"As President Donald Trump signed an executive order to lower drug prices, an ABC reporter questioned the gift of a $400 million plane from Qatar which he is set to receive.
“What do you say to people who view that luxury jet as a personal gift to you?” The reporter asked. “Why not leave it behind?”
Trump cut the reporter off. “You are ABC fake news, right? Only ABC would — well, a few of you would ask that question.”
He added, “Let me tell you. You should be embarrassed asking that question. They're giving us a free jet. I can say no, no, no, don't give us — I want to pay you a bill again, or 400 million or whatever it is, or I can say thank you very much.”"

No. Just fuck no.
Shit doesn't work that way in a respectable, honorable, constitutional, law-abiding democracy.
This orange, arrogant, money-hungry prick accepted a nearly half billion dollar bribe from the government of Qatar in the form of a royally decked-out Boeing 747 jumbo jet for his personal AND OFFICIAL use, and if Joe Biden, or Barack Obama, or Bill Clinton or Jimmy Carter, or any other prior sitting Democratic president, or even Republican president for that fucking matter, had EVER involved themselves in such a stinking, rotten, sleazy fucking deal like this one with the Qatari oil sheikhs, they would have been summarily impeached and run out of D.C.
And he is doing this traitorous shit from INSIDE the American people's White House, no less.
The Americans who continue to support Donald Trump are at a crossroads. They either wise up and accept the reality that they have been supremely played by one of the slickest, most ostentatious con-artists to ever ply the trade, or they continue to align themselves as willing accessories to his ever expanding corruption and treachery, only to eventually be treated with the same hand of 'understanding' that treats all supporters of fascism when their fascist idols face inevitable defeat.
If anyone "should be embarrassed" it should be those in this country who despite the growing mountain of evidence that Drumpf is selling this country right out from under all our American lives, continue to support this thoroughly corrupted, casino-bankrupting, pussy-grabbing, coup-plotting, convicted felon and adjudicated rapist.
