"Trump Force One" received a special send-off at New York's Laguardia Airport this morning.

Two Port Authority vehicles gave the Boeing 757 a "water salute," spraying massive hoses to form arches over the president-elect's aircraft while it taxied on the runway.

3. Why would they do this?

Is this standard procedure or were they just washing down the stink?

[Squinch]

6. Or is it a joke response to the story??

[Gore1FL]

7. It's an honor reserved typically for AF1 -- they did it in November after the election.

It's just hilarious in light of recent stories.

10. Good to know. Thanks.

Still think it's to wash down the stink.
Of the pee.

4. Assuming this is real,

Do they plan to do this frrquently? Every time he departs?

[Gore1FL]

9. I would think so. It's actually an honor

This was done in November after the election. It's just rather retrospectively side-splitting.

[Squinch]

5. Wait, wait, wait! Are they trolling his PLANE???? That's awesome!

[Gore1FL]

8. It's from just post election.

Per the article, "The water salute is typically done for Air Force One, visiting world leaders and military officials."

It's just freakishly hilarious!

[Squinch]

12. Oh.... I'm disappointed... moping a little. But the image is a total keeper.

15. Stranger than fiction!

16. The Daily Show has a gif on their facebook page where the water is yellow.

Not sure how to save the gif and post it here. It's done well.

[Eleanors38]

17. That gold water looks thin. I'll be glad to contribute.

[SayItLoud]

18. Make it Yellow

Please some savvy tech person make those water stream YELLOW and re post, then we can make it go viral.

[cwydro]

19. This is normal on special occasions.

I've seen it at airports numerous times.

No folks, so sorry, nothing to do with "pee-gate."

[Iggo]

25. Still, dripping with irony.

[MrModerate]

21. No irony in this picture. n/t
