Former Speaker Kevin McCarthy Trashes Republicans Who Are Calling for President Biden to Resign.

"That is a mistake...

"Air Force One is very powerful when it lands somewhere.

"And you know what? Something will happen between now and the election. A hurricane or something else. And she'll be able to present herself as a leader. Or maybe there's some foreign policy."

I think it suits the democrats pretty well to have Biden in the Oval Office with Harris free to campaign energetically full time. But I hadn't considered the powerful symbol of Air Force One.

So maybe Biden can fly to various appearances with Harris in important battleground venues; speak in front of Air Force One. Thanks, Mike!!

@ElwoodBlues @Carla Air Force two is just as impressive as Air Force one.

@Carla

potus and vp cannot fly on the same plane though.

McCarthy was responding to Republicans who want President Biden to resign - as the headline of the post indicates.

@DeWayfarer

The call designation of whatever plane the president or vice president is using is either "Air Force One" or "Air Force Two", respectively.
