I thought it was a bit odd that his staff could find a clean, white garbage truck with a Trump decal while they were 30 min from landing. But you know, his staff can do anything.

I’m certain we are living in a Truman show!

I wondered about that too, wrote a time-line of the events for myself, then saw the Trump video in which he's on the plane, says his staff, some 30 min from landing, makes the suggestion. They must already have been placing calls for trucks before asking him. A brand-new, white truck! And.....on that thought--Roman candidates, time of Cicero, so 1st Century B.C. [don't know about earlier or later] when campaigning for office and "buying votes" (which they did), wore a specially whitened (with fuller's chalk) toga, kind of blinding white --adjective for which is candidus, a, um---garment the toga candidata---from whence comes our term for the guy running for office. So the Trump team winds up with, not a brown (my WhiteTail) nor a green (J.P. Mascaro) nor a red garbage truck....but a shining white truck. Just imagine. What are the odds? Says the Latin teacher.

Because the white hats are the good guys and the white knights are the good guys. So the color white, of course.

It would seem so. I expect they had it lined up before ever bringing it up to President Trump. So there was a lot more time than 30 minutes. Having worked for a 2 Star Admiral, you don’t suggest anything until you know you can do it. Otherwise, you’re fired ;-)
