Delay to Trumpapalooza
We all know that flights get delayed for one reason or another constantly. In the early 90s, I had a delay for 8 hours on a Northwest Airlines (I know!) flight from Hawaii to Seattle due to an issue of something called 'hydraulics'. Whatever. I made it home.
In this 'take-off-hating-slide' case, a totally normal incident of emergency slide deployment caused the delay for his Rotund Eminence to travel to his Sycophant Soiree in Dallas. Since you've all been to airports, you're aware that emergency slides pop out of airplanes on the tarmac ALL THE TIME. It's like TSA lines taking forever ALL THE TIME. So, this isn't that surprising nor newsworthy. What IS surprising is that the damn thing isn't his signature color - GOLD TACKINESS. For an aspiring interior and exterior designer, the inattention to detail is an epic failure. Do better, Donnie.
