WEBVTT - DEVELOPING Overnight: Air Force One Forced To Turn Around 

0:00:11.880 --> 0:00:15.480
<v Speaker 1>Hey there, folks. It is Wednesday, January twenty first, and

0:00:15.600 --> 0:00:20.120
<v Speaker 1>a developing story while you were sleeping overnight. Air Force

0:00:20.440 --> 0:00:25.760
<v Speaker 1>one forced to turn around mid flight because of an

0:00:25.960 --> 0:00:28.720
<v Speaker 1>issue with the plane. And with that, welcome to this

0:00:28.760 --> 0:00:30.680
<v Speaker 1>episode of Amy and TJ.

0:00:31.120 --> 0:00:31.520
<v Speaker 2>Robes.

0:00:31.560 --> 0:00:34.360
<v Speaker 1>This happened late last night. I was up late enough

0:00:34.360 --> 0:00:36.959
<v Speaker 1>and saw it happening late. You had gone to bed

0:00:36.960 --> 0:00:39.640
<v Speaker 1>a little early. But it's scary anytime you hear that

0:00:39.680 --> 0:00:42.120
<v Speaker 1>there is an issue with any plane, the one carrying

0:00:42.120 --> 0:00:45.080
<v Speaker 1>the president certainly sets off some alarm belts.

0:00:45.200 --> 0:00:45.680
<v Speaker 2>That's right.

0:00:45.720 --> 0:00:48.240
<v Speaker 3>I mean you can say it was, oh, a minor

0:00:48.400 --> 0:00:51.680
<v Speaker 3>electrical issue, but I would feel like any electrical issue

0:00:52.159 --> 0:00:55.160
<v Speaker 3>you can call it minor, sounds pretty important to me

0:00:55.280 --> 0:00:57.920
<v Speaker 3>when it comes to flying a plane, and certainly flying

0:00:57.920 --> 0:01:00.000
<v Speaker 3>a plane with the President of the United States.

0:01:00.280 --> 0:01:01.680
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, tell, this was.

0:01:01.640 --> 0:01:04.840
<v Speaker 1>Not a This wasn't an I immediately, I mean it

0:01:04.880 --> 0:01:06.920
<v Speaker 1>took less than fifteen seconds when I saw this story

0:01:06.920 --> 0:01:09.039
<v Speaker 1>that I immediately thought about Harrison Ford in Air Force.

0:01:08.959 --> 0:01:10.560
<v Speaker 2>One, right, like, what's going on the plane?

0:01:10.640 --> 0:01:13.679
<v Speaker 1>There's an emergency. But so they didn't use the word emergency.

0:01:13.720 --> 0:01:16.000
<v Speaker 1>We should say that first and foremost. But yes, their

0:01:16.160 --> 0:01:20.440
<v Speaker 1>term in quotes is minor electrical issue with Air Force.

0:01:20.480 --> 0:01:22.200
<v Speaker 1>One will tell you in a lot of you all

0:01:22.240 --> 0:01:24.920
<v Speaker 1>know as we are recording this, actually the flight is

0:01:24.959 --> 0:01:27.039
<v Speaker 1>still in the air. The president is running a little behind.

0:01:27.080 --> 0:01:30.080
<v Speaker 1>He's supposed to be at the World Economic Forum in Dabbles, Switzerland.

0:01:30.120 --> 0:01:31.880
<v Speaker 1>That's where he was headed. But Robes he took off.

0:01:31.920 --> 0:01:34.720
<v Speaker 1>The flight took off at about nine to forty last night,

0:01:34.800 --> 0:01:37.000
<v Speaker 1>and it was back in the United States not too

0:01:37.000 --> 0:01:37.400
<v Speaker 1>long after.

0:01:37.560 --> 0:01:41.759
<v Speaker 3>Yes, the minor electrical issue happened thirty to forty five

0:01:41.800 --> 0:01:43.399
<v Speaker 3>minutes into the flight.

0:01:43.959 --> 0:01:46.360
<v Speaker 2>Reporters said that the lights flashed off.

0:01:46.440 --> 0:01:48.800
<v Speaker 3>That's got to be a scary moment at any point

0:01:48.840 --> 0:01:50.840
<v Speaker 3>when you're on a plane, and so they said the

0:01:50.880 --> 0:01:54.240
<v Speaker 3>decision was made out of an abundance of caution to

0:01:54.440 --> 0:01:57.920
<v Speaker 3>turn the plane around. They landed in Maryland, I believe

0:01:58.440 --> 0:02:01.840
<v Speaker 3>at eleven and think about that. Then they had to

0:02:02.040 --> 0:02:05.320
<v Speaker 3>switch planes, actually get on a smaller plane that's typically

0:02:05.400 --> 0:02:07.960
<v Speaker 3>used for domestic flights. But this is a seven and

0:02:08.000 --> 0:02:11.800
<v Speaker 3>a half hour flight, so it looks like they took

0:02:11.919 --> 0:02:15.880
<v Speaker 3>back off around midnight. That would put him in Davos

0:02:15.880 --> 0:02:21.320
<v Speaker 3>around seven thirty am Eastern time. But wasn't he supposed

0:02:21.320 --> 0:02:23.440
<v Speaker 3>to give a speech at eight thirty am Eastern time.

