Donald Trump intends to accept a luxury Boeing jet from the Qatari royal family for use as Air Force One then continue flying in it after his tenure, despite strict rules on US presidential gifts, media reported Sunday.
ABC News, which first reported the story, called the plane a "flying palace." The Boeing 747-8 jumbo jet would possibly be the most expensive gift ever received by the US government.
The US Constitution prohibits government officials from accepting gifts "from any King, Prince or foreign State," in a section known as the emoluments clause.
But Trump plans to skirt the law by handing it over to his presidential library as he leaves office.
