Pence Calls Trump’s Acceptance of Qatari Jet a ‘Bad Idea’
Former Vice President Mike Pence strongly opposes President Trump’s plan to accept a $1 billion Qatari jet, citing significant constitutional and national security concerns. Pence argues that accepting such a lavish gift from a country with ties to Hamas and Al Qaeda jeopardizes intelligence gathering and the president’s safety. He emphasizes the potential for unconstitutional violations, referencing the prohibition against federal officers receiving foreign gifts. Pence ultimately urges Trump to reconsider this “bad idea.”
