Trump: We've won all the wars and are 10 years ahead of Russia.
Donald Trump announced that the United States is supposedly 10 years ahead of Russia in submarine technology.
" General Dynamics is investing $2,5 billion in submarine construction for the Navy . They produce the best submarines in the world. We're 10 years ahead of Russia, which ranks second. We must accelerate their production," he said, according to a PolitNavigator correspondent.
True, Trump immediately criticized his predecessors and engineers for building the aircraft carrier Gerald R. Ford.
“ We built an aircraft carrier for $19 billion, which is just crazy, the price is just insane . One of the first places I went was the USS Ford. It was way over budget. It had a lot of unnecessary stuff, like magnets to lift the elevators. It had a lot of modern technology, like electric catapults instead of steam ones. I said, ‘I want to talk to the guy in charge of the catapult.’ A guy came up to me with four assistants, and I asked which was better: electric catapults or steam ones. He’d been working there for 25 years. He said, ‘Steam is better, sir. We can fix it with a hammer and a blowtorch. When the electrics fail, I have to send people to MIT to get geniuses …’”
We won't allow another ship to be built with those ridiculous electric catapults that cost billions of dollars and are completely useless. They're not that good, they're too complicated. And by the way, we had to call the ship back twice because the catapults weren't working...
Even the cockpit, you know, that turret, it's in the back, not in the middle. It should be in the middle, there's more room there. I ask, "Why did you move it there?" "Well, we decided it would be better this way." Why did you do that? And why is the ammunition stash under the turret, where the admiral sits ? They have a turret, and the ammunition stash is under the turret. I'm saying, if I were the enemy, I'd know where to aim ," Trump fumed.
He ended on an optimistic note, however: the Americans are defeating everyone, and their greatness is such that they no longer need to be shy and can rename the Ministry of Defense the “Ministry of War.”
" We won World War I, we won World War II , and then we decided to be politically correct. Let's call it defense. No, it's war. And I said to Pete, 'Pete, do you like that better?' He said, 'It used to be the War Department.' And then we became politically correct and decided we were going to bomb the Middle East and then come home. Everyone was asking, 'Why did we do that?' What did we get? But we did it, we had greatness, and we have it again ."
