Japanese Bank to invest $50 billion in the U.S.

On Tuesday afternoon, the billionaire founder and CEO of Japan's Softbank was seen entering the Trump Tower, to meet with the President-elect. It appears that they had fruitful conversations, because just a few minutes later, Trump - who earlier in the day lambasted Boeing over charging too much for Air Force 1 sending its stock lower - tweeted some words of praise for the Japanese businessman.

At 2:10pm eastern, Trump tweeted "Masa (SoftBank) of Japan has agreed to invest $50 billion in the U.S. toward businesses and 50,000 new jobs..." and in a follow up Tweet added "Masa said he would never do this had we (Trump) not won the election!"

God,you have to love Trump ! This guy is the real deal and the press sitting in the corner moaning to themselves doesn't know what to do. Meanwhile ,the Dems are totally in the crapper. Their hope for 2020? Joe Biden! The crypt keeper will be almost 80! You can't make this stuff up!!!

Yeah, that's all the Fake news media is talking about today--Joe Biden. Then there was Obama giving some speech making him sound like the greatest thing that ever happened to the U.S. and knocking out ISIS to boot.

I like Trump, and I voted for him, but I don't want to hear this nonsense about Boeing and Air Force One. If he wants to take his own plane, let him take his own plane, but don't bore me with the details. It reminds me of when Obama wanted to keep his Blackberry, and the Secret Service didn't want him to keep the Blackberry. I think he kept the Blackberry. The news media doesn't have a clue about what's important anymore. And the people are so stupid, they just lap it up. As far as Boeing is concerned, they can just keep on selling planes to our enemies. It's just business as usual. They don't need to make Air Force One. That's just small potatoes!

@9:18. Trump is going to stop the waste--stop the over charges to the American people. It is anything but nonsense when Boeing is going to charge us $4 billion for a plane program and the president Elect says so. He knows planes. $4 billion is NOT small potatoes. And selling planes to the enemy? Wild.

As far as Obama's Blackberry, the Secret service and probably Homeland Security and every other security agency were afraid of hacking. They could not keep his phone secure. Blackberry put in more encryption devices as I recall and he was allowed to keep it. We know what happened to Hillary's e-mails on an unsecured server.

I would tell you to try doing a little research instead of slurping right wing news reports but then you and your "posters" wouldn't be so funny to laugh at. trumpy lied about the cost of the plane and the $50 billion dollar deal was already in place long before the ceo of trump university was elected. But you keep on feeding your low information voters what you wish the facts to be. trumpy insulted boeing because the ceo of boeing publicly stated that trump was full of b.s. and his trade deal threats were more b.s. so the tweeter king had to strike back. So presidential. but like his girl kellyanne says. If he's the president elect then anything he does is presidential. great.

How about Iran!

Well, since he's working on lowering costs, maybe he can work on my AT&T bills.

Boeing has a great website, so instead of guessing what the company does, or who their customers are, we can just type in Boeing, and then we will all be on the same page.

Brilliance 2:20. How did you get so damn smart?

Next, we can look up Raytheon. What I am suggesting is that all of these companies are Multi-Nationals, not necessarily American Companies, and they have their own priorities. They are primarily Defense Contractors, and their customers are any country in the world that can pay them.

They have to get U.S. permission to sell to certain countries such as Iran.

Raytheon is an American company that services globally.

And this is where the lobbyists come in.

Trump will be draining the swamp. I just hope he doesn't get soft on Dreamers.
