President Donald Trump on Monday lashed out at ABC News reporter Rachel Scott after she questioned whether a $400 million luxury jet donated by Qatar’s royal family to the Pentagon could be perceived as a personal gift to him.
The tense exchange with Scott, whose network recently paid $16 million to Trump as part of a defamation settlement, occurred during a signing ceremony at the White House, where the president praised the aircraft donation and dismissed any suggestion that it was inappropriate.
“I would never be one to turn down that kind of an offer,” Trump said.
“I mean, I could be a stupid person and say, ‘No, we don’t want a free, very expensive airplane.’ But I thought it was a great gesture.”
King Donald has no shame whatsoever, only greed!
