Trump discusses NATO and Canada during fighter jet announcement

During a recent press conference in the Oval Office, President Donald Trump announced a new contract with Boeing to create the F-47 fighter jet. He was accompanied by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. Trump spoke about the technology and size of the plane but did not disclose any pricing details. This lack of clarity has raised concerns about transparency in his administration. When asked about NATO, Trump claimed he had saved the alliance, which he said was nearly defunct before his involvement. He also made headlines when discussing the idea of making Canada the 51st state, describing borders as “artificial lines” drawn on maps. In response to questions about illegal deportations of migrants, Trump defended the process, stating that there was a strong vetting in place. He seemed to sidestep responsibility by saying the process would continue in El Salvador. Trump also dismissed reports that his associate, Elon Musk, would learn about sensitive military plans regarding China. He claimed these reports were fabricated and criticized the media for a lack of honesty. Overall, the press conference highlighted some of Trump's controversial views and approaches to governance.
