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.
Hope he paid the 10% tarrif on that $400 mil plane being shipped here from another country lol
I saw it in some xitter screenshot. The tariff was the 5.5 billion golf course on his name.
Tariffs for thee, not for me.
Maybe we will get lucky and he’ll invite musk and other billionaire backers into the plane for its first official flight, at which point Boeing plane does what it does best coupled with a crippled FAA… one can dream.
I would like that. Reminds me of that time when 16 Russian admirals bit the dust due to their grift…
Corrupt piece of shit.
He ain’t got no mind to lose.
First of all, he is not “losing his mind”. You cannot lose what you already lost decades ago.
I’d go even further. You can’t lose what you’ve never had.
Of course he cannot accept it. It is not American made. We know American first. And then think of all the tariffs he would need to pay for it!
747-8…
not American made
No…that’s not the problem.
So…is anyone not thinking that the plane is absolutely chock full of spying devices? I mean sure Trump is too stupid to think of it as anything other than a tribute to his greatness but is there a single sane person there?
Oh, this jet is going to have more bugs than a rainforest. It will be hilarious and compromising.
And just wait until he starts keeping classified documents in the airplane lavatory next to the photocopier.
i dont think you need to bug trumps planes, he has a big mouth and will say anything for money.
There probably is, hence “bipartisan critics”
No need for spying devices, he’s for sale they can just buy the info they need.
I can’t remember did I actually read it or hallucinated it, but I remember something about trump “selling” (auctioned?) “dinner with Trump” events and most of the tickets are bought out by “foreign influence”. He is clearly selling “chance to influence trump over dinner” tickets knowingly.
Yea the auction ended yesterday.
The ol’ Trojan plane trick…gets em’ everytime.
One man’s beautiful gift is almost everyone else’s blatant corruption.
Alternative headline: “Spoiled child throws tantrum when told No.”
Trump is a disgrace
Trump is a insider threat.

What the fuck? Trump ordered new AF1 and 2 from Boeing not long ago.
1 is used for secret communications with RUSSIA, msb, and qatari.
I am kinda hoping that Grand Theft Aviation happens, with AOC and Bernie leading Free America from those two jets.
Loses his mind? Well, that’s redundant.
Can’t lose what you never had 🙂
No it’s impossible
But I waaaant it!
Don’t…care…how…
I want it NOW!
People just aren’t considering the arguments in favor of accepting it, such as how cool it would be to receive what might be the biggest bribe in the history of bribery.
Is 400 million more than Kushner got from the Saudis for his apartment buildings?
There’s sadly been much bigger bribes.
Even within his family.
It’s certainly the biggest one a president has openly accepted. By, like, 400 million dollars.
I was thinking the biggest single item.
Depends. Is the 2 billion deal for classified information one item, or divided by bits of intel?
It likely also has the best always-on one-way communication link to Qatar that money can buy.
the biggest bribe in the history of bribery.
Didn’t somewhere get a large wooden horse once?
Wait… The plane is transparent? Wow! We should accept that sucker like now and figure out how they did it! LOL.
Wonder womans plane.
Trump is Wonder Woman
I hear the wonder lasso is just 3mm long and looks like a mushroom.
Those Amazon’s have some good tech.
Transparent Aluminum
That’s a thing and it’s dope.
Computer, computer
I got some. McMaster sells it as transparent ceramic.
Sapphire is basically transparent Aluminum and it is used now for strong clear glass, just in small sizes.
