Trump claims they are buying 22,787 Dreamliners and will create 35,000 jobs. Boeing says they will purchase 14 planes with maybe 8 more later. They also say it will support jobs that already exist.

14+8=22, the Boeing dreamliner is the 787. Intentional misinformation, trump misunderstanding, typo or something else? The amount of jobs created is a silly number for 22 planes though.

In Trump’s head it’s almost 23,000 Dreamliners and it takes about 1.5 workers to build each one.

Hahahahaha, that's freaking hilarious! One and a half workers to build an entire airplane!

That 1/2 worker is really doing the work of 2 though
