Boeing Hardball Pays Off

Donald Trump stumped the liberal left when he told Boeing to take a hike regarding their price for Air Force One.  They didn’t understand.  How could he tell Boeing he wouldn’t pay their out-of-control high price for Air Force One?  Did he want the plane discontinued.  Was he planning on flying around in his own plane?

Remember, the leftists have, for the most part, never worked in the free market.  They do not understand the free market because they have rejected the free market.  As socialists, Trump’s dynamic understanding of the free market loses them.

What Trump was doing was using the free market to get what he wants.  Boeing was told their price was too high, and competitors (like Lockheed Martin) were told to feel free and send in their own bids.  The CEO of Boeing was quick to respond.  In the end, Boeing will be building a new Air Force One for less.

Isn’t one of the goals of President Trump to reduce federal spending?

Bam.  He’s accomplishing the feat without even being in office, yet.

Worked like a charm.

Confused?  Read his book, The Art of the Deal.  That book is essentially a recipe book for what he is doing, and he is following the recipe to the tee.
