Argument is dead in water, US government over pays for everything, including the M17 Sig Sauer handguns made in Germany. Also the WTO handed the US this opinion.
It's not just and accusation without a rebuttal. Do you really think they didn't consider all arguments, and their creditability is the problem?
Delta is a fantastic airline, it doesn't mean a ruling against their financial interest is automatically corrupt.

Pretty sure the M17 is made in New Hampshire

Is it fair to say that more people work for airlines in the US that fly and have on order a large number of airbuses than work at Boeing? Seems to me protecting Boeing hurts more Americans than not protecting Boeing. I know this isn’t a trump issue but man this is gonna sting I suspect.

Your posts in this thread once again display your ignorance.

Yes. Federal government policy of locking up innocent children (babies too) is wrong.

Could you imagine being in dire straits trying to do what you think is best and as a result someone takes away your baby.

Yes, if I broke another country’s laws I wouldn’t be surprised to find myself and or my children detained.

Seeking asylum is not a crime. Do you have kids?
