Please be dead. Please be dead. Please be dead.

If you missed it:

The president then departed for Switzerland aboard a new plane about an hour later.

I mean, that's entirely plausible, which is why they would use that excuse to cover for any other story.

He forgot to pack his diapers and needed to turn around to get them.

Reminds me of all those "helicopter randomly malfunctions in a hot warzone" news we got when I was in the (French) army, lol. Can't let the truth ruin the esprit de corps!

To be fair, desert sand isn't too good for turbines. In Mali a German Tiger helicopter crashed and killed both pilots after a malfunction

Well, helicopters do occasionally randomly fall from the air, even in peacetime.

It just happens that suring war, some also explode (for no reason of course) before they hit the ground.

Spontaneous Explosion (Ignore the mid-flight RPG warhead in the cabin at the time, that was an unrelated incident)

Reminds me of those "trump hasn't been seen in 3 days" conspiracies that were flying around last year

[–] xxce2AAb@feddit.dk 19 points 1 month ago

Maybe they're just trying to sky-write a dick pointing towards Switzerland to signal their intentions more clearly than Trump could be expected to verbally convey.

"After finishing his 5th Big Mac and 3rd litre of cola, The President promptly shat himself and shat all over the seat and the interior of the aircraft. As usual, we turned back round to collect the 'sparecraft' whilst this one goes in for cleaning."

Allegedly electrical issues from what I heard. But let’s keep our fingers crossed for The Event

They're not supposed to start up the MRI mid-flight!

[–] logicbomb@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

Maybe a homeless man pointed a cat toy at the plane and blinded the pilot.
