Are Trumpkins really sure they want to have a discussion about the appropriate use of military aircraft? Really? Really?

Love how the most basic things like this, which any president would be expected to do, turns into a chance for Trumpsters
to point out that see, he’s got a smidge of human decency in him, he’s not all vileness. Next up you’ll be holding up his saying hello to his staff as a sign of his humanity, or the fact that he didn’t refuse to do something all other presidents have done without question.
So all other Presidents would permit the Vice President’s aircraft to be used to fly the body of a two time failed Presidential candidate to a Washington? I don’t think so. The President authorized the trip not out of the goodness of his heart, but because the sniveling McCain family is relentless in their entitled demands and would have skewered him (unfairly) if he didn’t do so. It was an honor that McCain didn’t deserve, just like the eulogies from two past Presidents who themselves admitted how surprised they were that he asked them to speak. And the three funerals (Arizona, DC, and Annapolis), and the lying in State in the US Capitol, and military jet flyover, and on and on. Does that family have no shame?!
Why can't Cindy use her own money from her vast beer business to pay for some of this extravaganza? She is worth millions but decided to ask Trump for government handout?
Exactly. Trump says yes: he’s wasting our tax dollars and oh btw it’s not AF2
Trump says no: omg what a monster to deny an American hero and his family this honor
I believe the first, calling McCain's family names, is a Trumpster. Liberals tend to be lukewarm on McCain but respectful. The hate is coming from the right.
But, yes, denying use of the plane to transport the body and family of a sitting member of congress would be disrespectful. I'm mildly surprised Trump allowed it but don't think he deserves any special acclaim for following presidential norms, even if that is something of an exception for him.
Presidental norms? What other presidents did this? Curious. If it’s normal wouldn’t we know about it?
