Genius - I consider Trumps response about the F35 and F18 Super Hornet the same thing we do at the car dealer. Did not like how things were going at the Porsche dealer, so we tell the guy we are going to take a walk over to Audi and see what they say. Classic negotiation, always keep at least 2 things on the table. The Govt has never worked like this, winning
That's what I'm thinking, he doesn't intend to kill the program, he's negotiating a better deal.
He might even throw a curve and say he might just buy the Rafale instead.
