No, I didn't. There was never any doubt about you being a political hack. As I've said before you're the conservative equivalent of Ashliana.Quote:

Cool, so add witness tampering to the list.
They are not refrigerators. They are officially called "cold chiller units". Get it straight :).Quote:

A regular 747 costs upward of 350 million. Even with the modifications specifically for Air Force One, it's not a lot in comparison.
Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) on Sunday said special counsel Robert Mueller should take a look at reports that President Trump tried to fire him last summer.
"I don't know if the story is true or not, but I know this, Mueller should look at it," Graham said on ABC's "This Week."
Graham's comments follow a New York Times report this week saying Trump wanted to fire Mueller last June.
Trump reportedly backed off of the order when White House counsel Don McGahn threatened to quit.
"Don McGahn, if the story is true in the New York Times, did the right thing, and the good news is the president listened," Graham said.
"The investigation needs to go forward without political interference, and I'm sure it will," he continued. “As a matter of fact, I think Mr. Mueller is the perfect guy to get to the bottom of all this, and he will.”
"I see no evidence President Trump wants to fire Mueller now," he continued. "I don't know what happened back last year, but it's pretty clear to me that everybody in the White House knows it would be the end of President Trump's presidency if he fired Mr. Mueller."

But because Boeing shut down its 747-200 production several years ago, it has become extremely difficult to replace the planes' parts, according to the trade publication Defense One. That's why, during his second term in office, President Barack Obama ordered a replacement fleet for the Air Force One program that will be built based on the new 747-8 series.

All of the customization and facilities cost a lot. According to a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) letter obtained by Judicial Watch, Obama's Air Force One cost taxpayers $206,337 every hour it flew. Building the replacement 747-8 jets will also be expensive — an estimated $3.73 billion over 12 years. But that's still a small portion of the entire defense budget of $8.132 trillion over that same 12-year time frame, according to Politifact. But because those costs are driven by national security concerns, they could go up in time, too.
I was trying to find how long AF-1 could stay in flight and that's top secret crypto shit I guess.
It's capable of mid-air refueling, so, pretty much indefinitely as long as the logistics are available.Quote:
