Trump Organization Helicopter Allegedly Involved In Accident Last Month - Details Kept Secret

[bathroommonkey76]

One of the Trump Organization helicopters was involved in an accident last month and the details were intentionally kept secret, according to latest rumors. The alleged crash happened upon landing on June 15 at the West Side Heliport, and as a result, the rotor was sheared clear off. Rumor has it that Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner were on board at the time of the incident, but there has not been any confirmation as to who was on board. Sources claim that the crash was kept secret so as not to embarrass President Trump.

While Donald Trump is in office, he is not allowed to fly on his own helicopters or planes for security reasons, and so the Trump Organization vehicles are used for the Trump family, friends, and employees of the Trump Organization. When Donald Trump first took office and was spending the bulk of his time in Washington, D.C., and Florida, there was a rumor circulating that Donald Trump Jr. was using the Trump jets and helicopters to transport President Trump’s favorite food from New York to the White House. Donald Trump is known as a picky eater and his taste in food leans towards what most people would consider fast food. One of Donald Trump’s favorite New York restaurants is San Pietro, and his favorite dish there is the sauteed chicken, which the owner is said to pack up for the president, and the buzz is that Donald Jr. transports it to his father when he travels to Washington.

A witness who saw the alleged incident involving the Trump Organization helicopter claimed that after the incident, helipad workers scrambled to cover up the word “Trump” on the side of the craft with tape as not to embarrass President Trump.

The president must travel on Air Force One and Marine One, and when his children and family travel with him, they also travel on Air Force One and Marine One. But the Trump children can continue to use the Trump Organization planes and helicopters when they aren’t traveling with the president. Calls to the Trump Organization in reference to the reported crash were not returned, but the FAA did confirm that there was an accident and that they are investigating.

1. Interesting!!!!

[tanyev]

2. So he saw San Pietro's sauteed chicken more often than he saw his wife, hmm?

[SweetieD]

3. I still don't understand why this would be kept secret? How would it embarrass Trump?

Was there someone with Ivanka and Jared who should not have been with them?

[dixiegrrrrl]

4. Not to piss of Trump, more likely.

His precious daughter and Jared in danger from one of his helicopters? I sorta think he would raise hell, esp. around the maintenance of the things.

[gratuitous]

15. Pictures of a wrecked copter on the helipad with TRUMP on the side

Very bad optics, and Trump is very sensitive to how things "look" if not always appreciative for how things are, is my guess. It might also raise some inconvenient questions about Trump family activities that the White House would rather not answer.

Keep this sort of attention to detail in mind as we watch the continual unfolding of the Russian affair. There will be a concerted effort to distance the president from anyone who gets caught in a compromised position, but the reality is that none of these minions wipe their nose without making sure it's okay with the Boss. The idea that Junior, Jared and Manafort met with a Russian agent without notifying Big Daddy is preposterous.

5. There is more to this story

I would guess there is some type of charge to the Govt going on.

[NBachers]

6. That was my first thought - Are we paying for this shit?

[smirkymonkey]

13. I think you are probably right.

The "embarrassment" line is bs. The man has NO shame. I'm not buying it.

[Justice]

16. 100% there is more to this story. Thinking about when news first broke about SC Governor hiking...

you thought, hmm, that sounds off.


Low and behold he was with his mistress (but because he is a republican, after resigning from office, he was elected to Congress!)

This heliocopter story has the same sort of hmm, that sounds off.

7. Ivahhhnkah and Jahhhr-uhd were on board?

In that case, I am sorry there were no injuries.

[jmowreader]

8. We are looking at a major executive security problem here

The food the president eats, at least until this fascist bastard stole the White House, is VERY tightly controlled for reasons which should be all too obvious: does the name Lucrezia Borgia ring a bell?

There are two conditions under which a president can eat food. One is if the White House kitchen receives food through its prescribed channels and cooks it for him. The other is for the Navy Chief that runs the White House kitchen to go to the restaurant the president wants to eat at and watches them prepare his food.

There is NO condition where someone can just run to a restaurant three states away, grab a take-out order and bring it to him. For one thing, how are they maintaining temperature control so this crap doesn't turn into some sort of diabolical science project?

[SweetieD]

12. Is that true? I remember obama going to Bens chili bowl in dc. So does that mean

someone from secret service first has to watch them prepare meal?

[jmowreader]

17. Yes. There are always advance teams

I was looking this up and found an article on a Republican working group meeting Susan Collins catered. All the Republicans were eating the food and suffering no ill effects, but his food inspector wasn't there to watch it being made so he couldn't have any.

Trump might not go along with this because the inspector - a Navy messman of very long service - might slip something into the food that would kill him, like flavor. Trump is a tasteless fuck, and so are his meals.

[wishstar]

9. I thought Secret Service accompanies Ivanka and Jared now at all times

Seems unlikely they were on board

[no_hypocrisy]

10. Couldn't Trump have the sauteed chicken Fed-Exed to the WH or is he

that concerned about a chain-of-custody and afraid of being poisoned?

[Achilleaze]

11. republican TransFakency

freaking republicans lie about everything

[smirkymonkey]

14. Don't they have KFC and McDonald's in DC?

Does he really have to be so wasteful?

[KWR65]

18. Rumors pass as news here. Thanks for nothing n/t

[bathroommonkey76]

20. Does the FAA open investigations based on rumors?

"According to the Daily Mail, the FAA confirmed an investigation into the incident, but directed all questions to the White House, which has not commented. The Trump Organization has also declined comment."

19. I'm just curious, but

where exactly in the Constitution does it say that Trump CANNOT fly in his own planes and HAS to fly in AF1 or Marine 1? If it is not in the Constitution, where is it, and how does it have authority over the Executive?

If the Trump wants to fly on his own plane, who, exactly, is the one that tells him, "No", and what prevents him from being fired?

I'm sorry, but these things that you have passed off as fact just makes the whole story stink to high heaven.

[dumbcat]

21. So, no answer?

[bathroommonkey76]

23. I'd say the SS has say in all travel for the BLOTUS

Try a Google search and you'll see.

[dumbcat]

24. I'd say

that's what I thought. Nothing.

22. The NTSB would be on this secret or no secret

and back in 1974 they had a airplane crash into Mt. Weather of all places -- Didn't stop them from investigating and making their findings public (although in the interest of national security they did slightly fudge the *exact* location of the crash site
