Stephen Colbert Flags The Trump Quote That Makes His Qatar Jet Gift Even Worse
HuffPost
The "Late Show" host exposed the president's hypocrisy in his plan to accept a $400 million jet from the Qatari government.
“Late Show” host Stephen Colbert ripped President Donald Trump on Monday for taking what he described as a “clear bribe” in the form of a $400 million jet from Qatar, referring to those who have condemned the country’s government for “fomenting violence.”
“One world leader even said that Qatar was funding terrorism ‘at a very high level,’” Colbert said.
“That leader? Donald Trump.”
He continued, “But you know what? Donald Trump knows, Donald Trump knows that this is America. We do not negotiate with terrorists. We accept whatever they’re offering, no questions asked.”
Trump — who has defended accepting the luxury plane gift to serve as his new Air Force One — once criticized Qatar in 2017, accusing its government of supporting terrorism at a time when Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Egypt and the United Arab Emirates engaged in a diplomatic blockade of the nation.
