Charlamagne Tha God tore apart Donald Trump’s “blatant corruption” on Monday after the administration announced plans to accept a $400 million luxury plane from the Qatari royal family to serve as the president’s new Air Force One.

“The U.S. Constitution prohibits government officials from accepting gifts from any king, prince or foreign state,” the radio host stressed on “The Breakfast Club.”

“But we’re in a post-constitutional country, so I guess that document means nothing to this administration, so who cares.”

The plane — a Boeing 747-8 jumbo jet — would mark one of the biggest gifts ever received by the U.S. government and, after its use as his Air Force One, the president claims it’ll be transferred to the Trump Presidential Library Foundation.

The move has since sparked backlash from Democrats and some of Trump’s fiercest allies alike.

The president — who is set to visit Qatar next week — defended the move on his Truth Social platform and, in remarks at a press conference on Monday, claimed that the plane wouldn’t be a “gift” to him but rather to the Department of Defense.

On Monday, Charlamagne characterized such a move as “widely illegal” before emphasizing that Qatar funds “terrorist organizations,” referring to its backing of Hamas.

“How do we know they can’t just make this plane fall out the sky?” he questioned.

“And I know the Secret Service is going to do a sweep of the plane, but it’s probably loaded with listening devices and tracking devices. They’re going to have so much intel on our country. Why? Beware the noble gesture.”
