Wait, but if they're going to spend all that money retrofitting it and making sure it's safe, and then it goes into the trump personal library... that's not fair. It should stay with the office of the president.
Trumps essentially using tax payer dollars to soup up the plane he's going to keep. That's not right.

"That's not right" and "that's not fair" are not in Trump's vocab when it comes to something that benefits himself and/or his buddies.

Speaking of benefits, Orange Turd is making even more money with his cryptocurrency $TRUMP meme coin.
https://www.reuters.com/world/us/buy...mp-2025-05-12/
NEW YORK, May 12 (Reuters) - Buyers of U.S. President Donald Trump’s $TRUMP meme coin spent an estimated $148 million in the contest to win the opportunity to dine with the president at his private golf club outside of Washington, D.C. on May 22, according to crypto intelligence firm Inca Digital.
The event, which the president promoted on social media as the “most EXCLUSIVE INVITATION in the world,” promised the top 220 holders of the $TRUMP meme coin an invite to a gala dinner with the president, while the top 25 will also enjoy “an ultra-exclusive private VIP reception” with the president as well as a “Special VIP Tour.”

Trump’s crypto foray has generated at least $350 million in revenue, according to a Financial Times analysis from March. The earnings include $314 million from token sales and another $36 million from fees.

In china, people have to disclose and open box their moon cakes to ensure there ain't no money inside / cut down on bribes (2013)... yet Trump accepts airplanes as gifts cause "it's not good to say no" wth

I think the consequences for bribery (nowadays) are too severe in China. USA, on the other hand...

Not sure if you have noticed all these years, but the country with 40 million people in it is at just a little bit of a disadvantage to the one with 400 million.

It was never “elbows up”
It was Bend over.

Well then you're not understanding the origins of the phrase and falsely equivocating it with a group.
It's not attributed to the Liberal Party of Canada nor is it exclusive to voters of the Liberal Party.
It originated with Gordie Howe, who was definitely not a Liberal and was adopted to resist, as much as one possibly can (and is basically performative since we're miniscule in comparison to them) the USA thinking Canadians are always easygoing about everything.
This notion that it is exclusively a Liberal Party catchphrase is ridiculous. I see the signs in store windows all over Calgary and we have a grand total of 1 Liberal Party candidate here.
This whole message string is a sign the Cons haven't done fuck all about changing their message. Just continuing to sit on the sidelines bitching again and pretending/insinuating they have or would have had a better solution when they don't and never did. If that's not the very definition of being a bunch of total losers I don't know what is. Even when it's good for Canada or as good as it CAN be for Canada, they still naysay it JUST BECAUSE. Good strategy, worked really well the last 10 years.

It's hockey you idiot. I know you've never played a sport but it's about putting your elbow up to do a dirty hit, when you are supposed to use your shoulder to the body. A Gordie Howe, or messier favourite.
