10. In the interest of national security

No president should ever use that plane while in office. If Putin, or whoever else has access to the codes to get into the software, wants to bring it down with a bunch if civilians in it, I’m sure it will be done without any US authorities being able to do anything about it.

Oh, and while Tuberville is busy ranting on about how we’re “saving” a billion dollars by accepting this “gift,” I’d like to hear who is donating to the US Treasury the $1 billion necessary to retrofit the plane? Or don’t they teach arithmetic in that Alabama school where he was coaching football?
