The sharp eyes of English plane enthusiast Alan Meloy led to the unveiling of President Donald Trump’s secret trip to Iraq, according to a Thursday CNN report.
The large tail left by the plane piqued Meloy’s interest when he spotted it through his kitchen window. Per CNN, he snapped a photo and immediately recognized the VC-25, a modified Boeing craft used as Air Force One. Only two exist in the world.
Meloy posted the photo online, sparking a flurry of speculation about Trump’s travel plans. Thus, Trump’s movements became public, despite Secret Service precautions like flying the plane under an innocuous callsign and with its lights out.
A few hours later, the President and first lady arrived in Iraq.
Tail ? Is that a hit on Donald’s derriere ? “Trail” or “Contrail” it is, @Kate_Riga
I don’t care. Do u?

lol yes he did
This is of mild interest but we need a thread on how askeered Trump was that they had to close the windows and be as inconspicuous as possible landing in Iraq. He talked about what they “went through,” said he was concerned for Melania and “the institution of the presidency” but not of course for his own stern, manly self.
Heh.
