Is a Luxury Boeing 747 Jet Gifted From Qatar to President Trump Going Too Far?

I don't know about all of you but I would prefer a big, beautiful new jet made in USA for Air Force One, no matter how long the wait. After all, isn't there a BIG push for Made In America right now or am I missing something? The latest is that Qatar wants to give a FREE Air Force One replacement valued at U.S. $400 million to President Trump. No strings attached. Got that?

Yet, the Constitution prohibits federal officials from accepting things of value, or “emoluments,” from foreign governments without congressional approval.

Democratic Senator Brian Schatz of Hawaii said, "Schatz said "it really should go without saying, but no president should be accepting a $400 million gift from a foreign country. It is gross, it is reckless, it is corrupt, and the outrage and condemnation especially on the Republican side should be universal.”

What's your feeling?