0:02:23.480 --> 0:02:25.720
<v Speaker 1>I mean, it's possible he could shower on the plane,

0:02:26.040 --> 0:02:28.920
<v Speaker 1>be fresh, walk right off and head to where he's going.

0:02:30.080 --> 0:02:32.000
<v Speaker 1>But it's possible that's not the case. So as we

0:02:32.120 --> 0:02:35.960
<v Speaker 1>are recording this, folks, there is uncertainy about exactly how

0:02:35.960 --> 0:02:38.320
<v Speaker 1>the schedule is going to go for a speech today

0:02:38.320 --> 0:02:42.240
<v Speaker 1>that is a really really really big deal for what

0:02:42.360 --> 0:02:44.359
<v Speaker 1>is going on in the world, what he's expected to say,

0:02:44.360 --> 0:02:46.639
<v Speaker 1>and also ropes who his audience is exactly.

0:02:46.720 --> 0:02:48.600
<v Speaker 3>Look, any one of us know what it's like to

0:02:48.600 --> 0:02:51.360
<v Speaker 3>be three hours late when you thought you were going

0:02:51.400 --> 0:02:54.200
<v Speaker 3>to rie versus when you actually arrived. But were any

0:02:54.240 --> 0:02:56.920
<v Speaker 3>of us going to give a speech, be delivering a

0:02:57.000 --> 0:03:01.639
<v Speaker 3>speech of this significance with the world watching? And frankly,

0:03:01.720 --> 0:03:06.519
<v Speaker 3>we saw him yesterday touting his accomplishments, celebrating his years

0:03:06.680 --> 0:03:11.560
<v Speaker 3>since he was inaugurated. He looked tired at noon yesterday,

0:03:12.040 --> 0:03:15.000
<v Speaker 3>and he was talking and working obviously up until the

0:03:15.040 --> 0:03:16.640
<v Speaker 3>moment he got on that plane. And so to have

0:03:16.720 --> 0:03:20.720
<v Speaker 3>this disruption and to have what's at stake happening today,

0:03:21.440 --> 0:03:22.560
<v Speaker 3>that's a tall order.

0:03:22.720 --> 0:03:25.440
<v Speaker 1>Or is he like the rest of us, the only

0:03:25.480 --> 0:03:27.919
<v Speaker 1>time you really get good rest is win your own plane,

0:03:28.320 --> 0:03:31.200
<v Speaker 1>because well he has a little different But I like

0:03:31.320 --> 0:03:33.639
<v Speaker 1>to of us like what.

0:03:33.560 --> 0:03:34.920
<v Speaker 2>I sleep terribly on planes?

0:03:35.000 --> 0:03:35.480
<v Speaker 3>Well, no, the.

0:03:35.480 --> 0:03:37.280
<v Speaker 1>Idea that you're away from the world a little bit.

0:03:37.400 --> 0:03:40.720
<v Speaker 1>Nobody's coming by his office constantly, where there's some limits.

0:03:40.760 --> 0:03:43.040
<v Speaker 1>At least, maybe he gets great sleep. Maybe he'll step

0:03:43.040 --> 0:03:44.760
<v Speaker 1>off that plane fresh as a daisy and ready to

0:03:44.760 --> 0:03:47.120
<v Speaker 1>give the best speech. Maybe he has an awakening and

0:03:47.160 --> 0:03:50.320
<v Speaker 1>it's changing his speech. Who knows what this does, but yes,

0:03:50.400 --> 0:03:52.960
<v Speaker 1>he is three hours behind schedule as we speak. So

0:03:53.000 --> 0:03:54.920
<v Speaker 1>we'll keep an eye on and see exactly what's going

0:03:54.960 --> 0:03:59.320
<v Speaker 1>on in dabbles for this all important speech. The plane itself. Now,

0:03:59.320 --> 0:04:01.960
<v Speaker 1>a lot of reports last night robes I was watching,

0:04:02.000 --> 0:04:03.760
<v Speaker 1>and we have known. We've never been a part of

0:04:03.760 --> 0:04:06.320
<v Speaker 1>a White House press corps, but they do this. They're

0:04:06.360 --> 0:04:08.360
<v Speaker 1>on these planes all the time. They know how this works.

