bruce wilkie commented: "trump must go" on Feb 27, 2020.

(Rotflmao) Has to be the most confusing comment I've read in a long, long time. In what remote part of your brain do you see any connection between "Trump" and my 9 year old photo of a United Airlines Airbus? Oh, wait, maybe I get it. Somehow, you must think that this photo of a small A320 is a picture of a giant B747 known as Air Force One. Really? You think THIS is a photo of Air Force One? I mean, what other reason could you possibly have for mentioning Trump under my picture of this small Airbus that was not built in America and that has absolutely nothing to do with Trump or with anyone in the federal government. From now on, if ever I make a truly boneheaded comment, I'm going to say, "Ooops, I pulled a bruce wilkie." lolololol

That's a very nice catch, Gary! And I don't understand Bruce's comment, either.

It may not help, but might give a better understanding of "Bruce Wilkies" state of mind.

Hi, Viv. TY for the links. I checked them out. Dude's definitely got issues with Trump, eh? Anyway, Thanx for the links.

He goes from ranting about Trump to blaming Obama. This is not a political website it is about aviation. Keep those comments to yourself, Bruce.
Gavin Hughes
Amen to that Joan.
