With President Trump, each day is like winning the Superbowl on Christmas eve in Disney World, during a Patriotic MEGA MAGA fireworks show.

Also, Chuck Norris wears Donald Trump pajamas.

Yeah it wans’t for show - it was to confuse any potential snipers. They do the same when Trump rides in a caravan - no one knows what vehicle he's in.

But it's still a cool idea that it was for show and drama...

the US code outlines some guidelines that you should be aware of and dispels a few myths.

If worn on one side, the flag should be worn in a manner that displays the union (stars) as moving in the wind- What this means is that when wearing the flag on the right shoulder of a uniform, right side of a vehicle or any other moving platform the stars should lead the flag. This causes the flag to often appear “backwards”. In reality the flag is being worn in the manner that if it was freestanding it would fly. It is important to note that is a guideline set forth by the US military, not by the US Code.

“Like a Boss!”

Yes but even more so: Capo di tutti capi, Italian for “Boss of all bosses”

Anyone know what kind of helicopters are in the Davos photo?

Six helicopters shown. Three appear to me to be Blackhawks of some sort. The other three I’m not sure of.

The direction the flag flies as a cavalrymen holds a flag while charging upon his horse!

Horses really should have been our National animal. At the very least for the post office!

I suspect the photo is reversed. When the President deplanes Marine One on the White House lawn, he exits from the port side.

GATE is a Japanese manga that was adapted into an anime TV series. You can find a lot of clips of the battle scenes on YouTube.

Was in DC a few years ago. When Barry was landing in marine one at White House there were three identical helicopters that swooped in fast and landed on tWhite House lawn. Two just touched and lifted off. Told they do that so bad guys don’t know which one POTUS is in to help protect him.

Once President Johnson landed at an Air Force base and a young officer directed the President over to a helicopter while saying, “Sir, your helicopter is over here.” Johnson replied, “Son, they’re all my helicopters.”

Would definitely be worth it if a couple of LRAD-equipped helicopters played that on the inbound flight.

Scatters potential rioters while delivering a powerful message to the Davos attendees.
