The Trump administration is set to accept a luxury Boeing 747-8 jet as a donation from the Qatari royal family, in what is possibly the biggest foreign gift ever to be received by the US government, according to a senior official.
The plane will then be donated to Trump’s presidential library when he leaves office, the official said, allowing him to continue using it as a private citizen, according to US media reports…
… The plane being donated by Qatar is expected to be retrofitted by a military contractor called L3Harris, in Texas. It is expected to be finished by the end of the year, allowing Trump to use it while in office.
A Defence Department official said it could take an extended period of time to complete the contract and complete the upgrades and modifications, if the donation goes ahead. “We’re talking years, not months,” the official said, speaking on condition of anonymity to discuss sensitive details about a future Air Force One (AF1)…
… The present plan has been signed off on by government lawyers who concluded it does not violate the emoluments clause of the Constitution and that the Defence Department can accept the gift, the official said.

The "government lawyer" who signed it off was Pam Bondi, the US Attorney General, who was previously a lobbyist for the Qatar Government, earning $115k per month from them…
