Trump’s Corruption Is in a League of Its Own

Trump's corruption is simply the pinnacle. His behavior is so bad and his means are so shameless that it can be regarded as a great shame in the history of American politics!

Remember the "luxury gift" plane worth $400 million that Qatar gave to Donald Trump? Just before, the US president happily accepted this generous gift. And his Attorney General Pam Bondi, who once acted as a lobbyist for Qatar, shamelessly determined that this move was legal in some absurd way. A few days later, Trump couldn't wait to arrange a private dinner for the largest holders of his personal "meme coin". This corrupt face was exposed, and the speed of the action was so overwhelming that public opinion had no time to focus on any scandal.

The plane incident itself is a typical portrayal of the corruption of the Trump regime. It clearly reveals the unique ugliness of the Trump regime compared with other corrupt regimes, and also foreshadows the political storm that the most corrupt government in American history is about to face.

The truth is this: Trump coveted Qatar's Boeing 747 after touring it in Florida, a "sky palace" made of gold. Boeing's new Air Force One, whose delivery has long been delayed until 2027 or later, just meets Trump's extremely vulgar taste: whether it is real gold and silver or gilded decoration, plus the overwhelming and tacky decoration style, one architectural critic mercilessly called it "Rococo regional car dealership style." Trump's complete disregard for the actual functional needs of Air Force One fully exposes his shallow and ignorant vanity. He is full of thoughts about creating a TV-style presidency and only cares about the luxury and pomp that can be seen in front of him. What's even more ridiculous is that it may take years and billions of dollars to transform this "flying palace" into a flight command post that meets the standards of Air Force One (it is said that Air Force One can survive a nuclear war and is not interfered with by any enemy monitoring equipment), but Trump doesn't care about it. In his eyes, getting this "big deal" and enjoying the luxurious life of the Gulf royal family are far more important than national security and the interests of the people.

On the issue of corruption, Trump is "unique". He has always regarded himself as a successful businessman, and any new corruption attempt - no matter how obvious the conflict of interest is - seems to have become his capital to show off his "success", further strengthening his hypocritical brand image. Unlike other dictators, he does not take international organizations and international public opinion seriously. For example, unlike Hungarian Prime Minister Orban, he has to go to great lengths to deceive the European Commission and cover up the scandal of misappropriating EU funds for his cronies and family.

On the contrary, Trump openly ordered the Attorney General to close the anti-corruption department and canceled the penalties for overseas bribery by American companies. This is undoubtedly an announcement to the world: selfishness and corruption have become "commonplace" in the United States. Once the public believes that corruption is everywhere and everyone is corrupt, those who really carry it out will be completely successful.

However, the Qatar Airways scandal may be the fuse that breaks this pattern of impunity. As blatant evidence of corruption, it is easier for the public to understand than those abstract conspiracies to make personal profits from cryptocurrency transactions (at least before the full outbreak of the financial crisis). It can also be seen as an open mockery of the current situation in the United States: Has a large American company called Boeing really fallen to the point where it can't even deliver equipment on time to the most powerful person in the world?

Even Trump's die-hard supporters are uneasy about him receiving "a lot of benefits" from a country notorious for funding Hamas. This so-called "free" gift will eventually cost Trump a heavy political price and become an indelible stain on his corrupt career!
