'Just days after president-elect Donald Trump called out Boeing for "out of control" costs on its Air Force One bid, the aircraft manufacturer has decided to match its donation to President Obama, giving $1 million to the president-elect’s inauguration, USA Today reports.'

Boeing pledges $1 million for Donald Trump's inaugural events


Thoughts?

that 1 million would have been better served in places other than Trumps inauguration.

Gotta grease the hands of Trump to play. And yes, I am very aware they did the same with Obama. In both situations it looks shady. But remember folks, Trump can't be bought and it's going to be completely different :roll:

i cant think of anywhere better to spend it. the wife and i will be watchin the historic event on the television set from our neighborhood watering hole. might order some wings :confused:
 
Feeding starving kids.

Nope, but that money too would have been better spend on starving kids than some party for elite bastards who get to run the country. Trump can have a bag of Doritos and STFU, for all I care. The money in politics these days is obscene.

The Zero Hedge blog seems to be spinning this up somewhat (fake news?) by clearly inferring that the decision by Boeing was made after (and therefore because of) Trump’s tweeting about AF1 when there is zero evidence of that sequence of events, that the primary source of their information explicitly quoted a suggestion of the opposite and that it frankly doesn’t make sense that a massive corporation makes million-dollar decisions within a couple of days.

My main take-away from reading about this is to wonder why you need a multi-million dollar inauguration event for any new President at all. I can’t begin to imagine how they’ll even spend $75 million on one event!

Following Twitter spat, Boeing does what it has done for the last president. Trump haters suddenly become outraged!
 
What a waste of money, most folks will skip it anyway, unless your the KKK or a neo nazi, an international embaresement.

Trump ass kissers should be mortified that he acts like a thin-skinned teenager on Twitter and lacks self discipline, self control, and the ability to tell the truth when tweeting.

They aren't. There's been two on this board that have flat out said that no matter what Trump does (however bad it is) they will still support him .
