    Wouldn’t be the first time for high ranking officials to die that way. It happened at least once in the soviet union.

      We know you can make it happen God, we’ve seen you do it with that skit-of-skits billionaire sub thing God. We know you just need them to all willingly line up God. Well they’re lining up, God! They’re willingly lining up! It’s your time to shine God!

      Would be even better if they got boeing to help too. Would be just the best plane ever, such a great plane. Other people would look at it (as it explodes in a fireball in the sky) and say wow what a beautiful thing

    Beside all the jokes that we want the president and trump to ride that plane together… He’s on a mission to save as much money as possible and then he wants two new airplanes for himself???

      So technically they were commissioned during the Obama era, Trump 1 threatened to cancel the program if the budget went over 4 billion, then Boeing appeased him.

      Also the reason they were commissioned to save money. Aging aircraft are a bitch to operate. That’s why cheap airlines like Ryanair only run new planes.

      Also there are already two of them. I suppose one is probably a backup?

      Also, fun fact, technically any plane that the US president is currently flying on, is at that moment, Air Force One.

    trump killing himself by using Musk to skirt safety precautions so he can feel special riding around in a shiny new ego tube might be enough to get me wondering if god exists.

    Ordinarily, the implied result would be sad due to the press corps flies on air Force one as well, but now that they’ve replaced all reputable news outlets with Fox clones… Let’s do this!

    Oh wow, what’s the worst that could happen, they skip safety and defense features and the plane gets shot down and the president killed? Oh man, that would be horrible, just horrible!

        As liberals are the other half of the same coin, they are responsible for at least half the horrible shit that happens in the country. Why not give them the blame for killing the president though, it could be the one useful thing they do in the last several years!

            Hey, you guys enshrined abortion rights into law, since you had the chance and promised to do it, right? No? Well, at the very least you didn’t use the police to brutalize anti-genocide protesters, right? No? Well, at the very least, you’re standing up to Trump and opposing his Project 2025, right?

            No?

              Which of those things did the aforementioned non-white christians [they probably meant non-christians, but whatever] cause specifically?

              Edit: Did 100% of the people in those groups cause this?

          If he has the power to stop the suffering, being indifferent to it is evil. If not, sure.

              Only if I’m doing so intentionally. I don’t have the power to know where every insect is and keep them from harm accordingly.

              Maybe, but did you just compare millions of human beings’ suffering to a handful of insects?

              Besides, why are you comparing individuals’ indifference to God’s (potential) indifference? I don’t think that’s a fair comparison.

      Holy shit so many desperate prayers in one thread

      I think they can be convinced to pause their game of Jenga or Connect Four for a few minutes of structural integrity or engine failure
