21. They say that will be a life size replica.

It's ridiculous anyway. The plane shown is smaller than a real 747 and probably more of a wish list than a serious proposal. It's important to note that he will be seeking "donations" largely after he's out of power.

He's really milking the bribery wagon on his ballroom, his arch, and general spending money to start collecting billions on this monument to himself. I have to admit though, that there is plenty of office space to store top secret documents for sale.
