Donald J Trump

President elect, Donald Trump attack aircraft manufacturer, Boeing on Twitter on Tuesday, calling the U.S government to cancel the order for development of a new Air Force One.

The Air Force had signed a deal with Boeing in January and also in July to design certain parts of the new presidential aircraft, including its interior, electrical and power system, and maintenance systems.

The U.S. Government Accountability Office estimated in March said that the entire program would cost $3.2 billion from the 2010 through 2020 fiscal years, including $2 billion for research and development.

Trump in his tweet without citing evidence, said that the deal was going to cost taxpayers $4 billion.

Shortly after the tweet, the President-elect met with reporters at Trump Tower and said;

The plane is totally out of control. It’s going to be over $4 billion for Air Force One program and I think it’s ridiculous. I think Boeing is doing a little bit of a number. We want Boeing to make a lot of money, but not that much money.

It is not immediately clear if the President-elect will halt the deal with Boeing when he takes office in January. The tweet by Donald Trump also droves Boeing share  down 0.8% to $150.93 at 9:45 a.m.

Donald Trump himself owns a Boeing 757 aircraft, and used it during his campaign. He also owns Boeing shares as shown in his filing of a financial disclosure form during his presidential campaign.

Trump sold his Boeing stock worth between $50,001 and $100,000, but sold all his stocks in June.

Trump has been getting calls from different president ever since his shocking win in the November election, but one call has sparked outrage between Beijing and Washington after president-elect, Donald Trump and Taiwanese President, Ms Tsai called to congratulate Trump.

According to Trump transiton team, both Trump and Tsai had talked about "close economic, political, and security ties" in a phone call. 

The call had angered the Chinese government who had seen Taiwan as a breakaway province and the Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi has called the call a "petty trick" by Ms Tsai.

Taiwan Vs China Issue

The problem between the Taiwan and China goes back to 1949 when the Republic of China government (ROC) fled to Mainland Taiwan, and held the China's seat  on the UN Security Council and was recognised by other western countries as the only Chinese government.

In 1971, the diplomatic recognition was switched in UN, and Beijing was recognised, and the ROC government was forced away from the UN.

Only a few countries recognise Taiwan as a country, and that includes the US government.

Washington in 1979 accepted the "One China" concept, which states that Taiwan is part of China.

China has also warned Taiwan that it will use force if the country tries to gain independence from China, and has missiles pointing towards Taiwan.

The current Taiwanese president, Ms Tsai does not support the "One China" concept, and also the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP), Ms Tsai party has leaned towards independence from China.

Donald Trump Phone Call

The president-elect, Donald Trump before the election had called Ms Tsai to congratulate her on her winning the election in Taiwan, so in turn, Ms Tsai had decided to return the good gestures to Mr Trump.

The Trump phone call means that the US is turning its back on four decades of US protocol in Taiwan. A move that has alarmed China and might turn to anger.

One key prority of Chinese foreign policy is denying Taiwan of any feeling that it is an independent state.

Though the White house has said it knows nothing about the phone between both Mr Trump and Ms Tsai, and also confirm to China that it will stay afloat with its four decade policy of "One China" concept. 

President-elect, Donald Trump has picked former labour secretary and wife of Senate Majority Leader, Mitch McConnell, Elaine Chao, as transportation secretary. The new pick official announcement is expected to be announced later in the afternoon.

Elaine Chao served as the deputy secretary of transportation under President George H.W. Bush from 1989 to 1991.

Under the new administration, Chao is expected to help Trump get the infrastructure spending bill passed through Congress and start government-backed works projects, a role which might be complicated because of her relationship with the senate majority leader, Mitch McConnell, who will also be a critical player in the infrastructure bill negotiations.

President-elect, Donald Trump, since his victory has been busy with picking people that will work with him during his administration, and also have been busy with his Twitter account. The recent rant of Donald Trump was against CNN after they reported about his tweet on the recent election.

Donald Trump recently claimed that he would have won the popular votes, just as he won the electoral college if not for massive "voters fraud" that happened in some states. The President-elect then went further to retweet different tweets by his supporters who supported his motion of voter fraud.

CNN called the allegations of the president-elect into questions, and dismissed his allegations of voter fraud in the just concluded election as 'blatant and baseless'.

Trump after that targeted CNN Senior Washington Correspondent, Jeff Zeleny, retweeting a tweet that says "just another generic CNN part time wannabe journalist "

Donald Trump has been furious after Green party candidate, Jill Stein said that a recount should be done in some of the swing states where she had lost the election. She had submitted requests for a recount to Wisconsin, even though she only had 1% vote,a move that was later supported by the Hillary Clinton camp.

Trump has also said that voter fraud did occur in Virginia, California and New Hampshire, but there has been no indication of the fraud or evidence for the Donald Trump allegation.

 Jeff Zeleny, who seems unfazed with Donald's accusation replied with;

As Americans still writhe in the surprise victory of Donald J. Trump in the November election, a mosque in Northern California has just received a letter in the mail asking the Muslim community to leave the United States as there is a new sheriff in town (Donald Trump) and “He’s going to do to you Muslims what Hitler did to the Jews.”

The letter now treated as “hate motivated incident,” by police in San Jose was received in the mail by the Imam at Evergreen Islamic centre.

The full letter released by the  Council on American-Islamic Relations’ Bay Area chapter reads;

To the children of Satan, You Muslims are a vile and filthy people. Your mothers are whores and your fathers are dogs. You are evil. You worship the devil. But your day of reckoning has arrived.

There’s a new sheriff in town -- President Donald Trump. He’s going to cleanse America and make it shine again. And he’s going to start with you Muslims. He’s going to do to you Muslims what Hitler did to the Jews. You Muslims would be wise to pack your bags and get out of Dodge.

This is a great time for patriotic Americans. Love live President Trump and God bless the USA.

The group is now calling for increased police protection for local mosques
