The U.S. economic system has been on a rollercoaster trip these previous few months because of the ongoing tariff war, however not less than the president is getting a shiny new private jet from Qatar.
“Qatar is giving us a airplane that Trump will get to maintain?” asks an incredulous Jon Stewart in The Daily Show monologue above. “He is just like the reverse Oprah. ‘I get a jet! And that is it.'”
Stewart goes on to play a clip of Trump defending the choice, with the president showing baffled by the concept he would not settle for the reward.
“It isn’t a free jet,” responds Stewart. “That is the purpose. You realize the expression, ‘There is no such factor as a free lunch?’ That is about being sceptical of the motives of someone who provides you a sandwich. A sandwich. A BLT. Now think about that that BLT has an engine, 9 bogs, and funds proxy wars.”
