Oops.turns out trade wars have consequences. Boeing already has lost lots of orders due to reliability. Now they have a few billion of Chinese orders that likely won't be fulfilled.

Don't worry. With all those tourists Trump is attracting at the moment, I'm sure they'll need all those planes for travel within the US. Apparently everyone will be so rich there soon they can all buy their own too. I'm sure they don't need China /s
