During the way Trump discussed with the President of the South African Republic Cyril Ramafosa “Discrediting the White Race” in South Africa, the journalist asked about the Pentagon's statement about the adoption of the Catar aircraft as the presidential Air Force One.
“What are you talking about? You know, you should get out of here,” Trump said.
He recognized the NBC journalist and accused the channel of trying to give the topic of meeting from the genocide in South Africa.
“They [Катар] Give the US military forces a plane. It's clear? And this is wonderful. […] You are real … You know, you are a terrible reporter. Firstly, you do not have what you need to be a reporter. You are not smart enough. But the fact that you touched on the topic of the plane that was transferred to the US Air Force is very nice. They also invested $ 5.1 trillion as an addition to the plane, ”Trump said.
The head of the White House also called the present journalist a “disgrace” and stated that it was necessary to conduct an investigation against the leaders of his editorial office.
On May 21, The New York Times reported with reference to the US Department of Defense that the agency accepted Boeing 747 from Qatar and will work on its modernization to safely transport the American president. According to the Pentagon, the estimated value of the aircraft is approximately $ 200 million.
The newspaper drew attention to the fact that such a gift caused a surprise of congressmen both the democratic and the republican parties. They fear that Qatar in this way wants to influence Trump and that listening means can be on board. However, Prime Minister of Catarus Sheikh Mohammed Bin Abdulrahman Al Tanya discarded the assumption about an attempt to influence Trump using an expensive gift.
