Pretty good, indeed…
President Trump on Wednesday sealed a $200 billion deal for Qatar Airways to purchase 160 jets from Boeing — marking the largest aircraft order in the company’s history.
The agreement was signed during Trump’s visit to Doha, alongside Qatar’s Emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, and Boeing CEO Kelly Ortberg.
“It’s the largest order of jets in Boeing history. That’s pretty good,” Trump said with a grin.
The emir said the pact takes the U.S.-Qatar relationship to “another level.”
“I want to thank you, Mr. President, for this historic visit,” the emir said.

From The Washington Times:
Under the agreement, Qatar will purchase wide-body jets and will have an option to buy more. The deal aligns with Mr. Trump’s push for Gulf states such as Qatar and Saudi Arabia to invest in U.S. manufacturing.
“The Middle East is being talked about all over the world and we’re having a lot to do with it,” he said.
