Trump talked a big game throughout the election. Unfortunately, he was completely full of crap.
Trump is a LYAH. He made some YUGE promises for votes-and he let us down. Complete fraud.

Delta Air Lines: More than 80,000 employees
American Airlines: Over 118,000 employees
United Airlines: Around 86,000 employees
The list goes on...
Boeing: about 156,000 employees
To say that Boeing employs more than the airlines is a bit of an overstatement.

If you are referring to Boeing jobs, A Boeing employee will work for a couple of months building a 787 and pilots will fly them for 30+ years. Which plan will employ more workers for more hours? Boeing seems to have no problems selling planes (unless Trump tweets something threatening about them) so NAI would probably buy the planes without the deal anyway.

Policiticans care only about their reputation and numbers. He doesn't care who orders Boeing planes. If it increases job numbers and makes him look good he will do it so he can say look I created x US jobs.
Even if the company only hires half US pilots if it creates jobs to prop up numbers that's all he cares about. He doesn't care if it drags the domestic airline pay down. We care but he doesn't - he is already rich. All politicians already "got theirs". He needs to pad the numbers so when he runs in 4 years he can say he created more "US jobs".
