Episode Details

Trump allegedly pulled off a high-stakes, secret plane switcheroo in December—hiding in a catering truck to board a decoy aircraft while Air Force One flew away as bait—after security flagged an Iranian threat during a Turkey trip.

When a president’s location is obscured—even for safety—it creates global uncertainty and questions about command and control.
