“Trump defends the prospect of Qatar gifting him a plane to use as Air Force One”​

“Trump defended the idea — what would amount to a president accepting an astonishingly valuable gift from a foreign government — as a fiscally smart move for the country.”

“Meanwhile, administration officials, anticipating ethics concerns, have prepared an analysis arguing that accepting the plane would be legal, according to ABC. The Constitution’s Emoluments Clausebars anyone holding government office from accepting any present, emolument, office or title from any “King, Prince, or foreign State,” without congressional consent.”

“Trump intends to convert the Qatari aircraft into a plane he can fly on as president, with the Air Force planning to add secure communications and other classified elements to it. But it will still have more limited capabilities than the existing planes that were built to serve as Air Force One, as well as two other aircraft currently under construction, according to a former U.S. official”


Another part of the Constitution the Red Hat Club supposedly loves being flushed down the drain by their Messiah, those Founding Fathers must have been on dope adding an Emoluments Clause to the document

And Qatar is doing all this out of the kindness of their heart

What happened to America first? It’s the old, “don’t do as I do, do as I say”

Obama or Biden would have been impeached for being gifted a custom 747 from a foreign Muslim government.
 
It's Not a personal gift....
"Officials from the Middle Eastern country said the gift was between governments rather than a personal present to Trump, noting the plane was being given by the Qatari Ministry of Defense to the Pentagon. The Boeing 747-8 jet will be retrofitted to make it suitable for use as the presidential plane, including the addition of heightened security features." https://www.newsweek.com/donald-trump-qatar-plane-air-force-one-2070761

It was given to Trump. As president, he cannot take it as is. It has to be fitted to serve as Air Force 1. After being kicked out of office, Trump will have to pay taxes if he takes the plane.

So this is between governments. Sounds more like a bribe to me.​

Donald Trump Will Get To Keep Qatar Jet Even After He Leaves Office​

“Not a personal gift?”

So Trump getting use of the jet, and upon leaving office, takes the plane with him, and it is not a personal gift?
 
Let's see, Over Mothers Day, Trump got more acomplished than Brandon did in four years and the all the alt-lefties can do is bitch because Boeing dropped the ball on replacing Air Force One and Trump found a solution.

Trumpism as work. LOL

Is the Pentagon using the plane? Will the Pentagon ever use the plane? Does the Pentagon keep the plane when Trump exits?

It is a bribe, or given the Hotel deal Trump just made with Qatar, plus all the crypto shenanigans flowing thru the Middle East, who knows, but it definitely shits on Article 1, Section 9, Paragraph 8 of the Constitution
