I do not know the accuracy of these numbers but it is beyond excessive--even if I do not know the exact number!

Some Scandinavian PMs bike to work or take the subway, the Romanian and Moldovan presidents just go by regular commercial flights. More or less the same goes for most European heads of state.

1. planes?

[dpibel]

5. Well, I suppose they could have driven

Assuming, of course, a bridge.

Isn't the idea here that those big SUVs came from the U.S.?

You could get them there on ships. But planes seem more likely.

Assuming, of course, which I don't, that this is reliable info.

But I hope this gives you a way to think about how planes might fit in.

7. the wording is let's say... unclear lol

But I counted 8 US tagged SUV's there, that's 4x Hercules aircraft or 2 Galaxy...

14? lol

I'll be happy to self del if you can link a legit source claiming 14 US transport aircraft.

EDIT: all 8 of those SUV would have been transportable in ONE C5-M Super Galaxy, the standard US heavy transport craft.

2. Need that many to carry his extra eye liner...

JD likes to stay pretty...

3. Hell, they must have hauled in a bunch of

Sofa's.

4. Look at me................

how I'm spending USA's tax payer's money.

Eff ACA subsides.

6. Would've bought a lot of school lunches

But, 'let them eat air'

8. Holy shit, he's riding into Italy like a dictator would.

10. I don't get it? Why should taxpayers pay for someone in our government to attend the Olympics?

11. ........Then follows Meloni casually walking out with her security detail.-at about 4 min mark........

During his visit to Milan JD Vance had a 40 car security motorcade.

Then follows Meloni casually walking out with her security detail.

12. Paranoid much?

13. I didn't know douche

Drew so much drama

[LetMyPeopleVote]

14. 14 airplanes and a convoy of 40 big cars!

15. Intimidation via muscle flexing is the goal here

But it just looks silly. Our big fat cars can barely manage the right-hand turn out of the driveway. Plus one of those drivers was so unfocused he almost rear-ended the car in front of him.

And, Meloni…cool as a cucumber and super-stylish. America would lose its mind if it ever had a President who carries herself the way she does.

16. Peter Thiel wants his investment protected

what a waste of resources. The more hated vance becomes, the dumber his faux pas.
