[uppityperson]

2. What the....

[NightWatcher]

What an asshole.

4. The most clueless and self-centered human being on the planet, ladies and gentlemen.

Thanks for the shitty president, Republicans and lazy/stupid Democrats.

[Crutchez_CuiBono]

8. Stupid Democrats?

Naw. Try again.

[Maru Kitteh]

10. I would guess the poster refers to the misogynists and purists who decided to stay home,

write somebody in, or vote for anyone other than HRC on election day 2016 because HER EMAILS. Those Democrats were in fact very stupid.

[flibbitygiblets]

13. Thanks, that's what I meant.

[Crutchez_CuiBono]

22. Been a D all my life, and I know ZERO Democrats who did that.

And I know a lot of them. Matter of fact they were excited to vote for the nominee, and for the first woman president. Never heard even a murmur of that at the fund-raising dinners, or anyone even in the parking lot of same. The emails bullshit was for plausible deniability. And this mysterious wave of Democrats that threw everything they knew out the window bc comey said some clap-trap about emails...is over-done and not my experience at all.

5. if you aren't use to it, Combat takeoff and landing

can be scary to some. Probably not good for someone in their 70s who has just snorted some Adderall.

12. I loved both in the USAF!

Still do when I can beg a ride from friends! The only time I've ever been scared on a plane or airline was when the toilets backed up an ran over. Figured I might have to use my barf bag to pee in.

6. Self centered as usual.

[Doodley]

7. Poor snowflake.

9. LMAO

Just to go on R and R from Iraq in 04/05, I had to right in the back of a military plane, that was doing combat landings and takeoffs because of fear of attack...and just to get to that plane I had to ride in a Blackhawk doing combat flying from my base to Baghdad.

Fucking coward.

[Brother Buzz]

11. Mr President, was it as scary as your Lockheed C-141 Starlifter flight to Vietnam?

Oh, wait!

[Liberal In Texas]

14. Snowflake.

Poor guy, had to travel in the luxury 747 with the shades shut. Not even close to what the troops have to put up with.

[Tracer]

15. Good thing the windows were closed.

Might have messed up his "hair".

[CRK7376]

16. Worried about Miss Be Best, what a coward!

Try riding a Combat Talon in and around Afghanistan '02-03. USAF always delivered us to hairy places on time. True professionals! Not cowards like Trump and his fake bone-spurs
.

[Rainngirl]

17. I have been enraged about this all morning

Watching him sitting there, arms folded, creepy scowl on his face, WHINING about having to have the lights off on the plane. Poor precious little pansy had to sit in the dark in his solid gold little world. GOD, I hate him so much!!!!!

[Yavin4]

19. Imagine what our service personnel must be thinking when they see this.

Your commander in chief is afraid of a plane ride.

[NastyRiffraff]

20. "All the windows closed"

on a plane. He would have had a point about danger if those windows had been open. What a moron. And it's complete BS that he was only concerned about the First Lady. His concern is always for himself alone.

[pat_k]

21. Kick

"Pitch Black!" Horror of horrors!

[Crutchez_CuiBono]

23. I wonder if the word "rendition" crossed his pea sized brain when that

pitch black flight was happening? Sounds like a great way to carry him off and arrest his ass in the middle of Minnesota or something, or the Hague. He lands, walks out to steel bracelets.
