US can use tariffs to fund export bank and sell Boeings to Singapore. Ultimately we have no protections if Europe wants to give Singapore planes for free to compete against Delta.

Besides import export bank increases production volume lowering unit cost which saves airlines money.
Delta complained because we now know they aren't planning on buying Boeing. They don't mind unit production cost going up, since they're not shopping for them, and prefer a subsidized Airbus, then campaign to duck the tariff.
They truly are best of business.
