Can President Trump accept a $400 million gifted jet from Qatar? Some Democratic and Republican lawmakers are calling for an ethics investigation saying the luxury jet violates the constitution's emoluments clause that bans presidents from accepting gifts from foreign governments without congressional approval.

The Qatari prime minister and minister of foreign affairs dismissed controversy surrounding President Donald Trump’s plan to accept from his country a Boeing 747-8 to be used initially as Air Force One,

“The Boeing 747 is being given to the United States Air Force/Department of Defense, NOT TO ME! It is a gift from a Nation, Qatar, that we have successfully defended for many years,” Trump said in a post on his social media platform, Truth Social, late on Tuesday, May 13.
