    more jobs and reduced costs on a government contract, now that's a win win situation. Say whatever you want about trump but I think it is great we will have a businessman on the WH instead of a old tired political hack like clinton. Best thing about Trump is he owes no one except himself and the American citizens who voted for him. Still he did say one thing I don't agree with, I don't think I will ever get tired of seeing the USA win

    Lockheed Tells Trump It Will Cut F-35 Costs, Create New Jobs


    Lockheed Martin Corp.’s chief told President-elect Donald Trump it’s close to a deal with the Pentagon to lower costs “significantly’’ for the next production lot of its F-35 fighter jet and will boost hiring at the Texas factory where the advanced aircraft is made.

    Marillyn Hewson, chief executive officer of the world’s largest defense contractor, said she assured Trump in a Friday meeting that “I certainly share his views that we need to get the best capability to our men and women in uniform and we need to get it at the lowest possible price.’’

    What did Trump actually change? Hewson just made a corporate-talk statement telling people (including Trump himself) whatever they want to hear. She's talking about discussions Lockheed have already been having with the Pentagon so it's nothing Trump could have been involved in and there's nothing here to suggest any particular changes or progress as a result of her chat with Trump. It just generated a bit more corporate propaganda, one of the few things Trump seems to be good at.

    No, as I said, Hewson went to tell Trump what he wanted to hear because of the risk of Trump sticking a spanner in works of their ongoing negotiations. There's still nothing here to suggest that anything about those negotiations or their ultimate conclusions will be any different to how they would have been without Trump's intervention. All we know he's generated is a little extra corporate spin.

    Don't insult me please. I was just politely responding to your thread.
