The real value of President Trump's acceptance of a “palace in the sky” of $ 400 million, a super luxurious boeing 747-8 Gift, er, gift, of the Royal Family of Qatar rich in oil, could be in what reveals to his American companions about his unprecedented and unprecedented wealth and his traps.
After all, most Americans fight to understand the open leverage of the Trump family of the presidential influence, especially when it comes to the complex world of cryptocurrency. Several agreements have turned Trump into a “cryptographic billionaire”, in the phrase of the Wall Street Journal, in a matter of months. The eyes of the Americans also glaz in the complicated and lucrative Brand offers with foreign investors anxious for slapping Trump's name about Hotels, residential towers and golf fields resortespecially in the Middle East, thus winning with the most powerful person in the world.
“The golden age … for triumphs” was the holder Last week in Axios, successfully turning Trump's inaugural promise, “a golden age for the United States”, in his head.
Now, finally, Trump is making it easier for everyone to understand their corruption. Who cannot smell the stench of taking a deceived jet of a foreign government anxious to cure the United States, and in particular Qatar, that Trump, that Trump denounced In your first mandate for your financing of Hamas and Hezbollah terrorist groups?
Even Republicans unleashed their languages to ask This Trumpian transaction, together with the famous-biblical-benales of Maga, Ben Shapiro and Laura Loomer. “If this were Biden, we would be furious,” Nikki Haley correctly wrote In social networks. Critics from all over the spectrum rushed to name the plane: Swamp Force One, Gift Force One, Hamas Force One.
And who cannot see the hypocrisy of this allegedly populist president, who recently suggested that American girls sacrifice dolls for their tariffs, stunned On Tuesday, A Sean Hannity, aboard Air Force One, on how his presidential aircraft “much smaller and less impressive” looks in poor condition, next to the new and brilliant 747 of Saudi Arabia, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates, the three Petroes states that visit this week.
“It is enraged because its second term begins flying in the same airplanes that age that once transported President George Hw Bush” in the early 1990s, The New York Times reported In February. Boo-Hoo.
The violent reaction about the promised generosity of Qatar has clearly irritated a president who is surrounded by flatterers, facilitators and a republican congress that he fulfills in this second term, and is not used to being attached. For days after ABC News broke the story of the plane on Sunday, Trump assaulted his “stupid” critics. “Why does our military, and therefore, our taxpayers, are forced to pay hundreds of millions of dollars when they can get it for free?” wrote In the social networks of Saudi Arabia on Wednesday.
“It would have to be stupid to believe that a $ 400 million plane, offered by a foreign government, is 'free',” the former Obama advisor, David Axelrod, counteracted In X.
Exactly. In addition, Jatar Jet would actually cost hundreds of millions of taxpayers after it was checked by insects and would transform it into a command center in the air capable of resisting missile attacks and nuclear explosion consumption. I am skeptical, it will once take possession.
But let the plane battery continue, Trump deserves it, if this simple scandal helps Americans to focus on how completely the presidency for the self -enhance is exploited. In his first term, Trump and his family were relatively careful to avoid the appearance of conflicts of interests involving foreign investments. (“Relatively” is doing a lot of work there).
No more.
Even Trump's Middle East trip is all business, the country and, what is important, his, despite the agitation in Gaza and Yemen. In his previous mandate, Trump's first state visit also went to the region; Since then, the sovereign funds of the wealth of Saudi Arabia, Abu Dhabi and Qatar have planted Trump's investment firm Jared Kushner with a reported $ 4.8 billion.
Before the trip, Eric Trump, who directs the Trump organization, advanced the work of some species: he entertained the countries that his father would soon visit promoting family cryptography and real estate companies. In Dubai it was the center of the stage of the announcement that a company backed by Abu Dhabi would finance an agreement Using $ 2 billion In digital coins of the Trump cryptocurrency business, reaping hundreds of millions of dollars in family rates. More agreements of this type are underway.
In Qatar, Eric Trump observed how a government official signed the paperwork for a Golf course with the Trump brand and luxury villas complexTo be built by a Saudi company. It is one of several of these projects in the region. Meanwhile, Donald Trump Jr. was jumping between Hungary, Romania, Serbia and Bulgaria, prospeating with speeches paid on the “business vision of Trump 2025” and visiting foreign officials and politicians.
The family formed its cryptocurrency company, World Liberty Financialjust before the elections and it's already A global forceWith foreigners in abundance investing in him in offers for the president of the president. As the “Cryptography Defender” of the company, Trump regularly urns people to buy their digital tokens; next week, The Cen will In one of his golf courses with the 220 main buyers of his $ Trump memecoin. Meanwhile, as president, he is using his official powers to stimulate the industry. He has signed Executive orders that promote crypto fixed a cryptographic president of the Bag and Securities Commission and closed The Government's Crypto Crime Task Force.
No less than the editorial board of Wall Street Journal deranged In January, Trump, by blurring cryptographic livestock and the presidency, was “inviting problems to what seems a markedly poor trial.” Absolutely. And that problem, legal, political and ethical, could be much worse than the rage on a $ 400 million plane for a king.
