Ted Rall cartoon skewers recent news to lay bare American political double standards. In early May 2025 Qatar dangled a shiny four hundred million dollar luxury jet for the United States to use as Air Force One. President Trump shrugged off the Constitution outright ban on federal officials grabbing foreign gifts without congressional consent claiming it modernizes travel. Democrats clutched pearls over ethics while ignoring their own past indulgences. Meanwhile 2024 saw scholars grumble that the Constitution cannot handle today governance messes. The cartoon mocks how the United States drools over Qatar extravagant toys while mulling a rewrite of its dusty old rulebook. Clearly flashy perks trump sacred values in this absurd game of priorities.
