America has the best politicians money can buy.
- Al Capone -
It’s Israeli lobby steal from 🇺🇸 then buy American politicians with the same money.
I'm confident The house and the Senate will do NOTHING... Thats the only thing certain these days... We are on our own..
The plane will belong to America you idiot
These Republicans are the same ones that said Hillary couldn't accept a $400 necklace.
Not to mention 10 percent for the Big Guy. Which they could never even prove.
And the dems who make $170k a year but made millions a year
@@lancenorton1117- Yes, because the FBI lied about the laptop.

Set of hypocrites
The double standard is jaw-dropping. Can you imagine how Tommy and Josh would be literally sputtering righteous indignation if Obama had even hinted at accepting a plane from an Arab nation?
Yet he didn't take it........"I don't know Davey"
Hey, brainchild, it was a gift to the United States Government, not a bogus shell company! Bribes are done behind closed doors, not out in the open. Your gullibility and hypocrisy are at a whole other level!
You don't know that.
@@czarcastic1458We know exactly that. Republicans were foaming at the mouth because Obama wore a tan suit. We still hear - what about Hillary’s emails, Biden’s son’s laptop, pelosi’s insider trading. But never about Donald Trump’s sons and Son-IL’s ties to Russia, never about Bush’s replica of Hillary’s emails, 34felonies….. we know exactly how they would have reacted if this was a democrat.
@@czarcastic1458🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 You funny. Tell another one! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
First of all, there are TWO Air Force One jets. They are both 35 years old, not 40 like Tubberville said. Just because the planes are 35 years old does not mean the tech onboard is 35 years old. They are constantly modified, refitted, updated and modernized.
Boeing had a contract to update both ship sets with new wiring and machined parts as of a few years ago. AFAIK that hasn't been canceled
They began construction in 1986…first flight in 1987, so close.
@nadogrl They have been operational since 1990.
@@macharper8214- Duh, I know, that’s why I said “close”…And the new ones won’t be ready for 2-3 more years.
@nadogrl 1990 was EXACTLY 35 years ago so I was not "close" I was exactly right.
Accepting gifts from a country that support Hamas but deporting students they claim their Hamas sympathizes that’s ridiculous
No it isn’t
Explain@@klausthedog9670
I guess not anymore after he accepts that plane🤣🤣
@@klausthedog9670Brilliant rebuttal.
It makes perfect sense when you realize trumps acts entirely in self-interest
So indict these Senators and Congress members as accomplices!! They are not doing their job to uphold the US Constitution which is yotally unambiguous on bribes to US officials.
Fine lets start with the Democrats. They fight harder for illegals then American citizens. This plane is going to the depart. of defense not Trump. Once the new Air Force 1 is built. This plane will be retired. Where were all these Democrats and activist jusdges at. When millions of illegals were allowed to enter the country without due process. But now that attempts are being made to get them out. They are screaming for due process. Less then 35 people out of 100 are granted asylum. Time to pack them up and head them out. They don't belong here.
what bribe to US officials? Who is getting the plane? The freaking DOD. NOT TRUMP!
In 1974 the Supreme Court said the emoluments clause did not refer to the President only ambassadors congressmen etc. The gift is not to Trump but the Defense Dept. If we can’t accept the plane then we need to return the state of liberty. It was accepted as a gift from France by Grover Cleveland. So you can’t allow one President to accept a gift on behalf of the country and not another😊
"he doesn't need a bribe"....what exactly are you trying to say Tommy?
Donny would take a bribe, whether he needs it, or not!
@@JamesMiller-fx5yi- It’s gifted to the US government. The president flies on AF1, no matter where it comes from, and doesn’t benefit any differently. Your TDS is irrational.

Like Biden got
If they gave Trump the plane maybe, but its for the DOD.
@@Timbo2-f9s Show evidence. Meanwhile, you have no problem with Trump taking a $400M bribe in broad daylight. Culting much?
It's not a bribe.
It's a gift, and it's to the US, not to Trump.
This video has a VERY misleading title, and the congressmen are also misleading. Look up the deal for yourself and read..
@@Timbo2-f9sproof please source? Evidence?

Imagine the Statue of Liberty being gifted from a foreign country... 😂
@IM-lr6vz Mhmm, did France support and fund terrorist states? Did the president at the time get to take the statue for his personal presidential library once he was done?
"We don't like handouts...." Tommy, Tommy, Tommy. Trump said he'd take anything anybody offered him.
Exactly!!! Who's he kidding???!! Tommy is a JOKE!!
Tuberville could possibly be the dumbest congressman... and that's really saying something 😆
Not what he ment you know it
And Tubbyville is the very definition of a handout. He doesn’t have any issues with it because he’s an idiot.
@@Debra-j4x what did he mean?
Tommy Tuberville gives all southerners a bad name.
These idiots truly need to go!!! It’s awful as an American to have to sit back and swallow all this while the people in office DO NOTHING!!!!!!!

