The article satirizes Donald Trump's potential acceptance of a $400 million Boeing 747-8 from the Qatari royal family as a gift for his future presidency. It critiques this deal as deeply problematic, questioning Trump's integrity and his supporters' reactions, who find it difficult to reconcile with his anti-corruption rhetoric. Additionally, it mocks the idea of a presidential library for Trump, suggesting it serves more as a euphemism for a disorganized storage of his documents.
Trump's inclination to accept a freebie plane from a foreign state has even given pause to some of his Maga faithful.
In many ways the most opaque thing about it is the notion that Trump is even planning a presidential library.
The merits of accepting this flying palace are invisible only to those who are stupid or incompetent, which means the emperor would literally be an idiot not to take it.
Trump calls this entire deal with a foreign government very transparent and I think we can probably agree on that.
