You really have to wonder who your audience is when you feel it's necessary to describe what Air Force One is.

The salute to America was absolutely breathtaking it made you proud to be an American and Trump gave the best speech I've ever heard it made us all be very proud that President Trump is our president. Now let's see what the left wing Democrats are going to say about it.

Why are you covering this travesty? So much respect for msnbc for refusing to air it. shameful

It’s not “Aircraft One”?

People get a clue hes trying to change his image and be more presidential. And the North Korea DMZ show. Hes trying to pick up new supporters. He figures his base will stay put.

Maybe they should fly it right into the CNN building, that would be cool.

Thanks for wasting more of my tax $ realDonaldTrump. What a disgrace. This “celebration” is a joke. What’s this 1940s Russia or Germany. “Ha ha. My tank is bigger than yours. Ha ha. “ 488 days and counting Donny. Hopefully less.
