General Atomics, the company that builds the electromagnetic aircraft launch system for the Ford-class carriers, said Trump’s decision to revert to steam “warrants careful reconsideration”. The company told the Journal its work on the new ship is nearly 50% complete and “changing course now would introduce significant cost, schedule, and integration risks”.
Senator Mark Kelly, an Arizona Democrat and a former astronaut, was more blunt in his reaction to the news.
“I’ve launched off the front of aircraft carriers hundreds of times, have a Master’s degree in aeronautical engineering, and am a test pilot and even I wouldn’t suggest to the Navy how to engineer specific systems on its ships,” Kelly wrote on social media. “Donald Trump should stick to what he knows best – ballrooms, bankruptcy, and bullshit.”
Also, in my head, I prefer versions where people talk to him and pointedly don’t use things like “sir” or “mr. president” to address him. Just call him by his first name, or better yet, “hey, DUMBASS…{proceeds to some question or comment}”
I would so love to see that, LOL.
Lmao right? I’m shocked that it doesn’t happen more often and also would love to see him called out for what he is. I guess they have changed up the press pool so much that its mostly pro trump gooners asking the “tough” questions now so his feelings don’t get hurt. Hey Dumbass does have a certain ring to it 😂
Heck, even the ones he considers oppositional and bitches all the time about (like Kaitlan, LOL - she used to work for the Daily Caller, FFS) are way too respectful to him.
yah he doesn’t deserve all that respect that the office of the president used to demand, once you shit yourself at the resolute desk…you should be called out as a piece of shit from that point on.
