Marine one crew wishes president would shut the fuck up already

Filed · 1540

WASHINGTON — Both Marine One pilots waiting on the White House South Lawn wish the President would shut the f--k up and get on the goddamn aircraft so they can power the f--king engines and get this heat going, sources close to the pilots confirmed.

The crew chief, who has been standing at the position of attention for 30 minutes while the president goes on about some bulls--t agreement with Russia, is also ready "to get this show on the road, get back to Quantico, and finish his Walking Dead binge," the source told Duffel Blog.
