President Trump’s Air Force One subterfuge duped potential adversaries — and the press. Here’s what happened.
President Trump’s Air Force One subterfuge pales in comparison to the secrecy surrounding Russia’s president, whose fixation on security has reached new heights in recent years.
Trump was stowed away in an airport catering container in order to sneak onto an alternate aircraft, while Air Force One took off to act as a decoy.
After boarding Air Force One at the NATO summit last month, Trump exited that airplane and embarked on another one in an extraordinary act of subterfuge aimed at avoiding a threat from Iran, according to a U.S. official. To pull off the maneuver, Trump secretly boarded a catering truck after entering Air Force One in view of press cameras.The Washington Post first reported the plane swap, which a U.S. official confirmed to MS NOW and Trump confirmed late Tuesday. Carol Leonnig, who previously reported on security concerns with Trump's Qatari-gifted Air Force One, explains the story and shares her analysis.
The extraordinary subterfuge was aimed at protecting an American president who has been in Iran’s cross hairs for years.
