". . . The nation’s maiden plane voyage by the Wright Brothers didn’t occur until 1903. Trump referred to that flight elsewhere in his speech. . . Twitter foes were doing loop-de-loops over the blunder. “Even back then, there were always flight delays on Colonial Airways, since there were no airplanes,” quipped one wag. Some takedowns involved colonial fighters writing home to lovers about being stranded on airplanes that didn’t yet exist. . .The hashtag Revolutionary War Airport Stories was quickly trending on Twitter.

Apparently we took La Guardia Airport from the Brits in 1776 and have been trying to give it back for 243 years.

Dear @realDonaldTrump, It just occurred to me that you & my great, great, great grandpappy were on the same flight in 1812. The family stories of the emergency landing during the red flare are absolutely riveting. Just curious, what time do you start sundowning? xoBette #BeBette

My Dearest Rose,
I'm afraid I must be the bearer of bad news. My flight has already been delayed a fortnight, and I fear it will be longer. The army has shut down the airport and the airplane will not be invented for 6 score and 7 years from now.#RevolutionaryWarAirportStories

My dear Frederick, They continue to hold us prisoner. All we have been given to eat are small portions of miniature pretzels, and no ale or mead. They torture us with stories of some mythical being called a “beverage cart,” yet it does not appear. #RevolutionaryWarAirportStories

Adding “Airports” to the text of the TelePrompTer speech on War of 1812? Well played Deep State. Well played. #TrumpParade #Worst4thEver

Did he say the army took over the AIRPORTS during the Revolutionary War? I rewound and play it twice. #TrumpParade

That moment when Hamilton and Lafayette seized our airports was truly a surprise move. I thought they were riding through a marsh.

Dearest Jebediah,
Our flight has been delayed again. Waiting on the tarmac, our supplies of honey roasted peanuts and Fresca are almost depleted. We are talking about rebellion against first class. Please tell the children I love them.#RevolutionaryWarAirportStories

Even back then, there were always Flight Delays on Colonial Airways, since there were no airplanes. The good news was the Baggage Claim lines were always short. Just ask Wilbur Ross who worked there/#TrumpParade #IndependenceDay

@jfreewright
"Named after”?
"Cornwallis **of** Yorktown"?
"Manned the amperts”?
“Ranned the ramparts"?
"Took over the airports”? (Wright brothers born 1867 & 1871)
"Fort McHendry”?
What do you think?
