Original Note:
The statement about Trump flying Mandela ‘home after he was in jail’ is wrong. The plane was provided during Mandela’s U.S. tour in 1990, not immediately after his release. And not home. The organizers paid $130,000 to charter the plane, as reported by the Los Angeles Times. https://www.thegivingtrump.com/trump-rescues-nelson-mandela-unable-rent-plane/
