I caught the orange man talking on the radio, as I am not american I knew it was going to be something stupid but this? I thought it was a joke, an onion like thing, but nooooo. What sealed it is when in the very speech about the new 100x battleships, trump stated that he did not know why the us stopped using battleships....

I guess nobody bothered to ask an admiral how long it took to design a new class of ship. I don't think trump has enough years left in him to see the first one built.

They just failed at the last set of ships! Can they not even finish the first failure before starting a new one?

Oh and this one is based on some sort of coastguard design, I guess that will help?

think of it this way. the trump class of battleships will be the first battleships of the 21st century to be a complete failure. that's quite a legacy.
