The Pentagon is going out to buy/build two new Air Force One planes for the President.
However, this has become a hot topic now....because President Trump suggested a redesign of the colors on the plane.
He wants to dump the baby-blue color scheme, and go more 'colorful' (meaning something of a red, white and blue.
So, it's comical....yesterday, an amendment was attached to the Pentagon spending plan by a Democratic House member (Conn), which calls for congressional approval on “interior, paint and fixtures.”
Yes, you'd have a committee, or sub-committee in charge of Air Force One interior and exterior decoration. You can imagine the hearings....the 'experts' called in.....the challenges involved.
Will the amendment stand? I have my doubts. I just can't see Pelosi wanting to get into the middle of some interior/exterior decoration committee and having a public fight over a carpet change, from x-color to y-color.
Ridiculous? Yes, but that's the level of frustration that you have these days. Perhaps someone ought to suggest that all House and Senate interior/exterior schemes should be reviewed by the public, and they should face some public approval as well.
