Trump’s Bombardier warning triggers $80 million jet listing
Wed, September 9, 2026 at 2:30 AM GMT+3 2 min read
On Sep. 7, President Donald Trump warned the Canadian business jet manufacturer Bombardier to build in the U.S. to sell its planes in the American markets, or it won't be able to sell in the world's leading economy.
Though Trump's warning to Bombardier is part of the standoff between the U.S. and Canada over tariffs, it triggered a private jet listing by real estate mogul Grant Cardone.

Cardone lists 2024 Bombardier Global 7500 for $80 million
Cardone is a real estate investor whose firm, Cardone Capital, runs on a unique business model in which rental income from the property is used to periodically purchase Bitcoin. A strong advocate of the leading cryptocurrency, he speaks of it as part of a broader wealth-building strategy.
Following Trump's warning to Bombardier, Cardone listed his 2024 Global 7500 for $80 million, sans tariffs.
As he listed the world's largest purpose-built business jet for sale, he suggested that Trump's warning to choke the company's supply in the U.S. raises its demand.

Cardone offers to sell jet for 1,025 Bitcoin
The next day, Cardone went a step further and said his 2024 Bombardier Global 7500 can be purchased for 1,025 Bitcoin.
At the current price of around $78,400 a coin, 1,025 Bitcoin is worth only slightly more than $80 million.
Cardone Capital held roughly $200 million in Bitcoin as of May and it keeps adding BTC to its balance sheet. His allowing Bitcoin payments for the jet sale implies his extremely bullish belief in the cryptocurrency's future.
Only last week, he said that Bitcoin will become a means of exchange when its market cap hits $20 trillion. However, its current market cap is $1.57 trillion.
