Summary

Trump lashed out at bipartisan critics after reports revealed he plans to accept a $400 million Boeing 747-8 jet from Qatar for use as Air Force One.

In a Truth Social post, Trump dismissed concerns as “world class losers” complaining about a transparent gift. Qatar stated the plane is under legal review between its Ministry of Defense and the Pentagon.

Critics, including Sen. Bernie Sanders, Sen. Chris Murphy, and Rep. Jamie Raskin, accused Trump of corruption and violating the Constitution.

Even allies like Laura Loomer led the MAGA pushback to the jet deal.

        It’s the same country that was/is bribing Eric Adams…

        They have so much oil money (exported 24 billion worth in 2022) that they just throw money at anyone that will take it.

        400 million just isn’t that much money to them where they need to have an immediate payout.

        They’re in the top 10 wealthiest royal families, and that’s just what legal money is on the books
