President Trump represents America’s last best hope to restore what — if lost — may never be found again. And every single day for the next four years, when I walk into that White House to help President Trump, I will be doing it for you.

For those still stuck between one or more of the three for a particular economy flight, here's my best advice on how to choose. United's upgraded cabin is just as nice as Delta's, and I'd argue it's actually better with the Bluetooth option.
