Acting legend Michael Caine, who’s become known for his slashing brevity on X, may have outdone himself on Monday.

Given the two-time Oscar winner’s previous terse take on Donald Trump ― “Trump calm down” ― we’re thinking his latest is a three-letter commentary on the president’s problematic intention to accept a free Air Force One replacement from Qatar.
Others on X thought so too. But not everyone. The “Alfie” and “Educating Rita” star got all kinds of reactions. Many recited lyrics from the 1973 song “Jet” from Paul McCartney & Wings. Some even guessed (or hoped) he was invoking a certain woebegone New York football team. And some just wanted to express admiration for the 92-year-old icon’s mastery of a 21st-century art form.
“Oh Michael this is so you,” one fan wrote.
