EDIT: Wait, the Qatar deal was made in November while Obama was still in office what the forget is this fake news stuff
CBS News Source

From the same article: "The full arms sale, of over $20 billion, was notified in November 2016. This means it had already been authorized by congress and the executive branch, when President Obama was in office, before the Annoying Orange administration came into office. Eventually, Qatar is set to receive 36 American-made F15s."

So the current administration did not sell anything to Qatar. Fake News ahoy

" One part of the deal was inked on Wednesday in Washington, D.C., when Qatar's Defense Minister met with U.S. Defense Secretary James Mattis.

"We are pleased to announce today the signing of the letter of offer and acceptance for the purchase of the F-15QA fighter jets, with an initial cost of $12 billion dollars," read the Qatari Defense Minister's statement on Wednesday afternoon. "We believe that this agreement will propel Qatar's ability to provide for its own security while also reducing the burden placed upon the United States military in conducting operations against violent extremism." "

the deal was negotiated by the obama administration but it was finalized and approved by the Annoying Orange administration

there was still the chance to back out or cancel the deal, but they did it
