Schumer on Qatar’s Gift of Jet to Trump: ‘It’s an Issue of Bribery’

EXCERPT:

SCHUMER: “No, this is an issue of outright bribery and a serious issue of national security as well, to let any foreign country ‘donate’ a 747 that is the presidential plane, Air Force One, that’s the most sophisticated plane in the world, more than any other plane, and there are huge security issues if someone else donates it. In fact, if this happens, and I pray to God that it doesn’t, because it’s such a security risk, they’d have to take apart the entire plane down to the screws and nuts and bolts and see if any listening devices were implanted in it. So it’s a huge national security issue. It’s an issue of bribery. This is probably the biggest, I’m certain it’s the biggest ‘gift’ that has ever been given to a sitting president. And, as your person said there, not only is there no free lunch, there’s no free Air Force One.”