I don't think anyone needs to do that, it's already a given.
Yep.....great people down south!
Jfc, if a dem ever did this they’d be up in arms.
Ignoring the moral and ethical implications of accepting a gift from a nation that is on tenuous ground politically, if you think we can 100% certify that that plane is unbugged, untapped, and untainted by potential issues, you are insane. There is no way we should be regularly putting our president on a plane that came from another nation's government.
Probably won't need to bug it, trump will just tell them what they want to know everything has a price
Thieves calling others thieves! Love it!
Can’t believe how some people are so gullible
Mostly the Republicans, of course Qatar will want something down the road.
What happened to Christians? Catholics are the only ones with ounce of sense.
Democrats ha e hit such a rock bottom they will hear it on cnn and run with it
Like democRATs
They voted for Harris after all, when she was never on a Democrat primary she ever won. She wasn't even in this election cycles primary. Democrats like sheep did what they were told. The one primary she was in she got less than 1% of the Democrat vote in a closed primary.

@@rustyshackleford9647Nope, I’m from Australia and we’re all laughing at Trump and the GOP for being clowns. This is proof you have no idea about outside the US. Everyone is laughing at Trump. That’s why Canada and Australia had left leaning landslide elections.
So, Tommy Tuberville is fine with it because it's made in America. Yes it WAS made in America and Qatar bought it and now gifting it to Trump. What about the 2 Boeing 747-8's that are currently getting retrofitted to be used as Air Force One, one is supposed to be delivered in 2027 and the other in 2028? It's not like they can just start using this one from Qatar without substantial upgrades.
Aren't all Dollars made in America though?
So why give the plane when Trump could just accept cash? Doesn't seem any different to me.
@@MiMa-t1m Well not all of Trump's properties are made in America. Some new ones are being built in Saudi Arabia, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates and Oman. 🤔
To call Tuberville dumber than a bag of hammers would be an insult and affront to hammers everywhere
I agree. So let's accept this plane, spend billions to fit it to be AF 1 at tax payers expense and oh yea, have a parade costing over $45 million on his birthday. Yet cut medicaid....perfect example of the "deals" Trump is famous for.
Yes. Hammers do their jobs well.
“We don’t like handouts” (unless there for us)
They can't even whatabout this one. There is nothing comparable.
comparable to?? a Plane being given to the DOD? Oh wait... you think they are giving it to Trump? Buahahahhahahaha

If there is anything on it they are very likely to find it. They will be going over it with a comb.
Oh it’s totally compromised and so is Trump and the GOP.
Trojan Horse. Even if nothing is wrong with the aircraft, it leads to path of a lot of schemes down the road.
Our tax money exchanged for it. While we dont even have an FDA???
@@donnahilton471 well we have to pay to get the place prepped for the dictator in charge, then when he leaves office, we have to pay for it to be reversed..
What tax money?🤯
FAA*
Yes, that's how government expenses are paid.
Trojan Horse. What could go wrong?
Aside from the outrage, It Will Cost Taxpayers A Fortune!!!!
It will cost even more to build a new one.
@@WolfRaven-jm1cmexcept, as reported, this plane ownership would revert to property of the Trump library once he leaves office. Therefore, money would be spent converting it to AF1 then it would have to be converted back to a private jet afterwards. That would still leave a need to build 2 new AF1 jets.
@@matthewc3120 The jet is being given to the Pentagon and they are looking into if it can be used as AF1.
Also, it won't be going to the "Trump Library" it could be transferred to the "Presidential Library".
Modern version, TROJAN AIRPLANE.
That's the concern but with the technology our country has they'd be awfully foolish to try and bug that plane. Then again, people do foolish things at times. If any spy equipment is found on that plane it would be very embarrassing for Qatar and wouldn't help them.
@@richstrobelIt opens a path to all types of schemes, even if the aircraft is perfectly fine.
most of these clowns probably losing kickback from Boeing
They are asking what are they getting
It's for the United States of America NOT trump...........
Wow Tommy that’s a reach even for you!!
So if we give money for another country's war or "humanitarian aid" or a negotiation deal, what is that called? Bribery?
So humanitarian aid is the same as a 400M USD luxury jet? How exactly does this jet benefit the people of the US?
Cause the aid programs actually does help project US power internationally. A form of soft power which comes in handy whenever it’s needed
This will be a great sequel for "Dumb and Dumber". Airplane Scene 1: Tommy Tuberville sitting next to Trump while their conversation being streamed live on X, and neither know it.
A government of billionaires, by billionaires, for billionaires
You mean like Pritzker in IL?
And there’s way more billionaires on the Left.
Bribes, emoluments clause aside, if you’re supposed goal is to bring back manufacturing wouldn’t it make sense to have a US manufacturer build AF1, American workers, aluminum etc?
2 are being built, but too many delays out to 2027…All Boeing aircraft are built in the United States, including this one.
@ except this one is already built, I think you missed the point of my post
Trojan Horse. Even if nothing is wrong with the aircraft. It opens up to a lot of schemes down the road.
@@randylahey7343- I guess you’re right…what was your point?
@ my point was that this plane is used so isn’t really keeping/ creating jobs. Mostly though it’s a bribe and probably an impeachable offence but that would take a congress and population that actually cared
Just how dumb. The plane is given to the United States. You know the people.
I would not trust the plane.
Yeah, Cuz it's made in AMERICA by Boeing.. Probably assembled by DEI employees.
Pretty sure you don’t have to worry about flying on it.
Can you imagine the reaction if Biden did this?
They will never be able to find all of the bugs on that airplane. That’s hilarious.
And you are smarter than everyone.😂😂😂
@it looks like I’m definitely smarter than you. Can’t wait to see which emoji you respond with.

