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…

    There’s a very good reason why the Iowa class battleships, built during the second world war, were still firing their guns in anger during the Gulf War.

    Because Reagan wanted a 600-ship navy without having the capacity to build enough new hulls and Congress is full of nostalgia blinded boomers who wouldn’t let the navy retire them no matter how much they begged?
