President Trump

Air Force One is the official air traffic control-designated call sign for a United States Air Force aircraft carrying the president of the United States.
I'm surprised that Harrison Ford didn't know this.

If I remember rightly, because of this Air Force One has taken off more times than it has landed. There’s been at least one occasion where the Presidency changed hands while it was in the air (I think Nixon’s resignation).

I found out on some TV quiz show recently that air force one is not an aircraft

Correct!

It is not “an” aircraft, it is “the” aircraft the President is on at any particular moment, as noted by its ATC designation.

Of course, we are all familiar with the 747 being Air Force One, and the 757 being Air Force Two, but these are simply aircraft designations given to whichever aircraft the President and Vice-President, respectively, are flying.

For ease, and lack of confusion, people often call the aircraft by their designations so people know which aircraft they’re talking about…like shorthand.

Only because they haven't found a way to blame either Biden or Obama for it yet.

As soon as they can do that, they'll acknowledge it, to a man.

They'll be at rallies wearing T-shirts with photos of imaginary relatives who've died of skin cancer...

They simply wouldn't allow themselves to believe it, even if they did see it.

I've mentioned a couple of times on here how I've been on Truth Social trying to engage MAGA in even a basic conversation, in an attempt to understand where this blind loyalty originates. I've given up now - it's just not possible. I've dumbed it down to single sentence questions, but nothing doing.

They have no concept of a discussion - nobody moves the conversation along, instead every reply is simply one breadhead after another posting some unrelated sound-byte they've heard (even the most inane receiving hundreds of 'likes') .

If you posted 'You do agree that black is black, and white is white, do you?' you'd see a reply like 'green's better than blue'.

They all think that Trump is their buddy. One woman - I kid you not - posted:
'it was the proudest moment of my life, Mr President, that day you re-truthed my post - you probably remember it?'

Yes, dear - he has a print-out on his bedroom ceiling...

Biden's slips were (justifiably) taken as hard proof that he was mentally unsound, but MAGA admit that they are happy to ignore Trump's daily ramblings.

I'm obviously not trying to incite anything, but the only way that this won't became a decades-long dynasty, is if Trump is taken out before a natural successor has been brought up to his god-like status, in the eyes of MAGA.

Have any of trumps' acolytes even queried the MAGA slogan?
I don't hear many asking exactly how he proposes to achieve his ambition.....

I literally saw one post on twitter the other day ( who claimed to be a Dr ) that the Sun doesn't cause skin cancer, Sun block does.
