Yep, sounds like a battery with a dead cell.
well i tried to jumped and nothing,
dashboard lights radio a/c everything comes ON but not a clicking sound or try to turn or start, if battery it should start, if starter at least it would click at starter area correct?
 
Next, I would disconnect the battery terminals, clean them and the posts, reconnect TIGHTLY and try again.

If no joy, next have your battery tested. If good, then you may have a bad starter.

well i bought a New Battery, had starter tested and no luck, still same.
 
Check starter, battery first!
removed side panel by fuse panel, removed fusses one by one to see if blown, All good, when turn switch to ignition I can hear/feel a click on box under fuse panel. if that helps, I am clueless what to do next.

If it were me, I'd spray contact cleaner deep into my ignition switch. Cycle the key back and forth many times. It's worked for me in the past.
