  Look in any mirror and ask YOURSELF that same question - everyone else knows the answer...

What is the MIddle East getting in return for their crypto/airplane gifts to Trump?

 

Today he lifted restrictions on their access to our advanced AI chips.     I think that might be alot bigger quid-pro-quo than the made up shit up Biden and Burisma.    But then again - I might be suffering from TDS or common sense or something.

Seems pretty clear to me.  Another fake news story

 

President Donald Trump said he would not use a luxury jet being offered by the Qatari government after leaving office amid criticism over his administration’s consideration of using the plane as the next Air Force One. “It’s not a gift to me; it’s a gift to the Department of Defense,” Trump told reporters at the White House on Monday.


And of course, Trump always tells the truth about what he's going to do.

 

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Despite my earlier lengthy diatribe on "gifts", I'm also recalling a controversy regarding one or more 'exotic' pieces given to Obama, and probably some to-and-from head of state gifts, something of cultural value at least, a rare piece of porcelain or other art, something representative of the giving country.  It seemed to be expected of heads of state to exchange such things when visiting or received a visit from another HOS, probably procedurally accounted for in some way.  Those always made the news, tho I don't recall anything equivalent to a jet plane being the gift.  Who/what is the official 'recipient' and for what purpose?

A cultural artifact is given to the country, not to the chief executive. It's not as if the CE will use it personally, or sell it, or anything like that. My recollection is that those artifacts went straight to the Smithsonian. The recipient was the United States.

 

Contrast that with a hyper-luxury plane that Trump can wallow in while AND after he's in office. It's for his PERSONAL use, not official use, since there already is an Air Force One.

Here's Haley stating the  obvious, our local MAGA folks have no idea what she talking about. She's just dropping some truth.

Boilerboob, angry Charles, stupid Tom, and Millerscum spent four years whining about some kind of fantasy skulduggery involving Hunter and his mystical magical laptop. They wailed and moaned and bitched, and tried to make their imaginary nonsense equivalent to the real crimes of Trump & Co. If Biden had done ANY of the dozens of grossly corrupt things that Trump has done just since he began his second term, they would have posted and posted and posted here until they exploded like overripe zits.

 

Soooooo...a bit of a double standard. Scumbag MAGA hypocrisy.

That's the thing about MAGAs. It isn't just that they believe in an obsolete and illogical political philosophy. It isn't just that they worship a traitor, rapist, and thief. It's that they're double standard-using hypocrites.
