If it weren't a fucking aircraft carrier, maybe. However, we've got so few of them, and we're struggling with making new ones, that I don't think that's going to happen. It's not that I think Trump cares about the future of America, but someone down the chain probably does, and thinks we need these ships.

For Trump, he'd be the first president to lose a carrier since WWII I believe. He lose so much support from the pro-military side that he probably wouldn't do it. A smaller more replaceable ship would maybe get this treatment, but not a carrier.
