Suppose they cut out the middle man and Qatar donated the plane directly to the Trump library. Would that be legal? |
Did you object to the newly-minted "artist" Hunter Biden's tens of millions of dollars worth of sales (that we know of) to wealthy domestic and foreign interests with government dealings while Biden was still in office? |
It’s another feather in his fat headed hat. Epstein plane, no problem. Terrorist plane, you betcha! |
Hunter Biden, who has been an artist for decades, and who everyone, including his father, admits is failure of a human, received $1.5 million worth of paintings over 4 years. And at least the buyers got decent paintings. But yes, it's terrible behavior. As usual, Trump is 100x worse than everyone else. Quantity has a quality all its own. This is $400M in one day!! In exchange for nothing (except whatever Trump steals from the US to give them), and just one of many, many bribes Donald Trump has directly accepted, plus what he has embezzled from the US (including tens of of millions of dollars in golf resort fees). https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2025/mar/11/no-ones-buying-hunter-bidens-terrible-paintings-any-more-i-wonder-why |
I like how even when MAGA inflates a Democrats crimes by 10x in scale, it's still only 10% of what Trump did. |
It seems so insane that your brain is so broken that you compare this to the things that the Trump crime family is involved in. I feel kind of bad for you because this kind of bizarre and magical thinking probably affects you in other ways in your life. |
He was not Pres |
He won't be able to use it because it will not have the security device of US Air Force planes for president or ex presidents. |
It sounds like you objected to Hunter receiving payment for his work. Logically you would be furious about Trump receiving a plane directly from a foreign government, but I’m guessing you’re cool with it. |
Who knows what evil lurks in Middle Eastern States that hate the US? |
The government is going to pay for security and telecommunications improvements, which will take years. So we’ll invest tens of millions or more for a plane the government will use for one year or so. Someone call DOGE about this waste, fraud, and abuse. |
It’s funny that people get outraged by this but don't have much to say about Israel and AIPAC literally purchasing nearly every representative of the US govt, including the president, for the last 50 years. |
The Boeing delivered Air Force One is expected in 2027 (previously projected for 2029.) Trump wants a new plane this year. It’s frivolous spending for something that is already being built and will be gifted to him… I mean “his library” in a few years. |
DP. Agreed it was unseemly of Hunter, but your math ain’t mathing. Hunter’s take was infinitely smaller than the Trump/Kushner rackets, which add up to billions. “Hunter Biden’s paintings have sold for a total of approximately $1.5 million, with 10 buyers purchasing his artwork through the Georges Bergès Gallery. Under the agreement with the gallery, Hunter Biden received 60% of the sales, while the gallerist took 40%. This means Hunter Biden’s earnings from these sales were around $900,000. However, his tax returns from the first two years of gallery representation reported a gross income of $130,984 from art sales, suggesting additional expenses or deductions may have reduced his net income. Sales have significantly declined since late 2023, with only one painting sold for $36,000 after that period.”7(https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/01/23/hunter-biden-paintings-sold-15-million/)[](https://www.nytimes.com/2024/06/05/arts/hunter-biden-art-sales.html)[](https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2025/mar/11/no-ones-buying-hunter-bidens-terrible-paintings-any-more-i-wonder-why) |
