Yeah, because Boeing has had a really bad reputation for several decades, it’s completely out of the mainstream to suggest they may have done a good job on something. Morons

Ok - who promoted Amazon, Google and Facebook support during Obama’s tenure and why doesn’t CREW (a leftist org) go after them?

Shanahan is the first person to lead the DOD in about 70 years with virtually no government or policy experience.

It hasn't been 70 years since McNamara was SecDef.

Unless you count McNamara's time in the Army Air Corps during WWII.

Boeing’s up against it right now, and deservedly so. But I believe they can come back. I really like the Airbus A-321 a lot too. So, no sour grapes.

Next Gens. We’ll see.

Shanahan worked at Boeing for more than 30 years

I would hope that Shanahan is completely divested of any interest or investments in Boeing. Even going back to work for them after his DOD stint would be a huge ethical problem.

As for the complaint, the specific case of him pushing for the F-15X over the F-35A could be viewed as a strategic move, with the 15X acting as a force multiplier with the F-22/F35. Occasionally, SECDEF's disagree with the brass. Lots of brass disagreed with Rumsfeld during GW1, and in hindsight his strategy was brilliant.

Purposely put in all-caps, so CREW could make you think a flight crew was complaining.
