President Donald Trump's trip to Qatar is off to a flying start. Like Saudi Arabia a day earlier, Qatar didn't bother waiting for Trump to land before setting out to impress him with a fighter jet escort.

Donald Trump is the most powerful and famous person on the planet, at the helm of the biggest economy and the strongest military.

The White House said the deal would support 154,000 jobs in the US each year of production and marked the largest-ever order of 787 Dreamliners, a wide-body jet used for longer flights.

President Donald Trump opened his four-day Mideast trip on Tuesday arriving in Saudi Arabia, the first leg of his three-nation visit this week meant to tackle multiple crises and conflicts across the region.
