Only on behalf of the United States… same as the Statue of Liberty or thousands of other items at the Smithsonian that have been given “to presidents” but were passed onto the US government.

The government could. Trump, personally CANNOT.

Any gift of State must be reported to Dept of State, if it is valued at more than $50. There are processes by which an individual could be allowed to purchase a “gift”.

Example: Ronald Reagan purchased his gift of a horse from Mexico’s President Vincente Fox.
