“Saturday Night Live” began his final of the season by making fun of the prospect that the royal family Qatari offering a luxury jet to serve the Air Force One.
While his trip to the Middle East ended on Saturday, Donald Trump used Truth Social to Rail against ABC News for raising questions about his desire to accept a luxury plane of $ 400 million from the Qatari government because the replacement plane was delayed.
In the SNL Cold Open, the imitator of Trump of the show, James Austin Johnson, discussed his trip with the crown prince of Saudi Arabia Mohammed Bin Salman, played by Emil Wakim.
Johnson’s Trump said That, when he participated in the trip “for the American people”, he said: “I did very well during this trip. I had a lot of nice things.”
“The Qatari gave me an 400 million dollars plane, can you believe this? And people said it was a kind of bribe. Not true, not true. Because they asked nothing in return.”
“Well, not yet,” prohibited the prince of Wakim.
Johnson’s Trump replied: “So it’s a pre-pot-brown. But now people say that I should really fly on an American plane. Ah, no thank you. Have you seen what’s going on with our planes?”
He continued:: “Since it is a final, after tonight, it means that you will not see me here for a while. Well, not the false fun version of me that makes you smile.”
He added:: “The real one will always be omnipresent. You can’t escape me, right? I’m everywhere, even in your dreams, like the deceased, Grand Freddy Krueger.”
In his social post of truth, the real president insisted that the plane was not a gift to him, but for the Pentagon. The American Constitution prohibits the president from accepting a gift from a foreign head of state without the approval of the congress.
“This highly respected country donates the plane to the United States Department of the Air Force / Defense, not to me,” Trump wrote on Saturday, just before the “SNL” sketch.
Maga democrats and loyalists criticized the proposed donation as a legally questionable suspect and a potential security risk.
If the agreement materializes, Trump said that the plane would be temporarily used as Air Force One during his remaining time before being given to his presidential library.
Qatar media in the United States, Ali Al-Ansari, said in a statement in a statement on Wednesday that the transfer of the plane was “under study”.
Al-Ansari said that the case “remains under study by the respective legal services, and that no decision has been made”.