0:04:08.560 --> 0:04:10.720
<v Speaker 1>A lot of them came out immediately that yeah, this

0:04:10.840 --> 0:04:15.360
<v Speaker 1>happens all the time. These really are old, old planes,

0:04:15.800 --> 0:04:19.760
<v Speaker 1>and we regularly have some kind of mechanical issue, a

0:04:19.920 --> 0:04:24.200
<v Speaker 1>technical this have to switch planes before these planes are

0:04:24.320 --> 0:04:25.679
<v Speaker 1>forty years old.

0:04:25.760 --> 0:04:28.840
<v Speaker 3>That seems surreal when you think about, first of all,

0:04:28.880 --> 0:04:32.159
<v Speaker 3>how often they're used, how important the people are who

0:04:32.200 --> 0:04:35.279
<v Speaker 3>they are carrying, and the fact that we wouldn't have

0:04:35.960 --> 0:04:41.080
<v Speaker 3>newer planes for air Force one is kind of mind blowing.

0:04:42.960 --> 0:04:45.560
<v Speaker 1>I heard a politician explain it this way, like, we

0:04:45.680 --> 0:04:49.880
<v Speaker 1>need them. But what president wants to submit a budget

0:04:49.920 --> 0:04:53.240
<v Speaker 1>request that says, hey, I want a new plane. It's

0:04:53.279 --> 0:04:55.960
<v Speaker 1>going to cost this many hundreds of millions of dollars.

0:04:56.080 --> 0:04:58.400
<v Speaker 1>And what is the other side of the aisle going

0:04:58.480 --> 0:05:01.760
<v Speaker 1>to immediately do at him? You're suffering at home, you

0:05:01.839 --> 0:05:04.000
<v Speaker 1>can't afford this, but the president wants a fancy new

0:05:04.040 --> 0:05:06.320
<v Speaker 1>plane to fly around it. They actually say that's a

0:05:06.400 --> 0:05:09.200
<v Speaker 1>part of the calculus here, and that nobody wants to

0:05:09.240 --> 0:05:10.000
<v Speaker 1>ask for a new one.

0:05:10.040 --> 0:05:11.840
<v Speaker 2>That makes a lot of sense. It also makes a

0:05:11.839 --> 0:05:14.359
<v Speaker 2>lot of sense why Trump is the person who.

0:05:14.240 --> 0:05:18.320
<v Speaker 3>Absolutely would do that give zero ss doesn't care. And

0:05:18.360 --> 0:05:21.640
<v Speaker 3>you also think maybe perhaps a president on his second term,

0:05:21.760 --> 0:05:25.119
<v Speaker 3>any president in his second term might be bold enough

0:05:25.240 --> 0:05:28.200
<v Speaker 3>or wouldn't care as much about asking for that. And

0:05:28.279 --> 0:05:31.560
<v Speaker 3>it is actually when you look at an incident like

0:05:31.640 --> 0:05:34.359
<v Speaker 3>last night, and there are several other to others to

0:05:34.400 --> 0:05:37.560
<v Speaker 3>talk about, it makes sense. Like a lot of times

0:05:37.600 --> 0:05:41.599
<v Speaker 3>when we're asked to have American taxpayers pay for something

0:05:41.760 --> 0:05:42.799
<v Speaker 3>that seems ridiculous.

0:05:42.920 --> 0:05:45.280
<v Speaker 2>This doesn't seem that ridiculous.

0:05:45.279 --> 0:05:48.719
<v Speaker 1>It's necessary. Yeah, he should have the nicest car, whatever

0:05:48.800 --> 0:05:50.720
<v Speaker 1>you want to put on it, the best security. That's

0:05:50.720 --> 0:05:52.280
<v Speaker 1>not I'm not going to argue with you exactly on

0:05:52.279 --> 0:05:54.000
<v Speaker 1>any of those points. Now, the ballroom.

0:05:54.640 --> 0:05:57.280
<v Speaker 2>No, but seriously, that's a really good point.

0:05:57.200 --> 0:06:01.120
<v Speaker 1>That bring up the ballroom. But no, this needs to

0:06:01.160 --> 0:06:03.440
<v Speaker 1>be taken care of. He has two planes, they say,

0:06:03.520 --> 0:06:06.120
<v Speaker 1>robes that serve as air Force one. Mind you, if

0:06:06.160 --> 0:06:10.120
<v Speaker 1>the President goes to Atlanta Hartsville Jackson Airport today and

0:06:10.160 --> 0:06:12.880
<v Speaker 1>gets on a Delta flight in first class, that plane

0:06:12.880 --> 0:06:16.000
<v Speaker 1>becomes air Force one. Whatever plane is carrying the president

0:06:16.080 --> 0:06:18.920
<v Speaker 1>does become air Force one. But they use two in

0:06:19.000 --> 0:06:22.119
<v Speaker 1>particular as air Force one. These are custom made Boeing

0:06:22.160 --> 0:06:25.160
<v Speaker 1>seven forty sevens. You can only imagine robes. How these

0:06:25.160 --> 0:06:26.360
<v Speaker 1>things have to be retrofitted.

