President Donald Trump is preparing to accept a luxury jet from the royal family of Qatar, which he will use as Air Force One, four sources familiar with the planning confirmed to NBC News.
The plane, a Boeing 747-8 jet, is set to be transferred to Trump’s presidential library foundation at the conclusion of his second White House term, two sources confirmed to NBC.
The administration will retrofit the plane so it can be used in Trump’s official capacity as president.
The lavish gift is likely to raise questions from legal scholars and experts surrounding the legality of the move.
