President Donald Trump said on Tuesday that the United States would help defense contractors to boost production of military equipment.

"We make the best military equipment by far... That's why everybody wants to buy our equipment and that's why we're going to step up these contractors now that make it," Trump said during a meeting with cabinet officials at the White House.

"They're brilliant, but they make it too slow and we have to step them up and let them make it at a much higher rate," he said.