0:06:26.720 --> 0:06:29.240
<v Speaker 3>What you have to do to security, I can't even

0:06:29.279 --> 0:06:32.520
<v Speaker 3>get my head around it. What has to be installed

0:06:33.000 --> 0:06:36.760
<v Speaker 3>on that plane and outfitted to serve as air Force

0:06:36.839 --> 0:06:39.240
<v Speaker 3>one has to be astronomical. And we've heard about how

0:06:39.279 --> 0:06:43.679
<v Speaker 3>long it takes. And President Trump has expressed frustration about

0:06:43.680 --> 0:06:47.800
<v Speaker 3>how long it takes to make a plane ready to

0:06:47.920 --> 0:06:48.760
<v Speaker 3>be Air Force one.

0:06:48.960 --> 0:06:52.480
<v Speaker 1>And you mentioned the I mean the security features, the

0:06:52.920 --> 0:06:55.320
<v Speaker 1>tech that has to go into it, the communications features,

0:06:55.320 --> 0:06:57.320
<v Speaker 1>but you also have to consider, Yeah, we have to

0:06:57.320 --> 0:07:01.440
<v Speaker 1>build a presidential suite onto this thing, to build the

0:07:01.480 --> 0:07:03.720
<v Speaker 1>cabin for the press a certain way, we have to

0:07:03.760 --> 0:07:06.120
<v Speaker 1>have this many bathrooms on those, so it's a it's

0:07:06.120 --> 0:07:08.400
<v Speaker 1>a a conference room that's in the damn thing. So

0:07:08.839 --> 0:07:13.880
<v Speaker 1>it takes a while. However, robes these planes were supposed

0:07:13.920 --> 0:07:17.520
<v Speaker 1>to be replaced two years ago, and now we're being

0:07:17.520 --> 0:07:20.680
<v Speaker 1>told it'll be another possibly two years before it gets replaced.

0:07:20.760 --> 0:07:25.200
<v Speaker 1>So it's been pushed back and back and delay after delay,

0:07:25.560 --> 0:07:29.240
<v Speaker 1>and you know what, God forbid. But something like this

0:07:29.360 --> 0:07:32.040
<v Speaker 1>is a warning. Can you imagine who is going to

0:07:32.080 --> 0:07:35.200
<v Speaker 1>take the blame if something happens with Airforce? No, obviously

0:07:35.240 --> 0:07:37.840
<v Speaker 1>they're going probably, but they got everything in place. But

0:07:37.840 --> 0:07:39.480
<v Speaker 1>how can I get mad at the Boeing's What are

0:07:39.480 --> 0:07:41.120
<v Speaker 1>they gonna say, we didn't tell y'all to use the

0:07:41.120 --> 0:07:42.119
<v Speaker 1>thing for sixty years?

0:07:42.360 --> 0:07:43.679
<v Speaker 2>Yeah that's true.

0:07:43.760 --> 0:07:47.320
<v Speaker 3>But it's funny because President Trump has recently thrown Boeing

0:07:47.360 --> 0:07:50.560
<v Speaker 3>under the bus multiple times, saying why is this taking

0:07:50.760 --> 0:07:54.480
<v Speaker 3>so long. Yeah, exactly where is my plane? Because it,

0:07:54.680 --> 0:07:56.480
<v Speaker 3>like you said, it was supposed to be here. Now

0:07:56.480 --> 0:07:59.200
<v Speaker 3>they're saying twenty I saw twenty twenty eight for both

0:07:59.200 --> 0:08:00.920
<v Speaker 3>of them. Now, you know how it is when you

0:08:00.960 --> 0:08:03.640
<v Speaker 3>have any sort of remodeling project or any sort of

0:08:03.760 --> 0:08:07.000
<v Speaker 3>estimation on construction, it's like, go ahead and double whatever

0:08:07.040 --> 0:08:09.480
<v Speaker 3>they tell you. The timeline's going to be. That, for

0:08:09.520 --> 0:08:12.240
<v Speaker 3>whatever reason, always seems to be the case. And apparently

0:08:12.600 --> 0:08:15.440
<v Speaker 3>it also is the case for air Force one or

0:08:15.480 --> 0:08:16.440
<v Speaker 3>outfitting planes.

