A foreign-supplied aircraft is pretty much guaranteed to be filled with listening devices, and won't have the protective measures that are built into the US Air Force One. Not to mention the bribery problem with planning on using it for personal use after leaving office.

No Title of Nobility shall be granted by the United States: And no Person holding any Office of Profit or Trust under them, shall, without the Consent of the Congress, accept of any present, Emolument, Office, or Title, of any kind whatever, from any King, Prince, or foreign State.

So Congress is okay with this clear Emolument?
