https://www.wsj.com/politics/national-security/trump-hegseth-new-warship-the-battleship-63367854President Trump will announce Monday that the Navy is to build a new “Trump-class” battleship, which will become the centerpiece of the president’s vision for a new “Golden Fleet,” according to a U.S. official.The news follows the Navy’s announcement last week that it will commission a new class of frigates. Trump has for years advocated for revamping America’s fleet of warships, which he has said are “terrible-looking” and covered in rust. In his first term, he called for a return to steam-powered catapults to launch jets from aircraft carriers, in a move that wasn’t successful, and complained about the aesthetics of the Navy’s destroyers. He has been personally involved in crafting plans for the Golden Fleet, The Wall Street Journal previously reported. The first ship in the class will be the USS Defiant, the official said.The new battleship will be an upgrade to the Navy’s Arleigh Burke-class destroyers, which are the workhorse of the current fleet and which Trump has compared unfavorably to rival navies, according to the U.S. official and another person familiar with the discussions. The “battleship” name harks back to the ships with large main guns used until the end of the Cold War, but the new ships will feature a next-generation design.Another U.S. official said the president would make an announcement on Monday afternoon alongside Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and Navy Secretary John Phelan, but wouldn’t comment on the specifics of the announcement.
>that the Navy is to build a new “Trump-class” battleship>battleshipNo, it isn't. And anyone shameless enough to greenlight any spending for this nonsense deserves to have their career ended the second sanity gains power again.
>>1468301>USS DefiantWill it be overpowered for it's size, be armed with phaser cannons, and have a cloaking device loaned by the Romulans, Trump?
overpriced and ineffective.it's a good fit
Another thing that should be cancelled the second a democrat with balls and brains takes power.
Put Trump on everything...
>>1468315You think they won't after getting rid of that which is cheap, gaudy, and not in fitting with the White House? And then remove all the gold decorations
He's really tempting fate getting all these things normally reserved for dead people named after him.
>>1468320Why not just try to take the shot like all the other Democrat terrorists?
>>1468323People who haven't been brainrotted by the internet like you tend to not try to emulate imaginary people
>Why not just try to take the shot like all the other Democrat terrorists?The USS John F. Kennedy: named after a WWII hero in the US Navy.The USS Gerald R. Ford: named after someone who served in the US Navy.Wouldn't surprise me if in the near future there's a tank named the Eisenhower: after the Supreme Commander of the Allies in WWII.I hear there's going to be a new tank named the M-0 'Hegseth': a mobile septic tank
>>1468301https://i.postimg.cc/9XpzhcXS/uss-defiant-trump-class.pngNice art for the boxes of model kits by Airfix, Revell or Tamiya, Trump.Remember the kit by Testor, Monogram & Italieri of the 'F-19' stealth fighter?
>>1468301Images of the 'Trump Class' destroyer were released today, showing the oversized, aging battleship trying to limply dock with a series of in-construction destroyers. "It was a bit absurd," said a Trump aide, speaking as an anonymous source. "Trump kept trying to pretend the destroyers were of working age and wanted to house the Trump class carrier, but anyone in their right mind could see those little ships weren't developed enough and were trying to get away from the docking procedure.""Its a pretty sad distraction from Trumps raping of multiple underaged girls with his friend Jeffrey Epstein."
>>1468309Gonna end the Dominion War 200 years before it starts
>>1468301>which will become the centerpiece of the president’s vision for a new “Golden Fleet,” according to a U.S. official.Knowing him he will probably have them painted a metallic gold color.>>1468338kek
>>1468364Trump would absolutely sell out the federation to the Dominion>>1468318>Rename or scrap the trump class>Level the epstein ballroom and rebuild the east wing>Remove trump's name from the Kennedy Memorial Center >Replant the Rose Garden>Remove his gaudy goldWhat else?
>>1468403Hey let's be fair. They're probably just gonna have to rebuild the east wing since Trump's ballroom project keeps losing builders and rising in price.
I remember playing with toys in the bathtub but I didn't hold press conferences about em
>>1468413That's because it's a scam to just pocket the money.If we had a democrat with balls he'd invoke the emoluments clause and just seize all of the money trump has gotten during his presidency and give the republicans on the court the middle finger by using their ruling that the president is king against them.The money seized should easily pay for the restorations.
It’s been a while since we did this…
>>1468338Source?
>>1468413Trump has a long history of not paying builders, only way that thing gets built is if someone forces him to pay up front or some superfan with a huge company does it for free knowing for almost certain that they won't get paid. And in either case, there's a good chance that the company agreeing to do the work is also scamming the government for all it's worth and won't complete it even with money in hand.
>>1468479It isn't just the builders; he legitimately doesn't even have a blueprint yet. Just concept images, and even those resulted in the initial lead designer quitting because Trump kept insisting it be built at a scale that eclipsed the main White House and he kept pointing out how that was retarded.I'm not surprised. You know how Trump bankrupted a casino? Well the reason for that was less it failing as a casino and more that Trump demanded it put out spectacle after spectacle to look bigger and brighter even after said spectacles were well past exhausting their budget and earnings. It collapsed under the weight of Trump's need to the center of attention at all times and so will this fucking ballroom.
This video is basically one of trump's major policies for this second regime with him trying to smear his name onto everythinghttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AYURxfaTdpYThe best punishment is wiping him from the history books.
And these wonderful new Trump Warships will of course have lifebuoys made out of pure gold…
The UaSS tRump
>>1468521Shut up dummy, the hulls will have gold veneer>>1468413>Trump's ballroom projectAka the Obama wing.I hope Trump lives long enough to see this change
>>1468301They're calling them the Lolita Cruisers and every one is equipped with a rape station.
>>1468582>the Obama wingThe wing has existed since the 1900s, and no, Trump won't live long enough to see his shitty ballroom finished because nobody wants to work on it anymore and the ones who left kept saying there's tons of code violations and complications, so if it ever DOES get finished, it'll probably collapse and kill everyone inside, hopefully loads of his sycophants. It's like symbolism for his entire political career.
Tells you it can float better than any ship ever made and then sinks faster while blaming other boats for the rough waters? Is it going to be a vessel used for piracy? That would be fitting.
