Sen. Chris Murphy said he wants Congress to have a say in arms deals with countries that have made investments in Trump’s personal businesses.
In an interview with Here & Now’s Asma Khalid, Murphy singled out Qatar for offering to give President Trump a jet the White House could use as a temporary Air Force One.
“Qatar has been a really important ally of the United States, and so it is disturbing that a country like Qatar, who should know better, is engaging in this kind of corruption,” Murphy said. “And part of the message that we're sending to these countries is that if you go forward with this, it will compromise in the long run your relationship with the United States. There will be a democratic president someday, and they will remember the ways in which these nations were willing to facilitate the corruption of US foreign policy.”
