Newsmax host defends Qatar's gift to Trump then admits he'd 'definitely criticize' Biden for the same thing
Newsmax host defends Qatar’s gift to Trump then admits he’d ‘definitely criticize’ Biden for the same thing (The Independent)‘I will say, I would definitely criticize Joe Biden if he cut the exact same deal, and I would criticize Joe Biden if he was about to get a $400 million plane from Qatar,’ Rob Finnerty said on Tuesday night
Newsmax host Rob Finnerty laid bare his hypocrisy on Tuesday night when he admitted that he’d “definitely criticize” Joe Biden if the Qatari royal family had gifted him a $400 million plane while president – right after passionately defending Donald Trump over the same thing.
Finnerty, a fervent MAGA sycophant who once proudly declared that Trump “is a dictator that the American people want,” opened his primetime Newsmax broadcast by parroting the president’s talking points when it came to justifying the lavish “palace in the sky.”
At the same time, he also took aim at Republicans who have come out against the president over accepting the gift, who have called it “skeevy” and “not America First” as it could run afoul of the Emoluments Clause.
