Trump hurtling toward new scandal as timeline moved forward on luxury foreign gift: report

The Trump administration is accelerating deployment of a luxury Boeing 747-8 jet donated by Qatar for use as Air Force One, with the U.S. Air Force announcing the aircraft will be ready for presidential use this summer.

That could cut the projected timelines nearly in half and raises fresh concerns about the arrangement's ethical and political implications, wrote MS NOW columnist Steve Benen.

The shift represents a striking reversal in Trump's relationship with Qatar, which he publicly condemned in 2017 as a "funder of terrorism at a very high level," but when confronted about those comments last fall, Trump stated he "didn't really know them very well" at the time. Over the past year, however, his administration has dramatically deepened ties with the Gulf state through a series of controversial arrangements.
