Trump's plan to accept luxury jet from Qatar

During President Trump's first term, the idea caused special interests and governments in his hotels to buy meals and booking rooms, legal and ethical alarms about the potential for corruption.

Mr. Trump's second term makes these concerns look trivial.

The administration's plan to accept a luxury jet of $ 400 million from the Qatarian royal family is only the latest example of an increasingly no-calcified atmosphere in Washington under Trump 2.0. The famous transaction manager can not only use the plane in office, but is also expected to be transferred to his presidential foundation as soon as he leaves the White House.

The second Trump administration shows a striking contempt for one -time norms of adequacy and for traditional legal and political guardrails within the framework of the public service. It is clearly encouraged, partly due to the decision of the Supreme Court last year, which president granted immunity for their official acts, and due to the political reality that Mr. Trump is held by Trump at the Republican Party, he does not have to fear an elevation.

The opening committee of Mr. Trump has thrown 239 million US dollars from wealthy business interests in the hope of at least avoiding its favor or at least avoiding its anger, and the previous record, 107 million US dollars, which were set by its first committee in 2017, does not exist that a quarter of billion dollars can spend on dinner and events.

Before he returned to office, Mr. Trump also started a Meme cryptocurrency, $ Trump, which enables crypto investors around the world to enrich him. His family has already made millions for transaction fees, and its own reserve of the digital coin is worth billions on paper.

This month, Mr. Trump continued by selling the coin through the auction of personal access to him and announced that top buyers would get a private dinner on one of his golf courses and that the largest owners would get a tour of the White House. The competition has aroused a new interest in the coin, although it has no intrinsic value.
