President Donald Trump’s preferred paint colors will be applied to the new planes which will serve as Air Force One, an Air Force official tells CNN.

The new heavily modified Boeing 747s, which the military designates VC-25B, will be painted red, white, gold and dark blue, a color scheme proposed during Trump’s first term in office but reversed by the Biden administration.

If you have to tell everyone you're a king, then you're not a king.

I would've thought something more like those cars with barely dressed anime girls.

A color that is literally technically worse for some plane components. Good job, asshole.

Fake rich idiot’s approach won him the admiration of America’s dumbest 40%. Hard to argue against: it works. Tacky as shit though, but happy it gives enemy nations a shinier target that stands out from commuter jets…

No, the darker blue. From the article:

“Further analysis concluded darker colors, among other factors, on the underside of the VC-25B aircraft might contribute to temperatures exceeding the current qualification limits of a small number of components,” a spokesperson said at the time.
