Trump Destroys the Earth

20 miles?  No way she could fly that quicker than driving unless there was serious traffic or other delays.  Maybe she wanted to have the plane with her because she was flying somewhere else after.  Still... 20 miles is close.  Where was she?  

It seems she was on Martha's Vineyard (an island), and the event was on Nantucket (a different island). So the option of driving meant driving in a boat, not a car. That, depending on the boat, likely would have taken a bit longer than a plane. IMHO it would also be more relaxing.

But, of course, there's that Russian conspiracy to be worried about. Perhaps the Secret Service had intel that a Rooshan submarine was lurking, prepared to torpedo any boat that Hillary might take between the islands.

She didn't take a Piper Cub, either. For that 20-mile hop, she took a twin-engine, luxery executive jet.

Ah, okay. I hadn't seen that. As much as I want to bash her, hard to do so under those circumstances. If I call out fake news on the left,  I gotta call it out on the right.

Oh, go right ahead. I wouldn't fault you for suggesting that a Learjet or Gulfstream is just a wee mite excessive to hop between two tiny islands off the coast of Cape Cod. At the speed that plane flies, the pilot probably didn't have time to put the landing gear up. I can see flying, but an executive jet is not appropriate.

I agree.  The plane was the best option for her.

Not at all.  Odds are Hillary flew somewhere else after that, so having that plane with her makes sense.  And, I assume, that plane is paid for with private money.

I believe she returned to Martha's Vineyard to continue Bill's birthday festivities. She's a remarkable woman, taking valuable time away from her family to hop a whole 20 miles to deliver a speech. How many other politicians wouldn't have done that?

Is that true?  In that case, she is the most amazing, selfless, kind, caring, loving, courag...

Nope, can't type it with a straight face,

Sure you can. Keep trying ...

I thought Hawaii had a bunch of those little island-hopping airlines, some of which must have smaller executive jets.  Almost like bus routes, and they fly up and down the island chain from the Big Island to Guam or the furthest island (Kure Atoll) or whatever, and then back again.

Fifteen hundred miles total one-way.

I believe Alaska and some of the northern regions of Canada have similar situations, as well as Africa, so it must be a viable business model.

Maybe she just got on a sort of  "aerial bus," got dropped off on the next island, and it continued on its route...?

I'm not too sure of the comparison, what with the distances involved, and I'm NO DEFENDER OF HILLARY, but I wonder if someone isn't making a mountain out of a molehill and lying by omission, and we got suckered into picking up on it.

We have propaganda-mongers on our side, too, y' know.

1) she flew in a private jet.
2) Martha's Vineyard (island) to Nantucket..

Try it with a straight finger, the middle one.
