Donald Trump Head In The Clouds Over Qatar's $400M Jumbo Jet Gift!!!
Donald Trump’s online, bragging about a "flying palace" -- a luxury plane gifted from Qatar’s royal family slated to serve as one of the presidential Air
Force One fleet of jumbo jets ... but it’s causing a stir, since accepting foreign gifts like that is legally questionable.
The $400 million Boeing 747-8 -- AKA the world’s biggest plane -- could be Trump’s new Air Force One for the rest of his term ... and it’s being called
one of the priciest gifts ever from a foreign power to the U.S.
Trump posted on Truth Social: "So the fact that the Defense Department is getting a GIFT, FREE OF CHARGE, of a 747 aircraft to replace the 40 year old Air Force
One, temporarily, in a very public and transparent transaction, so bothers the Crooked Democrats that they insist we pay, TOP DOLLAR, for the plane. Anybody can
do that! The Dems are World Class Losers!!!"
The Trump admin’s already facing heat, as this plane would violate a constitutional ban on gifts from foreign governments. But, the White House and Justice
Department are arguing it’s not a gift to an individual, so it’s all good -- it's set to be transferred to the U.S. Defense Department, and would then
transfer to the ownership of Trump's presidential library foundation when his current term expires.
There are currently two Air Force One Boeing planes in use -- though one is in the shop for routine maintenance. The planes are custom-designed for security and
to allow the president to communicate across the globe at all times, and can be refueled mid-flight.
Trump is scheduled to fly to the region this week, with a stop in Qatar, where Donald's son Eric Trump recently completed a golf club deal in the country worth
$5.5 billion, ABC News reports.
It's unclear when the president would take possession of the proposed Qatar jet.

Qataris fund lots of terrorism and are repsonsible for people like Jolani in Syria. Also, while many Americans are struggling financially he is bragging about a
private jet. This is disgusting.
Why is Trump even fighting the Houthis? They are not attacking the USA and no Shia or Iranian group are attacking the USA or even Israel.

the peddling of influence at the trump administration is out of this world. i thought biden was bad, he makes biden look like a school boy.
the whole china tariff thing was an enormous pump and dump. people with 401ks lost their ass and those who knew the plan sat on the sidelines and bought low and
can now sell high.

@whiteguyinchinaTest Now Trump removed the sanctions off of Syria weeks
after an ethnic cleansing of the Alawite. Not to mention, all the Uyghur terrorists that Jolani allowed into the Syrian army. People so vile they even entered
hospitals to kill people. Trump is a dud. The only admirable person thing he has done is to stop the white coat waste with killings of the beagles and if
prescription drug prices are lowered.
Tariffs just hurt all the regular folks and the USA will still not reindustrialize. The sad thing is though, who are Trump’s opposition? There is really
nobody good challenging him. You either have the Dems who have become a joke of a party or you have the Never Trumper Lincoln Party folks led by a weirdo like
George Conway. These people mostly represent the neocon war hawk interests. Ideas popularized by the Bushes, Cheneys, and the late Senator John McCain. It will
take the USA years and several election cycles to put forth worthy leaders.
I think the main problem with this country is too many people feel they have to support a party or leader unconditionally. They create excuse after excuse for
Trump. It shouldn’t be that way. We should praise Trump only when he does good and criticize him when he does wrong. It should be that way for any politician.
Support their good policies and condemn their bad ones. Trump also is against certain policies of Biden’s that were ok policies just because Biden supported
them and that’s wrong. He destroyed the economy, people are broke, but he is suggesting garnishing wages for student loans while he got rid of the Save plan
which would have helped many people pay back their loans. I’m lucky to not have as much debt as most, but he has to recognize the people with the largest
student loan debts aren’t the liberal arts majors, but rather healthcare workers. This gets passed down to us because the workers necessitate high salaries to
pay off large loans with high interest while being able to afford other bills.
