racer254 Posted October 28, 2022 Share Posted October 28, 2022 (edited) Trump buys planes and saves the taxpayers money and DEMS bitch about it. Trump tries to refill the SPR as cheap as possible and democrats bitch about it and stop it. TRUMP TRUMP TRUMP. BTW, what normal consumers are buying planes from boeing. Only the wealthiest are buying planes. How ignorant does a person have to be to rally against buying things and negotiating prices to get the best deal. The idiot who is saying this will be the first one on here bragging about the deal on the van he just bought......I guess he is just passing on the cost to other consumers.

He put Boeing in a precarious position politically. In turn they cut cost to save face. He basically used the bully pulpit to beat an American company into to taking a massive loss on a government contract. Then trump bragged about the deal in public for political points. I’m on the same page as trump. It really doesn’t matter to me. Boeing can go broke for all I’m concerned. I’m neither a share holder or an employee.

If a private company wants the work or contract they will find a way. Spacex is a prime example. They can put shit in space cheaper then Boeing, NASA, or the Chinese. They found a cheap way to utilize tax payers dollars. I feel and always have and economics has proven the 747 is very inefficient transporting people…. It shouldn’t be a presidential plane. 737 max should be the choice for AF1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting $5 billion worth of planes for $3 billion!!! The cost of the main street renovation in my small town more then doubled with cost overruns and oversights to the quoting. The company that did all the surveying, engineering/design, environmental, and project management would just draft a change order for whatever oversight they made, collect their 25% and passed the cost of their fuck-up on to the city taxpayers. If you want 5 billion for your 2 planes, charge the 5 billion. Don't sell them for 3 and try to get the extra 2 later with change orders and whatnot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
