CNN anchor Anderson Cooper called out Trump’s acceptance of luxurious gifts with a montage showing his past comments.<\/p>\n

Cooper was doing a segment about Trump’s jet that was gifted to him by Qatar while also bringing up more recent revelations of enrichment by Trump and his family through foreign deals, including in Kazakhstan and through his crypto ventures.<\/p>\n

However, Cooper made a point about Trump’s hypocrisy by playing a video from his 2016 debate with former Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton.<\/p>\n

“I seem to recall him once having very strong feelings about accepting foreign gifts,” Cooper said before cutting to a clip where Trump attacks Clinton. Trump talks about “Saudi Arabia giving $25 million, Qatar, all these countries” giving gifts to Clinton.<\/p>\n

“You talk about women and women’s rights,” Trump said in the clip. “These are people that push gays off buildings, these are people that kill women and treat women horribly, and yet you take their money.”<\/p>\n

Trump then asked Clinton, “Why don’t you give back the money that you’ve taken from certain countries that treat certain groups of people so horribly?”<\/p>\n

Cooper noted the irony that Trump was “so offended” by million-dollar donations to Clinton while she was Obama’s secretary of state.<\/p>\n

“It certainly did not look good, and then-candidate Trump knew it,” Cooper said. “He knew that even the appearance of impropriety matters. What’s more, he seemed to understand back then that gifts to public servants do not come with no strings attached.”<\/p>\n

Cooper then played a clip of Trump bragging, “I give to many people,” and “I give to everybody. When they call, I give, and you know what? When I need something from them two or three years later, I call them, and they are there for me.”<\/p>\n
