Remember when Trump told the press pool “I go, you go” regarding Air Force One security threats?
Turns out he meant: “I go hide in a catering truck, and you go act as missile bait.”

Look, hiding POTUS from a legit assassination attempt? Standard protocol.
Leaving your flight crew, staff, and press pool to play unwitting human shields while you escape in a food cart? Absolutely psychotic behavior.
Fast forward:
Trump lands in Britain, secretly sneaks BACK onto the legacy AF1, walks out for the cameras like a hero, and hops on his Qatari-gifted jet back to DC.
Meanwhile, back on the decoy AF1:
The press, staff, and crew are told to close their window shades, totally oblivious that POTUS pulled a fast one.
They fly out under the “AF1” callsign — acting as a giant, painted bullseye for a potential Iranian threat.
The timeline of this madness:
1. Trump waves for cameras on Air Force One in Turkey.
2. Secretly exits out the back into a raised catering truck.
3. Gets shuttled to a smaller C-32A with Pete Hegseth, flying dark under the callsign “Reach 18.”
