Trump flew to the NATO summit in Ankara aboard the new Qatari-gifted jet but told reporters he'd travel partway home on the older-model Air Force One instead, sending the new plane ahead so U.S. troops at Mildenhall could tour it. According to The Washington Post, minutes after boarding the legacy Air Force One on camera, Trump was secretly shuttled via catering truck to a smaller C-32A, which then carried him to the United Kingdom.
The Secret Service declined to comment and the White House did not directly address the Post's report. Communications director Steven Cheung said only that the president has 'many enemies' with 'their sights on him' and that the administration uses 'every tool at our disposal' to address threats.