0:08:17.080 --> 0:08:22.400
<v Speaker 1>Air Force one cost overruns, time delays. Anyone who's ever

0:08:22.480 --> 0:08:25.640
<v Speaker 1>done anything having to do with a contractor.

0:08:27.040 --> 0:08:28.960
<v Speaker 2>No, just getting them to show up half the time

0:08:29.080 --> 0:08:29.360
<v Speaker 2>is hard.

0:08:29.400 --> 0:08:31.120
<v Speaker 1>Going to have that, bro. So the planes we're talking

0:08:31.160 --> 0:08:35.319
<v Speaker 1>about now, the planes that Donald Trump is using, the

0:08:35.360 --> 0:08:38.440
<v Speaker 1>plane that had to turn around and bring him back

0:08:38.520 --> 0:08:43.320
<v Speaker 1>last night, is the same plane that carried George Herbert

0:08:43.520 --> 0:08:44.439
<v Speaker 1>Walker Bush.

0:08:44.559 --> 0:08:50.400
<v Speaker 3>That's insane crazy, Since nineteen ninety the same planes Herbert

0:08:50.559 --> 0:08:53.680
<v Speaker 3>walker Bush, George Herbert Walker Bush, all right, Clinton and

0:08:53.720 --> 0:08:56.839
<v Speaker 3>then George W. Bush and then President Obama and then

0:08:56.880 --> 0:09:00.440
<v Speaker 3>President Trump and then President Biden and now President Trump again.

0:09:00.520 --> 0:09:03.559
<v Speaker 3>That does seem like we are due for another Can

0:09:03.600 --> 0:09:06.160
<v Speaker 3>you imagine what Trump said. I mean, maybe he was

0:09:06.160 --> 0:09:08.800
<v Speaker 3>totally calm and cool as a cucumber, but you know

0:09:08.840 --> 0:09:11.440
<v Speaker 3>how frustrated you get late at night when your plane

0:09:11.440 --> 0:09:14.559
<v Speaker 3>gets delayed. And again, never had anything as important as

0:09:14.600 --> 0:09:16.960
<v Speaker 3>he has in terms of the world stage and Davos.

0:09:17.280 --> 0:09:20.480
<v Speaker 2>But like you gotta think he was probably.

0:09:20.200 --> 0:09:23.400
<v Speaker 3>A little peeved that almost an hour into his flight

0:09:23.559 --> 0:09:27.200
<v Speaker 3>he is to turn around, get off the plane, go

0:09:27.280 --> 0:09:28.280
<v Speaker 3>to another plane.

0:09:28.360 --> 0:09:30.520
<v Speaker 2>Donald Trump, do you think he has tolerance for that?

0:09:31.000 --> 0:09:33.560
<v Speaker 1>You know what I think, And you know what I

0:09:33.600 --> 0:09:36.120
<v Speaker 1>think he's figuring out how he can use this now

0:09:36.200 --> 0:09:38.800
<v Speaker 1>as an example to get what I want. See Tojoe,

0:09:39.200 --> 0:09:43.320
<v Speaker 1>we need new planes, boom, let me have them. Yeah,

0:09:43.440 --> 0:09:46.240
<v Speaker 1>so I think he will use this to his advantage.

0:09:46.280 --> 0:09:49.120
<v Speaker 1>And you know what the other thing about Davos, he's

0:09:49.120 --> 0:09:49.880
<v Speaker 1>probably thinking.

0:09:49.760 --> 0:09:54.079
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, no, wait, actually he'll take a rand entrance this way,

0:09:54.200 --> 0:09:56.200
<v Speaker 3>wait on me right, fashionably late.

0:09:57.080 --> 0:10:01.280
<v Speaker 1>Yes, but folks, stay here though. When we come back,

0:10:01.360 --> 0:10:06.160
<v Speaker 1>we'll explain why there might be a jet already waiting

0:10:06.280 --> 0:10:08.720
<v Speaker 1>in the wings to become the new Air Force one,

0:10:08.880 --> 0:10:12.199
<v Speaker 1>and why this isn't the first time and he isn't

0:10:12.240 --> 0:10:15.640
<v Speaker 1>the first president who's had to turn his plane around.

0:10:25.679 --> 0:10:28.319
<v Speaker 1>All right, we continue here on this early morning Amy

0:10:28.320 --> 0:10:30.800
<v Speaker 1>and TJ overnight stories that Air Force one had to

0:10:30.800 --> 0:10:34.040
<v Speaker 1>make a turnaround just thirty minutes or so into its flight.

