[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m sure that aircrew was appreciative of a little downtime at such a nice place.

Globemasters aren’t like flying commercial. They’re slower, wayyyyyy louder inside, and generally are about as comfortable as riding on a wood bench in the back of a moving truck. I’d be thrilled at the prospect of a sauna dip and a comfy bed after 6,000 miles on a C17.

Good for Trump for thinking of those Airmen’s comfort. That’s class. [/quote]

There are 100+ hotels closer to the airport than Trump's failed property. This is outright theft, and the chain of commaned at the USAF needs to be brought to military justice on this. Shameful at every level.[/quote]

So there are 100+ hotels they could’ve kept the crew in instead? That’s what you’re saying? All of which would’ve also required money being spent, in some cases perhaps more money, to put the crew up for the night.

So is your issue here the fact that money was spent to put the crew up in lodging? Or that it was spent at a Trump property? I can’t tell which just by your outrage. For all I know, like most Trump haters, you also hate the military and would tell them to just sleep in the cargo hold for the night. So it’s hard to pin down where your hate is focused.

Did it ever occur to you that maybe the Trump property offered a heavily discounted rate for the crew? Maybe it was cheaper than any similar hotel? Wouldn’t that make good fiscal sense?

Because if the rate was lower and the DoD paid more to stay somewhere else, I suspect you’d be complianing that Trump was being fiscally reckless.

There was no need to go to ANY of those 100+ hotels.  They never stopped off at Scotland before.  It's out of the way.  They normally stay the night at an American air base, which is guaranteed to be cheaper than a Trump hotel.  [/quote]

+1 and to add, the fuel at an American air force base is cheaper than paying for it at the Scotland airport. I seriously cannot believe people are trying to justify this is okay.[/quote]
