(Mario Tama--Getty Images) Mario Tama—Getty Images  by [Charlotte Alter](https://time.com/author/charlotte-alter/)  ## Charlotte Alter Senior Correspondent Feb 17, 2017 3:52 PM UTC President [Donald Trump](http://time.com/4672974/donald-trump-white-house-chaos/) is traveling to South Carolina on Friday to meet with airplane company Boeing about jobs. The President [tweeted](https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/832554772318322688) Friday that he was “going to Charleston, South Carolina to spend time with Boeing and talk jobs.” Trump has already met once with Boeing CEO Dennis Muilenburg about a replacement for [Air Force One](http://www.thedrive.com/the-war-zone/7188/secretary-of-defense-mattis-orders-reviews-of-f-35-air-force-one-replacement-programs), a meeting which Muilenburg called “very productive.” The visit comes shortly after [an attempt to unionize the plant failed](http://www.cnbc.com/2017/02/17/trump-heads-to-boeing-facility-to-talk-jobs.html). Trump has periodically visited companies and factories outside of Washington to tout his campaign promise to save American jobs. In December, Trump visited a Carrier plant in Indiana and boasted that he was “keeping” 1,100 jobs that the company had planned to ship to Mexico. The real number was actually [800](http://money.cnn.com/2016/12/02/news/companies/trump-carrier-plant-mexico/). And the deal also included a $16 million investment in the facility, which Carrier’s corporate parent said would be invested into automation — which is likely to cost more jobs later. His event is schedule to start at about 1 p.m. E.T.
