President Trump Discloses Threat Led To Covert Plane Switch
President Donald Trump revealed that he was removed from Air Force One in Turkey last month due to a threat, and was secretly flown to the United Kingdom on a different plane. The incident was kept secret for weeks, with the President’s whereabouts concealed from the public and the press. Trump downplayed the risk to those left on Air Force One, saying he didn’t ask about the threat and wasn’t scared. The incident has raised questions about the level of security concern for the President and the use of covert operations. This story was first reported by The Washington Post and confirmed by the Associated Press.
