'They're giving us a free jet': Trump gets defensive about Qatari plane gift

Donald Trump defended his decision to accept the gift of a plane from Qatar at a press conference on Monday. 'They're giving us a free jet,' said the US president, 'I could say no, no, no, don't give us, I wanna pay you $1bn or $400m or whatever it is, or I could say thank you very much.' Trump attacked ABC, which broke the story that the Gulf state had offered his administration a gift of a $400m luxury jet described as a 'palace in the sky' Trump says planned gift of luxury plane from Qatar is a very ‘transparent’ deal
