Bill Maher defends Trump’s use of decoy plane amid assassination threat

Bill Maher has expressed understanding regarding Donald Trump’s decision to use a decoy plane following a credible assassination threat in Turkey. According to reports, Trump avoided potential danger by leaving Air Force One in a catering truck and departing on a secret jet, while Marco Rubio, White House staffers, and members of the press remained on the decoy aircraft.

Maher suggested that the move was likely directed by the Secret Service due to threats traced back to the Iranian government. During a discussion, Andrew Cuomo supported this view, stating that most presidents would follow Secret Service advice in such circumstances and would likely have taken similar actions to ensure their safety.
