āPart of it is, they want to have all new. Instead of having the system that throws the aircraft off the (ship), which was always steam, they now have magnets,ā he said, according to the Post. āThey spent hundreds of millions of dollars, Iām hearing not great things about it. Itās frankly ridiculous.ā
Muskets.
That is all.Yo, Congressional Cowards?
25th Amendment.
Submarines should be powered by sails!
MOAR BLIMPZ!
Puerto Rico may have a different opinion when it comes to Trump and FEMA.
If we are going back to steam catapults on aircraft carriers, maybe we should convert the nuclear reactor powered ships to coal-powered steam. Hey, that would help the coal industry, which seems to be a priority of Still Stupid Behind The Glasses and Spanky.
Yeah, because if thereās one word that describes Trumpās approach, itās always been āfrugal.ā Good grief ā we have an imbecile for a President.
Clueless, incompetent and crookedā¦
Trump really nailed the trifectaā¦
I understand a big story is being done in a major newspaper talking about what a great Cabinet this isā
Canāt wait to see the cover.
Deputy Secretary of Defense Patrick Shanahan eventually stepped in, reportedly vowing to start bringing Trump receipts.
Is it just me or is that a funny line?
Here is Exhibit A, apparently from the same meeting:
Trump was quoted as saying by the Houston Chronicle. āPeople went out in their boats to watch the hurricane. That didnāt work out too well,ā
Asked about Trumpās claim, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott said he had āno information one way or the other about that.ā Marty Lancton, president of the Houston Professional Fire Fighters Association, appeared equally baffled. āI donāt even know how to respond to that,ā he told the Chronicle.
We could send them suggestions and stuff.
Shanahan may rethink his promise once he realizes everyone in the 7th Fleet ordered the foie gras and escargot appetizers before dinner.
" Instead of having the system that throws the aircraft off the (ship)"
Steam may be a bit too advanced for Grandpa Marmalade. Think rubber bands. Think more military jobs, needing more sailors to pull the aer-o-plane way back on deck before letting go. Think win-win.
Iām glad the meeting was such a success and so much planning took place to protect American citizens.
You have to read the POSTās full article, with its detailed readout of the meeting, to get the total effect.
And then the commenters saying oh, you liberals, with your silly ideas about what YOU think is important to discuss, and so what if our president wants to talk about a lot of other things while heās in a meeting meant to plan for hurricanes?
āI donāt even know how to respond to that.ā
The President jumped from subject to subject, making seemingly random requests of his Cabinet members and boasting about things he deemed accomplishments.
Shorter, TPMā¦"The president was his usual egotistical, inattentive, petty, uninformed self.
A bunch a grown men standing in a room looking at the ceiling while a huge elephant
is tossing shit every where.

Wait, what??
