Eyed Social Media User Slams Air Force One 'Library'
Key Points:

- The discovery came after White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt shared images of herself and President Trump aboard the plane, showcasing the bookshelf behind her.
- Critics mocked the fake books as symbolic of a perceived lack of reading among those on the plane, while others suggested the inauthentic setup was intended to reduce fuel costs.
- The new Air Force One, a retrofitted Boeing 747-800 gifted by Qatar, made its maiden voyage amid controversy and bipartisan opposition to the gift.
- President Trump has praised the aircraft as the "world's most luxurious plane" and reportedly intends to keep it after leaving office.
