It was OK when we accepted the statue of Liberty from France. Why not a jet airplane?
I want the President of the United States riding in the utmost safety.
Perhaps the American public can fly around in the new jet, just as the public gets to enjoy the sights and views from Liberty.

It’s not likely that the French hid bugging devices or any explosives in the Statue of Liberty. Yes, the Secret Service will sweep this new plane. But it’s unwise to take the chance in the first place.
Oh, and does anyone think Qatar is doing this out of the goodness of their heart? This gift kind of reminds me of:
“Someday, and that day may never come, I will call upon you to do a service for me.”
