The Washington Post reported that a credible Iranian threat to fire a missile at Trump's plane led to a secret aircraft swap as he left the NATO summit in Ankara, with Trump transferred via catering truck from Air Force One to a smaller military jet en route to Britain. The switch came a day after renewed U.S. strikes on Iran following collapsed negotiations between Washington and Tehran.

Journalists aboard the decoy Air Force One, unaware Trump had already left, were told to lower their window shades; Trump later joked they were 'probably on a dangerous flight' and that 'if I go, you go.' Communications director Steven Cheung said the administration uses 'every available tool' to protect the president from unnamed enemies.

The full dispatch is available from the source below.

✒ FROM THE EDITORIAL DESK
A joke about shared danger lands differently when only one person in the exchange knew he'd already been swapped onto a different plane. The administration's habit of confirming the existence of threats while declining to confirm literally anything about the response to them is its own small performance.
