re: Qatar slashes its overseas aid spending by roughly 85%

The irony and hypocrisy of this statement alone shows your ignorance and intent.

You almost NEVER argue using facts. You don't back up what you say. You seldom, if ever, rebut any of the evidence I adduce.

Like here, you attack my alleged ignorance (demonstrably untrue) and intent (which is unknown to you).

Taking the intent first, some of you clowns yell "TDS" which, logically (maybe outside clown abilities) means I respond to something differently because Trump is involved. Never once can you point to an instance of that because it's not true.

Here, the receipt of a $400 million dollar jet for the exclusive use of the President clearly suggests an attempt at foreign influence REGARDLESS of who the President is. Imagine the strokes around here if Kenya had given the US a free jet for Obama's use while he was president:):):)

As for ignorance, if I know something, I back it with evidence. If I don't know something, I indicate that.

So....what about your irrelevant assertion that the jet was "supposed to go to Biden"?

Below is what ChatGPT said about "Biden and the Qatari Jet." ChatGPT isn't 100% reliable, but what evidence do you have to support that the jet was supposed to go to Biden?

If you mean the Boeing 747-8 that Qatar ultimately gave the U.S. for President Trump’s use, I found no credible evidence that the aircraft was originally intended to go to President Biden or the Biden administration.
What the evidence does show is somewhat different:
The aircraft was owned/used by Qatar and had been configured for the Qatari royal family. Reporting says it was originally intended for Qatar’s royal family, not Biden.

The Trump administration's involvement appears to have begun in early 2025. Trump personally toured the aircraft in Palm Beach on February 15, 2025, and subsequently pursued acquiring it for presidential use.


The proposal that emerged was for Qatar to provide the aircraft to the U.S. government for Trump's use as Air Force One, with the administration later proposing that it ultimately go to Trump's presidential library.

I don't see evidence in the contemporary reporting, congressional documents, or other sources I checked that Biden had requested the aircraft, that Qatar offered it to Biden, or that Biden's administration had arranged to receive it.

There is, however, an important wrinkle: the underlying aircraft transaction apparently predates Trump's involvement. The reporting describes Qatar as having the 747 as an aircraft for its royal family, and negotiations surrounding the plane were already occurring before the public announcement of the Trump arrangement. But that is quite different from saying “Qatar was going to give the plane to Biden.”