Amazing to me that there are a majority of people in Alabama that voted for Tommy Tuberville. Shame on them.
The new AF 1s are just being customized to the requirements of AF1. The planes were ordered by a Russian airliner that canceled them. The new AF1s fly. This plane from Qatar would need to under go the same modifications which takes a longtime.
He’s so crooked.
What is the Senate going to do about it? Tommy Turbeville is an Alabama fool?
Definitely not. If Trump has no better judgement than this; he should be removed by Congress! Tuberville is exercising poor judgement!
It was built in America by Americans 1 mile from my home! Everett Wa!
But stored and upgraded where?
Same. It’s the largest building by volume if you didn’t know that
@mimi7574 Sort of irrelevant.
Built with overwhelmingly foreign parts, mostly made in China. American built? No. Assembled in the US. Bad deal!
@@JamesMiller-fx5yi That’s very true. I remember the 787 being delayed because a lot of pieces took forever to come from Europe. The Italian wiring was bad.
“this is outrageous” they say with zero emotion
40 years old plane being used can’t believe. We are getting new plane for free , thats called art of deal. President saving tax payers dollars.
You're so gullible, you really think the plane is free, no strings attached? It's called Art of the Steal. No, it won't save taxpayer dollars.
How is that "Art of the Deal" ....did Trump ask for this? How dumb are you. It'll cost million to retrofit the plane to the same standards as the current plane, so not really saving anything, just accepting a "gift" from a arab nation.
The Trojans gave us a horse! What could go wrong!
Boeing won the contract to build 2 new Air Force One jets (contract was in 2018.) The new planes were to be completed by 2024 but, the project was delayed due to several issues. Now, the project is due to be completed between 2027-2029. In the meantime, President Trump wants to use this luxury jet from Qatar as a temporary Air Force One. It will still need to be thoroughly checked, modifications will have to be made etc. That will take time and money. I'm all for the 2 Air Force One Jets being upgraded and replaced but, it does bother me that President Trump will be using a jet from Qatar. It doesn't sit well with me.
Hope they put a timer that comes with a button for the highest bidder.
Hope Karma finds you.
Donald Trump is showing the world who America always has been.
This is a fantastic gift from a friend
Okay fool whatever you say.
If this was Joe Biden doing this you’d hear about it everyday for the next 4 years
It’s a plane for the military you loons
Why does the military need a "gift" from Qatar?
That is going into his "library" at the end of his term, you loon.
I know you're not saying that just because the military manages air force 1&2 and marine 1&2...this is not that
Wrong! It will be gifted to the DJT foundation. He'll use it while in office and afterwards.
@😂😂😂stop crying, your last government took everything including your tax payers money and gave it to immigrants, they destroyed American, how many homes have you bought for the dem an corrupt judges, 😂
Air Force One should be made in America by Americans for Americans plain and simple right democrats funny how they changed their tune just because Trump is going to accept it but I am glad they are starting to agree with him on the need to boost American manufacturing even if that wasn’t their intention
The plane was built in the US.
I know that, it’s a Boeing jet of course it was made in America but isn’t it funny when the Biden family got caught up in all the foreign businesses that was nothing don’t pay it no mind but know a foreign government wants to donate to our president it’s a problem just because it’s Trump I am Not a republican nor am I a democrat but the Democrats always seem so petty to me
This plane is a Boeing aircraft manufactured in America, like all Boeing aircraft.
I know it’s a Boeing jet funny though how we were not supposed to be concerned with the Biden family foreign business partners and that we should just ignore it but a foreign government donation to our country with no strings attached is a problem simply because it is Trump
The Trojans gave us a horse! What could go wrong!

That plane will cost 1 BILLION to refurbish and make secure. Guess who pays for that.
If it's to be used as Airforce One, and not a personal gift, I don't see the problem.
Exactly, that's the difference. I think the real issue is who the benefactor is.
It's a gift to Trump's Presidential Library. It won't be used by any future presidents. Trump will own the plane when his administration ends.
Because Boeing is an American company if anything, they should provide the plane, not a foreign country which has little to no political ties with America and supports terrorist groups that 100% would do anything to hurt America.
It's not going to be an AF1, it can't be because it lacks key functionality. Once he's out of office it follows DJT's person for his use afterwards.
But he gets to take it with him when he leaves office. That’s corruption.
Tommy Tuberville remarked that the plane was made in America like that made it safe from espionage even though it's been in their hands for more than 13 years.