0:10:34.240 --> 0:10:36.959
<v Speaker 1>President was heading to Dabbos, Switzerland for the World Economic Forum,

0:10:37.040 --> 0:10:40.280
<v Speaker 1>had a not a mechanical but an electrical issue is

0:10:40.320 --> 0:10:42.040
<v Speaker 1>what they called it, on the plane and they had

0:10:42.040 --> 0:10:44.520
<v Speaker 1>to turn around out of an abundance of caution. The

0:10:44.559 --> 0:10:46.960
<v Speaker 1>President's switched planes. He is on his way as of

0:10:47.000 --> 0:10:49.200
<v Speaker 1>this recording, were not exactly sure when he's going to

0:10:49.360 --> 0:10:51.120
<v Speaker 1>land and if he's going to have to push back

0:10:51.160 --> 0:10:53.640
<v Speaker 1>his eight thirty Eastern time speech he was supposed to make.

0:10:53.840 --> 0:10:56.040
<v Speaker 2>Yes, it's about a seven and a half hour flight.

0:10:56.760 --> 0:11:01.760
<v Speaker 3>The reports show that he finally took off at around midnight,

0:11:01.840 --> 0:11:04.760
<v Speaker 3>so that would put him landing in Davos just about

0:11:04.800 --> 0:11:05.920
<v Speaker 3>an hour before his speech.

0:11:05.960 --> 0:11:08.880
<v Speaker 2>That seems like a pretty tight turnaround.

0:11:08.920 --> 0:11:11.800
<v Speaker 3>But you know, if anyone can do it, he's got

0:11:11.840 --> 0:11:15.120
<v Speaker 3>probably a very effective presidential motorcade to get him where

0:11:15.160 --> 0:11:16.400
<v Speaker 3>he's going once he lands.

0:11:16.440 --> 0:11:18.400
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, that's the other thing. It never stops so

0:11:18.440 --> 0:11:21.760
<v Speaker 1>that some presidential travel, if any people may know this,

0:11:21.880 --> 0:11:24.720
<v Speaker 1>the president never stops moving when he's in a car.

0:11:25.200 --> 0:11:28.920
<v Speaker 1>He's not stuck in a red light ever. Okay, so yes, they.

0:11:28.840 --> 0:11:31.040
<v Speaker 3>Can get them there quick sailing to wherever this speech

0:11:31.400 --> 0:11:32.079
<v Speaker 3>is actually.

0:11:32.120 --> 0:11:34.079
<v Speaker 2>But it's funny this.

0:11:34.200 --> 0:11:37.559
<v Speaker 3>There was so much talk last year about air Force

0:11:37.600 --> 0:11:41.760
<v Speaker 3>one and a lot of controversy about where that new

0:11:41.800 --> 0:11:44.360
<v Speaker 3>plane or that next plane might come from. Because yes,

0:11:44.400 --> 0:11:47.520
<v Speaker 3>as we mentioned before the break, Boeing has been a

0:11:47.520 --> 0:11:52.080
<v Speaker 3>little delayed in bringing him his plane and his second plane.

0:11:52.080 --> 0:11:53.080
<v Speaker 2>Correct, two planes coming.

0:11:53.320 --> 0:11:56.520
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it's had place, I mean this was oh yeah,

0:11:56.559 --> 0:11:58.920
<v Speaker 1>here you go. The deal was put in place for

0:11:59.000 --> 0:12:02.079
<v Speaker 1>those planes when Obama was president. This is where we are.

0:12:02.679 --> 0:12:05.720
<v Speaker 3>Yes, I forgot about that is that is insane. I

0:12:05.800 --> 0:12:07.760
<v Speaker 3>understand a delay. I understand it takes some time, but

0:12:07.800 --> 0:12:08.760
<v Speaker 3>that's a lot of time.

0:12:08.760 --> 0:12:10.680
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I guess it takes time, right to build

0:12:10.720 --> 0:12:14.040
<v Speaker 1>a plane, and to build a presidential one. I assume

0:12:14.080 --> 0:12:16.800
<v Speaker 1>it takes we're up to fourteen years now, no, twelve

0:12:16.880 --> 0:12:19.199
<v Speaker 1>twelve years, that's when it was twenty fourteen. I think

0:12:19.200 --> 0:12:19.319
<v Speaker 1>it is.

0:12:19.440 --> 0:12:21.840
<v Speaker 2>How long did it take to build the World Trade Center?

0:12:22.120 --> 0:12:22.280
<v Speaker 1>Uh?

0:12:22.920 --> 0:12:25.640
<v Speaker 2>I don't know, but I feel like less time. How

0:12:25.720 --> 0:12:28.000
<v Speaker 2>long does it take to build a plane.

