The Rhode Island section was questionable. RI has a population of about 1 million people, the UAE just over 9 million, and Qatar another 2 million. Those ME3 numbers include expats living in those countries, primarily those from the poor countries of southern Asia and Africa and to a lesser extent westerners. If you only account for native Emirates and Qataris then those numbers are much closer.

Of course, two sides to the story and the truth thing, but the fact That they have more wide bodies on order than us and china combined says something. China more than us even

I hope he is not losing more sleep over this whole thing. He is going to be exhausted!

Unfortunately, Trump isn't going to lift a finger to help the US airline industry compete with the ME3 so Ed's little pep speech won't amount to anything tangible.

Despite his claim that he wants fair trade deals, Trump has a personal stake in a good relationship with the UAE due to his business. He doesn't strike me as the type of guy to take one for the team to further the cause of fair trade or justice. Add in his obsession with Boeing and this issues is DOA.

Propaganda geared for the unsuspecting, while he is outsourcing all of our wide body flying to cheaper run airlines utilizing JVs, codeshares and investments. All he worries about is his bonus, paycheck, Miami penthouses and pension.

BF,

Find me a lot near you. In 2 years, Im going to build my mansion. Instead of caviar and Dom, I will have Kirkland burgers and buds. When the Happy hour flag is raised, you know its time to come over!
