A luxury jet gift from Qatar. $TRUMP crypto. Foreign real estate deals. A guide to Trump's biggest corruption concerns.

Earlier this week, President Trump confirmed on Truth Social that his administration plans to accept what may be the most lavish and expensive foreign gift in U.S. history: a $400 million luxury jet from the Qatari royal family that Trump intends to use as Air Force One for the rest of his term and transfer to his presidential foundation after leaving office.

Defending the move, which was first reported by ABC News, Trump insisted Monday that only a “stupid person” would “turn down that kind of an offer.”

Yet even some of Trump’s supporters have questioned whether accepting the jet would violate the Constitution’s ban on foreign ‘emoluments’ — amounting, in effect, to a “bribe.”

Emboldened by last year’s Supreme Court ruling granting presidents immunity for their official actions, Trump has used his second stint in the Oval Office to openly enrich himself and advance his personal interests in ways that make the ethical complaints of his first term look quaint in comparison, experts say — while eliminating key protections against influence peddling and firing officials tasked with rooting out corruption.
