Friends, exciting news! President Trump has ordered the construction of "Trump class" battleships, bristling with high-tech armaments and simply way, way better and Trumpier than anything that has ever graced the murky deep before. Bravo! I'm all for a U.S. Navy that is not only powerful but majestic and awe-inspiring. What's more, we may need Trump's "golden fleet" when we go to war with Denmark in order to conquer Greenland. Okay, a tugboat would probably suffice to take out the Danes, but better safe than sorry! Take note that today DJT appointed a special envoy to coordinate our Greenland acquisition strategy, which, I fear, will have to incorporate the use of force at some stage, because those snotty Europeans are not giving up their great big hunk of ice just because we ask them nicely.

In other news, the Dems may have a competitive presidential primary looming in 2028, but most signs point to a fairly uneventful contest on the GOP side. J.D. Vance is towering over all other prospects. At this stage, he has my full support, although it is, lest we forget, a long way to 2028 and much can change. Maybe Elon will toss his (aluminum foil) hat into the ring?
Dr. waddy from Jack: It is our custom to name a class of ships after the first ship of the class. If the first ship's name is to be "USS Defiant" , then traditionally "Defiant" would be the name of the class. So its unclear to me if it is actually to be "The Trump Class".
ReplyDeleteIt has also been recent American custom to name carriers after celebrated Presidents, though not during their tenure. A ship bearing President Trump's name would be an honor he is earning. Frankly, I hope a carrier is named after Presldent Nixon . And the one named Doris Miller, which I understand to be under construction, bears a name deserving such an honor. Doris Miller was the Messman who fought Japanese planes at Pearl Harbor and died in later naval combat.
Oh, I hope we don't tangle with those likeable Danes. Yes, Greenland is of high strategic importance to us but I'm sure our Navy could repel a Chinese invasion fleet or, in the unlikely event of a Danish invitation to the same, persuade Denmark to relent. Lets offer Denmark the NYC area in exchange for Greenland .
Dr. waddy from Jack: Uhh, not having the authority the British monarch has we cannot (apparently S. African Jan Christian Smuts was considered for replacement of Churchill had he fallen) place S. African Elon in our White House (can we?)
ReplyDeleteA Nixonian carrier would be neat-o! I hope Trump insists on it.
ReplyDeleteNow, trading a blue city or state for Greenland is a great idea! The Danes could be persuaded that the residents thereof were the functional equivalent of refugees from Trumpian fascism. To decline the offer would be to let the fascists win! I say it's worth a try.
Dr. Waddy from Jack: Malaysia threw Singapore out of their federation. Malays were tired of being dominated by the Chinese majority in Singapore . Wish we could do that with the amoeba on the Hudson but we cannot so wrong the millions of faithful Americans there who are about to feel the Marxist tread. They will need the protection afforded them by their American citizenship to get them through the ordeal to come presently.
ReplyDeleteHmm. I didn't realize that Malaysia had disgorged Singapore of its own volition. I wouldn't rule anything out! Redistricting sure would become easier if we cut loose, oh, 100 million Democrats...
