On Sunday, November 17th, Donald Trump Jr. shared a photo featuring President-elect Donald Trump alongside Robert F. Kennedy, House Speaker Mike Johnson, and Elon Musk aboard Trump's private jet. The group was seen enjoying McDonald's with the caption "Make America Healthy Again starts TOMORROW." This post gained significant attention due to Kennedy's recent nomination as Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS). Known for his criticism of ultra-processed foods, Kennedy's presence in the image stirred conversation.

The photograph captured the group on Trump's Boeing 757 business jet, commonly referred to as Trump Force One. According to JetSpy, the aircraft departed from Palm Beach International Airport and arrived at LaGuardia International Airport in New York City on Saturday evening. The purpose of their trip was to attend UFC 309 at Madison Square Garden.

After the event concluded, Trump Force One returned to West Palm Beach early Sunday morning. Details about the flight indicate it left New York shortly after 2:00 AM and landed around 4:30 AM.

Trump Force One has been a key asset for Donald Trump during his campaigns. The aircraft is a Boeing 757-200 first manufactured in 1991. Initially owned by Sterling Airways in Denmark, it changed hands several times before becoming part of DJT Operations in June 2011.

Throughout this year alone, JetSpy reports that Trump's jet has completed 272 flights totaling approximately 450 hours of flight time.
