So. you want to make a big deal out of one billion that you seem to think Trump is wasting but you chose to ignore the more than 180 billion that Biden pis*ed away on student loan forgiveness.  That one billion is a drop in the bucket compared to what Biden spent and that's not including the billions wasted on supporting criminal migrant gangbangers who gave nothing in return, other than murdering innocent Americans.  Your priorities are the reason the Democrats are described as a "cracked out clown car".

     A billion is a big deal--or should be when the US is so heavily in debt.   So, with your thinking, it's ok to completely waste a billion or more dollars because other money has also been wasted.  Okey dokey.  I'm an independent voter, by the way, who did not agree with the student loan forgiveness program or the lax border control.

One billion to renovate?  That's a great deal for the taxpayers.  It costs 2 billion to build a new Air Force One.  Sounds like a savings of one billion.  Try not to let your hate get in the way of basic math.

And for that you get a zero hour airframe and engines etc and NOT a 13 tear old second hand airframe with who knows how many hours on it. And yet YOU seem to think that it is a bargain, (so does Trump).

 

What is a second hand 13 year old Boeing 747 worth on the market nowadays?

 

There is an interesting article on Newsweek about this aircraft and several others of  the airlines Boeing 747 fleet.
