Rumors swirl about F-35 contract [View all]
Ordinarily I won’t give any weight to “Trump says” comments or articles in The New York Post.

From Lydia Moynihan at Twitter:
Scoop: Trump told Lockheed CEO Jim Taiclet that he plans to cancel the $1T F-35 contract that was struck last month. "China is winning the fighter race while Lockheed sends executives to DEI camps," a source close to Trumps said of the decision.
