🚨🇺🇸 “DOOMSDAY PLANE” SPOTTED LEAVING LAX
The presidential “Doomsday Plane” was spotted taxiing and departing LAX.
This aircraft is basically a flying command center built to keep the U.S. government running during a worst-case crisis, even if ground systems are hit.

Basically, this is the bird President Trump would travel in amid a nuclear war … so yeah, people are going bananas online.
The “Doomsday Plane” is actually one of several in a fleet of planes that is constantly on alert and usually in the air, can withstand a nuclear blast, and is protected against an electromagnetic pulse — or as the U.S. Air Force explains … “In case of national emergency or destruction of ground command and control centers, the aircraft provides a highly survivable command, control, and communications center to direct U.S. forces, execute emergency war orders, and coordinate actions by civil authorities.”
So far … there’s no official word as to why the plane is out and about — but the rare sighting has some people freaking out, assuming we’re on the brink of WWIII.
We’re out to the White House and Air Force for some answers … so far, no word back.
