I can only see one point of Trump doing this deal.

Spite.

He is still pissed off that his new livery design won't be part of the VC-25Bs, and he will now have his own jet that will be managed outside of normal channels, just so he can get a few photo ops as the first president to fly a private 747-800, that will probably be painted in the livery that he approved.

Of all the people who got to be president he feels like the one who wanted it the least.

He hates Camp David for fuck’s sake.
