Trump negotiated the price down after balking at the hefty original price tag two weeks ago.
The real estate mogul knows something about plane costs: He owns several airplanes, including a Boeing 757.
Sean Spicer, communications director of the Republican National Committee, shared the good news on Twitter.

After meeting with Trump, Boeing CEO Dennis Muilenburg praised the brash billionaire for his excellent “business head” and promised Air Force One will be built for less than the original quoted price.
“We’re going to get it done for less than that,” Muilenburg said. “I was able to give the president-elect my personal commitment on behalf of the Boeing Co.”

During his campaign, Trump repeatedly promised to weed out “waste, fraud and abuse” in the government, which is buckling under a $19 trillion national debt.
“You have tremendous waste, fraud, and abuse. That we’re going to take care of,” Trump vowed.
