  "account": "President Trump's scheduled journey to Texas was halted on Wednesday due to an inflatable emergency slide deploying on the tarmac of the new Air Force One gifted by Qatar. Workers were seen removing the slide after it had inflated and touched the ground, prompting the president to address reporters. He stated that the slide was being examined and that nothing was wrong with the safety feature. The White House confirmed that the president would continue using the old Air Force One for the interim while additional security enhancements were made to the new jet.",
