Facing a real Iranian assassination threat, the Secret Service pulled off an extraordinary operation — smuggling Trump out of a plane in a catering truck, flying him on a decoy route on a C-32A under a nondescript call sign, then getting him safely onto the new Air Force One in Britain. This is the next-level,kind of real-time protection a president deserves. The plan worked flawlessly.
Trump's "deception operation" in Turkey left reporters and White House staff on a decoy plane — unknowingly used as bait — while Trump slipped out the back into a catering truck. After telling reporters, "I go, you go," Trump actually left them behind on a plane flying under the Air Force One call sign without him aboard. ThatThis wasn't heroic security, asbut it endangered the lives of everyone kept in the dark of their unexplained security move.
There's a 21.5% chance that Donald J. Trump will vacate the U.S. Presidency before noon Eastern Time on Jan. 20, 2029, according to the Metaculus prediction community.
