Donald
Trump’s announcement that he will accept a $400 million jet from Qatar isn’t
sitting well with some of his staunchest GOP supporters. On Monday, “Daily
Wire” founder Ben Shapiro blasted the president’s “shady behavior”, saying it
“undermines his agenda and credibility.”
The
conservative commentator said on his show, “Even if it’s not criminal, it’s bad
optics,” adding that the move is “political poison.”
Shapiro
continued that if this story were about Hunter and Joe Biden, “conservatives
would be screaming.”
“Trump has
real enemies. He doesn’t need to create vulnerabilities like this. If these
scandals continue, Republicans could lose Congress — and everything President
Trump wants to do would be dead on arrival. It needs to stop,” said Shapiro.
On Sunday,
political activist Laura Loomer tweeted that she would “take a bullet” for
Trump, but that he had finally gone too far.
“We cannot
accept a $400 million ‘gift from jihadists in suits,” she wrote. The Qataris
fund the same Iranian proxies in Hamas and Hezbollah who have murdered US
Service Members. The same proxies that have worked with the Mexican cartels to
get jihadists across our border.”
This is
really going to be such a stain on the admin if this is true,” Loomer
continued, adding, “I’m so disappointed.”
Shapiro also
called out Trump’s crypto launch, saying that if it were Hunter Biden, “people
would be outraged.” On Saturday, Senate Democrats introduced the “End Crypto
Corruption Actt,” to put an end to Trump’s “profoundly corrupt scheme” as Sen.
Jeff Merkley termed it.
