Highlighting the promise he made during his campaigning, President Donald Trump has said that his administration is going to fight for every last American job.

"We're going to fight for every last American job," the New York Times quoted Trump as saying to the employees of a Boeing factory in South Carolina.

Trump was on a visit to the Boeing factory for the launch of its new Dreamliner aircraft.

"God bless Boeing. What can look so beautiful at 30? An airplane," he said at the launch of the aircraft.

Trump reiterated that the cost of Air Force One from Boeing was too high and his administration was negotiating for the price.

He said Pentagon would consider buying more Boeing F/A-18 fighters if Lockheed Martin does not keep lowering the price of the F-35 that it had planned to order.
