Complaining about alleged waste and fraud in government, Trump today expounded a new theory of magnets:

“And they have all magnetic elevators to lift up 25 planes at a time, 20 planes at a time," Trump continued. “And instead of using hydraulics, like on tractors that can handle anything from hurricanes to lightning to anything, they use magnets.”

“It’s a new theory. Magnets are going to lift the planes up and it doesn’t work. And they had billions and billions of dollars of cost overruns.”
