@mattwilcox@mstdn.social @quixoticgeek@social.v.st Hell, for that matter, I can’t see the US as being capable of building WWII Fletcher class destroyer in less than a decade…

@arcadiagt5@mstdn.social To me it's just "old out of touch man doesn't listen to advisors, because he fired all his competent advisors" Battleships? Aircraft carriers? In 2026? Bitch it's all about drones. Far cheaper, far more effective. A ship? Sinkable in one good hit and billions of $ down the pisser. He's thinking like the Brits did right before Aircraft carriers made almost our whole navy obsolete inside a decade. The tools have changed. Why not build a nice wooden sail ship as well @quixoticgeek@social.v.st
