Republicans reacted to ABC News‘ exclusive reporting that President Donald Trump’s administration is poised to accept a luxury jumbo jet as a gift from Qatar.
Republicans were on Capitol Hill Monday night as they dodged or laughed off ABC News‘ exclusive reporting that President Donald Trump was considering accepting a luxury jet as a gift from the Qatari government to potentially use as Air Force One.
While several senators avoided questions or made jokes, few were willing to give a full-throated defense of the proposed gift.
Like most Republicans, Sen. Cynthia Lummis, R-Wyo., initially said she didn’t know enough about the story to comment but called it „an interesting one.“
When ABC News told her that Trump intended to use the gifted plane as Air Force One, she broke into laughter.
