Probably the worst ship that can be built, if the current admnistration is an indicator. Big as a carrier, but oblong instead of ship-shaped, and propelled by a standard-sized outboard motor sold by one of Trumps relatives for $fortune.
Will also sink on launch, because including a bottom was too expensive.
including a bottom was too expensive
You’d think Trump-class would have a massive bottom.
Or a gold-plated one.
Warship sized
He’s got hips
like battleships!
Trump ass battle hips
What in the bingo 2025??
Will these Trump class ships be really really huge but have no substance?
It’ll be sold on late night TV? Operators are standing by, call now!
So they’ll be shitty, ineffective and overpriced?
Don’t forget tacky.
But an important thing for ships, never a hole in one!
so you’re saying they’ll be plated with fake gold?
Plated with lots of fake gold and shitty fonts.
And big bottomed. blobby shaped hulls. Slow and trashy.
Well… They are going to be American made.
Seems like he might find a way to leave a contractor unpaid. Maybe several contractors.
And a pedophile human trafficker.
I mean, that would’ve been true anyway, since battleships haven’t been useful since WWII.
Trump’s involvement just means they’ll be extremely so.
They were actually still worthwhile up into Korea but the Korean war is the weird middle child between WW2 and Vietnam that everyone forgets about.
It’s not that I forgot about the Korean War, it’s that I wasn’t aware it had any significant naval component for which battleships were relevant.
They were used for artillery along coastal regions, while not exactly the designated purpose of such ships it was highly effective. But yeah it was basically the last hoora of an aging design that had already started to become obsolete.
It will literally have a bridge to nowhere
Also completely incapable of telling friend from foe
Because it will be full of Bubba’s sea men?
Sounds like the kind of warship you’d buy from AliExpress
Shiny with fake gold trim everywhere, and gold colored flames painted on the side.
I’m picturing all those Wish website memes…
This is not something a sane president would do. They would not want to win a nobel peace prize then want to attach their name to the deadliest tier of a weapon.
It isn’t the deadliest tier of a weapon. Battleships have been obsolete for over 80 years now.
I mean… maybe look up the Nobel family and their contributions to the world.
Like, I sincerely doubt that it is the motivation at all. But… it would be ridiculously fitting.
Dave Eggers described him as having a “formidable intellect”!
What a vainglorious asshole.
Utter embarrassment… anyone associated with this idiot ought to be profoundly ashamed of themselves…
I honestly think so many of them went so balls-deep on embracing this loser that they cannot admit to themselves, never mind others, just how wrong they were.
They say that family and friends of psychopathic serial killers have that problem. Can’t viscerally admit that they accepted the killer into the family.
The vast majority of them aren’t in the denial stages, because they’re still ignorant of everything bad that he’s doing.
Remember, republicans have been maintaining a media ecosystem (Fox News and select radio pundits) for 40+ years spoonfeeding lies to these people, telling them at every opportunity that all other media networks besides them are liars and out to get them/destroy the country/etc. It’s a relationship not unlike domestic abuse, with the abuser telling their victim that no one will “love” and “care for” them as much as the abuser does.
Fox News isn’t reporting on Trump’s low poll numbers, or rising prices, or that ICE is kidnapping innocent people, or that the govt released fully redacted Epstein files, or the damning unredacted files implicating Trump, or any other thing that could put this administration in a negative light. Their bottom line and continued existence depends on them keeping their audience divorced from reality. And their audience largely considers any other media besides Fox News as fake, so these ghouls must keep the grift going and the lies flowing.
Something’s badly wrong with those people. Anyone who’s not comatose knows that anyone who tells you that everyone but them is a liar, is a fucking liar.
Oh, so you’ve met my parents?
Man’s scrambling to change media and public focus. Scrambling.
Design highlights of the new #Trump class #battleships:
- Very wide amidships
- Capable of wrecking entire countries
- Loudest engines ever
- Largely funded by Saudis
- Solid gold toilets
- Totally full of bilge water.
He has some kind of weird fixation on hydraulic vs. electric, too, so…have to incorporate that somehow.
This guy is just so fuckin’ weird.
One tiny gun.
“At least it goes off quickly.”
All tiny hands on deck!
Everything leans slightly to the bow
The only way he can have any class
Bit of trivia: the mid-life refit program for Canada’s Iroquois-class destroyer was called TRUMP: Tribal Refit and Update Modernisation Program.
That program happened in the 1980s, so Mr. Trump is 40ish years late to claim the name.
