Trump asking supporters to fund new plane after emergency landing
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.
It's pretty shitty that a Billionaire doesn't have the cash to fix his own plane and has taken to begging his supporters.

He doesn't even have a ride to/from his own events.

I'd like to see the prick have a"emergency landing" in the middle of the Atlantic in the dead of winter, He has given the greatest gift concerning 2024 when he said "Putin is savvy" at the beg. of Ukraine war,that quote is THE end for his chances.

We’ll see. It won’t hurt him with his base.
^^This 100%
His comment that he could shoot someone and not lose any voters back in 2016 has proven to be one of his most truthful comments ever. Sad!
SMH.
We will see how it plays out though, most of the house and the senate on both sides of the aisle seem to have finally remembered that Russia, and specifically Putin, is not our best buddy.

i think this is what will split the republican party, trump and the 15 republicans that voted against helping Ukraine will break away from the "normal" republicans, taking a good many of the most deplorable of the deplorables with them, and maybe a few more rinos.
it's going to be a very tight race, both in 2022 and 24....the gqp can't afford to lose 25-30% of their base to a break away group...if that happens, especially if it starts this year, they will be fucked...even if by some miracle desantis (or which ever piece of shit rises to the top of the septic tank) or, god help the world, trump, wins again, they'll lose the house and the senate, and will have to fight to get enough money to buy toilet paper for the whitehouse...we'll teach them what "obstructionist" actually entails

So how much money do you think he had stashed away in Russia?
i honestly have no idea...it's been said, more than once, that putin may be the richest man in the world. but money stashed away in russia is likely to stay there for the immediate future, not many people are willing to take blood money from this particular dictator. it seems like china and india are the only countries in the world willing to have anything to do with him, and india doesn't have a lot to offer...
they may continue to do business with russia, but russia will only have them to buy or sell anything to, and that will be incredibly complicated to pay for...it may end up involving sending tankers home full of gold or other valuables, because rubles are less valuable than toilet paper now

I don't understand why he just doesn't steal it from his PAC? He could easily call every trip a campaign event for the GOP. He's already taking it by holding his fundraisers at his properties. Nobody gets in for free.

Oh, wait a minute, then he'd be spending what he calls "his money", he needs a bonus allowance so as not to spend "his money".

PS - Trump fans, it can't be just an ordinary jet. It has to be a jumbo jet with TRUMP emblazoned "like nobody's ever seen before" and with gold toilets, large ones. You can donate online.

Our system currently protects money-launders. We can change that with digital currencly.

As far as I understand over 90% of crypto is being mined by less than 5% of the userbase. So it is still open to a lot of manipulation and abuse.
Can you reccomend any literature/books on the topic? I don't know anymore about it than the little snippets that I've read.
