Lawrence O'Donnell: "A 13 year old plane not good enough for a dictator, but good enough for Donald Trump" [View all]

Lawrence O’Donnell: Trump Is ‘Too Stupid’ to See How He’s Being Humiliated With $400M Jet Gift

The MSNBC host said Trump is on a “humiliation tour” of the Middle East. On Tuesday’s episode of The Last Word he even suggested that leaders from Saudi Arabia, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates view Trump with contempt.

O’Donnell said they see Trump as “someone who lives beneath them, as someone who takes their secondhand junk, their secondhand toys.”

The veteran host suggested that the 13-year-old Boeing 747-8 is only being given to Trump because it’s been “abandoned by the dictator of Qatar because it’s not good enough for him anymore.”

“But it’s good enough for Donald Trump. Donald Trump is currently the only person in the Middle East too stupid to understand how humiliated he is now by that 13-year-old plane that’s not good enough for a dictator, but is more than good enough for Donald Trump,” O’Donnell blasted.
