Trump bought Boeing stock, then announced a 200 plane order

financeMay 15, 2026191,536

Donald Trump bought Boeing shares days before publicly announcing a deal for China to purchase 200 Boeing planes. 24/7 Wall St. calls the agreement historic and says Boeing and GE Aerospace would be the primary beneficiaries of the 200-plane sale. The timing of the stock purchase ahead of the announcement has raised conflict-of-interest and ethics questions because those holdings could profit from government-linked commercial deals.

Amazon AMD Axon Boeing Microsoft Nvidia Palantir Just a few of the major corporations and government contractors Trump has bought stock in lately. Many of his trades directly coincided with regulatory decisions his administration made that affected their profits. Insider trader-in-chief.

Trump’s agenda 1) stay out of jail 2) exploit every resource to fatten my wallet 3) revenge That’s it. No policies. No ideas. No solutions. No sympathy for Americans. How did so many people not see this?

This laughably impeachable thing doesn't reach the top 100 of Trump's corrupt atrocities.

Insider trading used to be a scandal. Now it’s apparently economic policy.

—Trump traded tech stocks worth hundreds of millions ahead of favorable policy moves— "New ethics filings show the president bought Nvidia, AMD, and Axon shares days before his administration issued favorable decisions for each company"

A grifter just has to grift. The US Government is the best business that Trump has ever had. He’s bankrupting it but getting rich in the process.

Boeing has serious quality issues. So good luck with that.