0:12:29.040 --> 0:12:31.640
<v Speaker 3>We should do a deeper die here, but yes, there

0:12:31.760 --> 0:12:35.800
<v Speaker 3>is a plane that was much talked about, a Katari Jet.

0:12:35.920 --> 0:12:36.280
<v Speaker 2>Correct.

0:12:36.440 --> 0:12:39.480
<v Speaker 3>We remember the gift that was given that was so

0:12:39.880 --> 0:12:42.600
<v Speaker 3>controversial that you said, I will take it. I will

0:12:42.640 --> 0:12:45.240
<v Speaker 3>take it. And it's funny. Actually, Carolyn Levitt, according to

0:12:45.280 --> 0:12:47.120
<v Speaker 3>reporters last night, as they had.

0:12:46.920 --> 0:12:49.640
<v Speaker 2>To turn around d plane get on.

0:12:49.600 --> 0:12:52.440
<v Speaker 3>A smaller plane, she joked aboard Air Force one that

0:12:52.440 --> 0:12:55.600
<v Speaker 3>that Katari jet sounded much better at the moment.

0:12:55.760 --> 0:12:58.160
<v Speaker 1>And that's fair, and it's a beauty. There are pictures

0:12:58.160 --> 0:13:01.040
<v Speaker 1>of it out there. There was a big controversy you mentioned.

0:13:01.679 --> 0:13:03.760
<v Speaker 1>Is it a gift? Can he accept it? He says

0:13:03.800 --> 0:13:06.679
<v Speaker 1>he wants to use it after he leaves the White

0:13:06.679 --> 0:13:09.560
<v Speaker 1>House for donated to his presidential library and use it

0:13:09.559 --> 0:13:11.040
<v Speaker 1>for his travel afterwards.

0:13:11.120 --> 0:13:13.120
<v Speaker 2>Sounds lovely, It sounds awesome.

0:13:13.600 --> 0:13:19.520
<v Speaker 1>Somebody gave me a plane. So that's still that plane

0:13:19.520 --> 0:13:21.920
<v Speaker 1>is sitting there, ready to go, but not ready to

0:13:21.960 --> 0:13:25.560
<v Speaker 1>go because it has to be updated with all of

0:13:25.600 --> 0:13:31.559
<v Speaker 1>this tech, all these communications, all of this anti missile equipment.

0:13:31.160 --> 0:13:33.960
<v Speaker 3>And defense make sure that there was nothing already on

0:13:34.080 --> 0:13:36.480
<v Speaker 3>the jet or inside the jet. A lot of people

0:13:36.480 --> 0:13:39.480
<v Speaker 3>pointed to that the royal family donated this jet to

0:13:39.640 --> 0:13:42.800
<v Speaker 3>the president and not to throw any shade on the

0:13:42.880 --> 0:13:45.880
<v Speaker 3>royal family of Cutter, but they have to make.

0:13:45.760 --> 0:13:48.600
<v Speaker 2>Sure that it's doesn't have any spyware.

0:13:48.720 --> 0:13:51.760
<v Speaker 3>I mean, think about that doesn't have anything that could

0:13:51.800 --> 0:13:53.319
<v Speaker 3>be on that plane that could.

0:13:53.200 --> 0:13:55.520
<v Speaker 2>Jeopardize national security. So that all has to happen.

0:13:55.559 --> 0:13:58.880
<v Speaker 3>However, with all of that said, President Trump, you remember,

0:13:59.360 --> 0:14:02.760
<v Speaker 3>as I I think as recently as August of twenty

0:14:02.800 --> 0:14:07.520
<v Speaker 3>twenty five, maintained that that plane from the Qatari royal

0:14:07.520 --> 0:14:10.079
<v Speaker 3>family was going to be ready to go by February

0:14:10.240 --> 0:14:13.440
<v Speaker 3>of twenty twenty six. So according to the President, and

0:14:13.480 --> 0:14:15.360
<v Speaker 3>we haven't heard I'd checked to see if he's made

0:14:15.400 --> 0:14:20.000
<v Speaker 3>any other statements on the timeline of this plane. No,

0:14:20.360 --> 0:14:22.880
<v Speaker 3>the last we heard from the President that Beauty was

0:14:22.920 --> 0:14:25.960
<v Speaker 3>going to be ready to fly next month. So that'll

0:14:25.960 --> 0:14:28.800
<v Speaker 3>be really interesting to say, see if it actually is

0:14:29.000 --> 0:14:29.560
<v Speaker 3>ready to fly.

0:14:31.120 --> 0:14:33.880
<v Speaker 1>Maybe he's sabotaged Air Force one so he could use

0:14:33.920 --> 0:14:35.800
<v Speaker 1>this to make his point that he needs that Katari

0:14:35.880 --> 0:14:36.680
<v Speaker 1>plane immediately.

