Trump switched planes in Turkey due to ASSASSINATION threat: Report

[media=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OJXQubI91b0]

Trump switched planes in Turkey due to ASSASSINATION threat:
New reporting this morning about an assassination threat against President Trump last month that's just now coming to light. The Washington Post reports President Trump secretly flew out of the NATO Summit in Turkey back in July, not on Air Force One, but on a different military aircraft while the White House made it appear he was flying on Air Force One. The Post reveals the operation was prompted by an Iranian assassination threat against Trump. The Hill’s Julia Manchester joins Way Too Early to discuss the latest on the reported threat, the stalemate with Iran, and more.

My comments:

If this was a “secret” or “classified” as tRUMP & Kegsbreath are now attempting to claim, it certainly was not handled very well at all.

At the time he was attempting to board the Qatari bribe plane—and I posted this at the time—the Secret Service stopped him in Turkey and told him he could not use that plane and (we thought at the time took him on board an older Air Force One [there are several AF-1s actually] because they did hide the shuffling of him to a third plane via a loading truck) due to an Iranian credible death threat.

But all along there were concerns that the Qatari plane was not adequately equipped for missile/drone/fighter jet defense, command & control, security, etc. and that it would take many, many months to so equip it even if it could be done!

In fact, there were rumors (probably not credible, however) of a Qatari kill switch which supposedly could “disable” all or certain aspects of the plane.

Now I hear that people were fired and may face criminal charges because they are calling this a “security leak???”

C’mon! These fools are rank amateurs trying to compete in the Big Leagues! They better wise up fast!!!

I was thinking for security reasons Trump was asked to give up his phone because there could be a tracking virus on it that the Iranians could use to keep on target. But maybe Trump didn't give it up because there are things on it that could incriminate him. Maybe he claimed that his phone was a T mobile the most secure phone in the world (it's not). Cheers!

@Nanoose Sadly, you are probably 100% correct

It probably was good protective maneuvers to protect potus.
What is disgusting is, they let af1 take off filled with the press and who knows who.
@Carla That used to be SOP and their flubbing of the simple stuff shows that they are all not ready for prime time players.

@Carla My second thought when I read the article yesterday. The first one was: they were able to fit him inside a catering container? The third: he flew a 757 with no gold faucets?
@Northwest …I wonder if a catering container would float…I mean if they forgot to take him out and the container just happened to be jettisoned at say, 35,000 feet???
