Truth, Please!

Trump tweeted and then said in person that $4 billion was too expensive for a new Air Force One.  David Faber, on CNBC, who ahs amazing amounts of information at his fingertips, declared that the most recent public information was a cost of one million and change for 2 new Air Force One planes.  He was unable to get a clarification from Boeing so far. 
Surely Trump knows that Air Force One is a moving secure Oval Office.  Let's look closely at the costs - security, development programs involved, number of planes, cost overruns, agreed upon initial costs, etc. 
These glib pronouncements continue to undermine faith in government.  How can this be combtted when glib pronouncements, if not lies, pour forth?
Where is the truth?