0:14:36.760 --> 0:14:40.080
<v Speaker 3>The timing is quite interesting with all the controversy. Now

0:14:40.200 --> 0:14:42.240
<v Speaker 3>he has to turn around, there's an electoral issue. The

0:14:42.280 --> 0:14:44.120
<v Speaker 3>whole press corps has to get off the plane. You know,

0:14:44.200 --> 0:14:48.360
<v Speaker 3>everybody was inconvenience and wooh, in just a few weeks

0:14:48.400 --> 0:14:51.360
<v Speaker 3>a shiny new jet from Cutter will be ready to go.

0:14:51.560 --> 0:14:53.360
<v Speaker 1>And I hope everybody going to understand this is all

0:14:53.440 --> 0:14:56.680
<v Speaker 1>dripping in sarcasm. We are just joking. We are not suggesting,

0:14:56.680 --> 0:14:59.520
<v Speaker 1>for Rio, that the president's sabotage an electrical issue on

0:14:59.600 --> 0:15:02.240
<v Speaker 1>Air Force one. Just kidding. But he is not the

0:15:02.280 --> 0:15:05.640
<v Speaker 1>only one. Marco Rubio had an issue last year, had

0:15:05.680 --> 0:15:08.160
<v Speaker 1>to turn his plane around. Kamala Harris had an issue once,

0:15:08.160 --> 0:15:10.120
<v Speaker 1>had to turn her plane around. Yes, it happened to

0:15:10.240 --> 0:15:13.480
<v Speaker 1>Obama as well during his presidency that there was an issue,

0:15:13.520 --> 0:15:17.359
<v Speaker 1>had to turn around. None of these were qualified emergencies.

0:15:17.440 --> 0:15:20.200
<v Speaker 1>I don't believe, just an abundance of caution type thing.

0:15:20.240 --> 0:15:22.320
<v Speaker 1>But they will tell you, and certainly the ones who

0:15:22.360 --> 0:15:25.320
<v Speaker 1>fly on these things all the time, this is nothing new.

0:15:25.480 --> 0:15:27.600
<v Speaker 1>And I guess world is just like folks who fly

0:15:27.960 --> 0:15:31.560
<v Speaker 1>all the time. Commercially, this happens if you fly enough,

0:15:31.840 --> 0:15:35.480
<v Speaker 1>you get stuck. The pilot says, wait on some paperwork.

0:15:35.560 --> 0:15:37.600
<v Speaker 1>They're just checking something out on the right engine. Da

0:15:37.720 --> 0:15:39.320
<v Speaker 1>da da, You hear something. It happens.

0:15:39.480 --> 0:15:41.920
<v Speaker 3>I mean, you know, sometimes the bathroom, the toilet won't

0:15:41.920 --> 0:15:43.440
<v Speaker 3>flush and you have to turn around and get on

0:15:43.480 --> 0:15:45.960
<v Speaker 3>a new plane. So yes, anything can happen, and when

0:15:46.000 --> 0:15:49.240
<v Speaker 3>you travel enough, you will experience sitting on the plane,

0:15:49.280 --> 0:15:51.880
<v Speaker 3>getting off the plane, waiting for a new plane. The

0:15:51.880 --> 0:15:55.280
<v Speaker 3>good news is his pilots didn't time out his flight attendants.

0:15:55.320 --> 0:15:56.880
<v Speaker 3>They didn't have to find new ones like he didn't

0:15:56.920 --> 0:15:58.920
<v Speaker 3>deal with all the other commercial issues that happen when

0:15:58.960 --> 0:16:01.480
<v Speaker 3>you have a mechanic a issue more an electrical issue.

0:16:01.560 --> 0:16:04.520
<v Speaker 3>So it's good to know that they were ready with

0:16:05.320 --> 0:16:06.040
<v Speaker 3>another plane.

0:16:07.040 --> 0:16:08.520
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, folks want to hop on and give this

0:16:08.600 --> 0:16:11.840
<v Speaker 1>update developing story overnight. Certainly, keep an eye on our

0:16:11.880 --> 0:16:15.000
<v Speaker 1>feed today there will be a lot of developments and trials.

0:16:15.000 --> 0:16:17.200
<v Speaker 1>Also keeping an eye on the president's speech when he

0:16:17.240 --> 0:16:19.840
<v Speaker 1>does eventually make it. As always, top right corner of

0:16:19.840 --> 0:16:21.840

<v Speaker 1>for now, I'm TJ. Holmes on behalf of my Jeremy robot.

0:16:34.960 --> 0:16:35.560
<v Speaker 1>We'll talk to you out
