      Accept lavish gifts. Cut essential services. Tell Americans to suck it up.

      Gee, I wonder why people are pissed.

      Yeah, cmon America, that other government gave it to the POTUS as a gift for free! You know how corrupt autocratic middle eastern states just love to give the US President big beauty gifts—only because he’s such a great guy—they would never expect any kind of favors in return.

      If I’ve gotta settle for *two* dolls he can make due with *one* Air Force One

      This would be one of the easiest ways to get spied on and leak classified information.

      What an idiot.

      Maybe it’s the hypocrisy that he is telling people to go without while he’s enriching himself. I dunno. I may be crazy.

      Like taking candy from a baby.

      Not in the usual sense, like with ease. I mean he’s a fucking baby when he doesn’t get his way.

      Boo hoo, Diaper Don.

      How dare you call my crime a criminal act. That’s it, more tariffs for everyone.

      Are y’all waiting for someone else to do something? The French and many others would not have had any of this.

      Every single day he does something crazy. Everyday. I miss the days when you heard the odd thing a president did once in a while

      Meanwhile, it’s illegal to give kids a free meal and 5 pencils is all you get.

      > 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.“

      He’s bragging about an obvious bribe and blaming Democrats for calling him out on it.

      How does this not violate the Emoluments Clause?

      This shit doesn’t pass the smell test for several reasons.

      But first I want to point out that this is exactly why we roll our eyes at conservatives who brag about Trump „giving away his salary.“ It’s not the only reason of course, Trump has been exploiting his power and privilege to enrich himself at the expense of others throughout his entire life and career.

      That being said, if this whole thing was above board, Trump wouldn’t be ranting and raving on social media about it in the first place.

      Additionally, if this was kosher, The Trump administration wouldn’t be trying to find a loophole to make it „legally permissible.“ They argue that by transferring the plane to Trump’s presidential library, which is ridiculous on its face, it no longer amounts to a „personal gift,“ and instead becomes a „donation“ to a public institution. What a bunch of horse shit right?

      Also, if Trump really wanted to be transparent, he would seek Congressional consent for the gift/bribe, but he’s likely not going to do that because he’s been overstepping Congressional authority throughout his entire term. Kind of like how he vetoed the bipartisan war powers resolution that sought to end US military involvement in the Saudi coalition led war against Yemen. A coalition that Qatar once belonged to.

      Furthermore, this can be seen as a bribe because Trump has taken several actions throughout his presidencies that have directly benefitted the Qatari government.

      He’s provided Qatar with arms sales and diplomatic support in the past, including during the 2017 Gulf crisis.

      Not to mention, Qatar is home to the largest US military base in the Middle East, and the Trump administration has only expanded on this military relationship.

      Then there’s the unsurprising fact that Trump has expressed plans to develop real estate in Qatar, partnering the Trump organization with Qatari Dar, a real estate investment company, and DarGlobal, a luxury real estate developer whose HQ is in Dubai. And of course he’s tried to disguise this by offering to open up economic and trade channels between the US and Qatar, encouraging Qatari investments in the US and American businesses in Qatar.

      All this is to say, if it walks like a bribe and talks like a bribe, well…

      The joke is on him because no doubt there are numerous hidden cameras and listening devices built into that plane…. And probably a k*ll switch.
      This what happens when you choose complete morons like Hegsworth and Noem to be in charge of important security details.
