This is very simple: Donald Trump cannot be allowed to take a $400 million “gift” from Qatar’s royal family. Congress needs to put a stop to this immediately, and we need a full independent investigation with both congressional hearings and the appointment of a special counsel.
We need to know what Trump agreed to do for a foreign government in exchange for this “flying palace.” We need to know whether this deal violates bribery laws or the Emoluments Clause of the Constitution. And we need to know exactly how taxpayer-funded lawyers at the Department of Justice and the White House counsel’s office decided this was okay, especially in light of Attorney General Pam Bondi’s history as a lobbyist for Qatar.
From the Founding Fathers on, Americans have made it clear we do not want our leaders to be for sale to the rest of the world. Right now, the White House is up for auction to the highest bidder. You would have to be a complete sucker to believe that Qatar is giving our president a luxury jet out of the goodness of their hearts. This is blatant corruption, right out in the open. Congress cannot stand by and let it happen. Act, or be complicit.
