The plane will be the albatross around his neck--particularly when HE has to pay the ongoing costs of maintaining and operating it.

That may be part of the reason he wants a new personal plane. His 757 is getting old, and he mostly let the maintenance go during his first term. I'm sure it was a bit expensive to get it up and flying again back in Jan 2021.

And by making it not "his plane" but belonging to the "Trump library", he can pawn off all the operating costs on the library foundation. Which is mostly to be expected, anyway. That foundation will be like his previous charity - a source of funds to loot and pillage for his personal use.

Besides, the library itself doesn't need to be anything more than a large bathroom with a gold toilet and boxes of his archives strewn around.
