president if he has no intention on being more efficient than average passenger?

        Because he is a Big Mouth and one of his campagin promises was that he never use the Presidential plane, so no he have to do this kind of circus... Also hes very egocentric and love to be a victim on the news...

        Someone is testing him. They will be keenly watching if he opts for his presidential jet next time he flies.

        wait isnt that a huge security threat? also commercial planes have to be a nightmare to schedule for any president? 2 questions which are probably answered with the 2 main reasons for a nation's leader to take a private flight, it's definitely not a snobby thing to do..

        Finally a president that isn't shoving their privilege in everyone's face.

        I have no issues when politicians have to endure the same day-to-day life and all of its inconveniences as the people the represent have to face.

        The difference is that qhen you are ina presidential airplane stuck with bad weather, no one can talk and see you. Be in a Prsidential plane doesn’t means it can fly in bad climate conditions. Please!

        Ha ha. Hopefully he's coming to the US to fill the plane with illegals and take them home with him.
