Trump to accept luxury jet from Qatar's royal family. Is this right or wrong?

President Donald Trump is poised to accept a luxury Boeing 747-8 jumbo jet from the Qatari royal family that will be converted as the new Air Force One.

In essence, 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. "It so bothers the Crooked Democrats that they insist we pay, TOP DOLLAR, for the plane. Anybody can do that!" Trump said. "The Dems are World Class Losers!!!"

Attorney General Pam Bondi and Trump's top White House lawyer, David Warrington, concluded it would be "legally permissible" for the jet to be donated as long as it is transferred to Trump’s presidential library before his term ends.

Seems like a pretty obvious bribe.

Did you bribe your mother on Mother's Day?

@sree251 My mother is not a corrupt leader and I am not a foreign government. That has nothing to do with anything. And pretending it is the same is dishonest to the point of insulting people's intelligence.

My mother is not a corrupt leader and I am not a foreign government.

Basically, it is a relationship between two parties. Your perception of your mother is as questionable as your perception of Trump. Foreign governments are people in relationship. The US Government has given billions in aid to other countries.

@sree251 Again, Can we please stop pretending blatant corruption is just people being nice to each other.

You are right about the US giving billions to other countries. But none of that has ever been without strings attached. And pretending otherwise is again factually wrong and dishonest.

@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow

lol that's a bribe.

Being nice to one another is bribery?

@sree251 That is the entire basis of your argument that this is not bribery.
