“Agitator and, perhaps, insurrectionist, Alex Prettis stock has gone way down with the just released video of him screaming and spitting in the face of a very calm and under control ICE Officer, and then crazily kicking in a new and very expensive government vehicle, so hard and violent, in fact, that the taillight broke off in pieces. It was quite a display of abuse and anger, for all to see, crazed and out of control. The ICE Officer was calm and cool, not an easy thing to be under those circumstances! MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN.” @realDonaldTrump

Further, Canada is effectively prohibiting the sale of Gulfstream products in Canada through this very same certification process. If, for any reason, this situation is not immediately corrected, I am going to charge Canada a 50% Tariff on any and all Aircraft sold into the United States of America. Thank you for your attention to this matter!DONALD J. TRUMPPRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA” @realDonaldTrump

Gulfstream G500 and G600 have faced operational restrictions and extended certification procedures in Canada, but there is no verified evidence of a blanket, unjustified refusal as implied. Both the G700 and G800 models have recently achieved FAA and EASA…
