Donald Trump doesn't like the feminine blue color of Air Force One that dates to Jacqueline Kennedy's redesign in the 1960s
Daily Mail: Trump wants new Air Force One to trade iconic light blue 'Jackie Kennedy' paint job for bolder 'more American' colors – and demands bigger bed to match his own personal plane
* Boeing is building a pair of 747 aircraft for use as the next Air Force One planes
* Trump doesn't like the robin's-egg blue exterior that Jackie Kennedy chose 55 years ago and wants something bolder; one presidential historian is outraged
* Trump also wants a bigger bed than the narrow fold-out sofa the plane has now
* The 757 he owns personally has a stateroom with a full bed
* Delivery of the new aircraft won't happen until at least January 2021 so Trump will have to win re-election to enjoy the upgrade

Trump derisively calls the hue a 'Jackie Kennedy color' and wants something that 'looks more American,' according to a report on the Axios news website.
