Trump Tweet Pits Boeing and Lockheed Against Each Other

[Weatherman2020]

If Obama had done it the left and right would be doing a golf clap. But because it is Trump, the left will start bitching about this too. Trump got Boeing to do Air Force One for under budget the other day, this is what America needs.

President-elect tweeted about Boeing and Lockheed Martin Thursday, seemingly framing the two defense contractors in a competition over jet fighter costs.

Based on the tremendous cost and cost overruns of the Lockheed Martin F-35, I have asked Boeing to price-out a comparable F-18 Super Hornet!

The left calls it preventing normalization. If they attack everything he does, somehow by pretending he's not president, he won't be.

During the campaign, Trump promised there were billions of dollars of waste in the US government that he would eliminate and he has already started. The F-35 is a superior plane to the F-18, but the question is, are these features worth the price?

President Obama would never try to harm American businesses. You might want to research the WHY of this. Hint: russia has planes they want to sell to us AND they don't want Boeing to keep their contract with Iran.

He would never try to hurt American businesses unless the Sierra Club of one of the other special interest groups the Democrats depend on tell him to.
