"....on Wednesday, during an exclusive interview with ABC News, Trump showed his plan to swap the iconic sky blue-and-white paint job for a patriotic red, white and blue."

"We had different choices, here," Trump said, pointing to images he said he designed himself. "These are all slightly different."

[....IMO, the current paint scheme is classic scheme, known around the world. If the new AF1 looks anything like Trump's 757....]

Does it need a new paint job, if not he is wasting tax payer's money.

Theres no "it." The proposal is not for repainting the current plane, but for a needed replacement for the one that is scheduled to appear years in the future and be used by other presidents, not Trump.

The Official transportation of the President of the US having the colors red white and blue on it? We can't have that.
It does have blue. And white.

It's the red that would look stupid.

Its sleek but not remarkable--a dark blue underbelly, with a parallel red stripe and a white stripe, all running the length of the plane...plus a flag on the tail. You can see it on the link that was given in the original post. Scroll down to the second picture.

The current version looks like its supposed to be the plane of the president of Argentina, aside from the lettering. I wonder who came up with that?

Not really anything to rag POTUS about

'Regardless of whether Trump gets his way, one thing is for sure: he will have to wait. The new fleet won't be ready for takeoff until 2024.

"I'm doing that for other presidents," Trump said, "not for me."'​

So the flag looks tacky?
Flags and planes aren't the same thing. For vehicles I prefer a little more subtlety in the the design scheme.

And I'll be honest, the design of the U.S. flag isn't exactly my favorite (strictly speaking from a design standpoint only). I prefer more geometric and symmetrical designs for something like a flag but again, that's just me.
