it seems it is all still a typica Pres Trump pipe dream.

Of course it is. How's that twin engine F-35 coming along?

Yeah, I read that article.

Exemplary grammar, spelling and syntax, wouldn't you say?

powered by nuclear propulsion system.

New power system upgrade after a day?

Zero of these things will be built. Has Congress approved the half trillion dollar cost for this little ego project?

I suspect it's the Japanese rail-gun, which they already mounted on a ship and tested.

Lewzer's namesake supership is not going to carry a Japanese weapon.

And yes, we have hyper-sonic missiles. The navy one is called Conventional Prompt Strike

Yeah. They were going to test fire one this year but it was put off to 2027. They spent a year and a half modifying the useless USS Zumwalt to carry it.

First 2 expected in 2028.

Pretty ambitious since they don't have a shipyard that can build one. Or a railgun that works. Or a hypersonic missile.

You mean before he gets impeached?

He said these abominations would be operational in 2.5 years. He'll have to shove something in the water by then.

From an AI cartoon drawing to a functioning warship would probably take 15 years at least. Probably 30, considering all the undeveloped technology involved.

And here I predicted he was just going to name an aircraft carrier after himself.

He may still have to do that. He'll never get one of these things online soon enough.

Maybe an empty hull that Vanky can smash a bottle of bubbly on to dedicate USS Lewzer, just before they cancel the program.

hauling around 500+ vertical launch tubes

This one has 128 but also dual Osprey hangars. And ray guns.

Supreme Court, in the dissent

Also know as the opinion of the losers.

What the Hell is Wrong with Trump anyhow?

He started out as a spoiled brat, then Daddy left him a huge pile of money that he wasted.

Then he turned into a successful con artist and eventually became President.

Now he has a lot of money and power, but not much of a mind left.

The only thing yet in question is if Lewzer will go full laughingstock and have these things painted gold.

In the drawings, that is. The ships have no chance of being built.

Estimated cost for this boondoggle is $10-$15 Billion per ship.

Turns out today's modern warship doesn't carry armor.

That's Lewzer's big beef. He wants them armoured. Big, badass steel hulls like the good old days. But prettier.

If you can see that Lewezer is just an idiot, it all makes more sense.

Do you have any evidence that different alloys or materials have been used

Lewzer doesn't want that. He wants good old US made steel. He said the modern ship hulls start to melt when a missile gets within 2 miles of them.

And adding a fourth arm to the nuclear deterrent? Really? I wonder why no one thought of surface ships as a viable second strike platform before? Maybe because it's a stupid idea?

The only thing that makes this idea less silly than the Zumwalt is the fact that none will ever be built.

OK, maybe not the biggest, but the most powerful?

Well, it will have a complement of at least three currently nonexistent naval weapons, so there's that.

censorship intentionally applied only to the United States?

It's possible. That would kind of make it like the "Gulf of America".

The new "battleship" is planned to be around 30,000-40,000 tons

Yamato Class was 71,659 tons.
Iowa Class was 57,540 tons.
Bismarck Class was 51,800 tons.

So, the USS Lewzer Class is nowhere near the biggest. Not even in the top 10.

unified in their animosity towards transgender Americans

That kinda talk can get you shot in the neck.

Lewzer tried to ban a book and now everyone wants to read it. That's what usually happens.

the rustiest garbage scow.

Nixon didn't get one either.

The rail guns will be powered by a turbine off the coal fired steam boiler

Not to mention the lasers. Must be burning "clean coal", since there does not seem to be any exhaust stacks on the renders. Must not be aesthetic enough.

Apparently this story streamed in Canada and is now spreading across the planet.

Pres Trump seems to be preparing to go to war with another country?

Someone is. Probably Miller.

Lewzer is too busy naming things after himself to be bothered with the minutia of conquering the planet.

electric rail guns

Wait until this naval design genius finds out that rail guns operate the same way as the Electromagnetic Aircraft Launch System catapults that he hates so much.

Does he know a rail gun won't work if it gets wet?

Flanked by renderings of the "Trump class" battleships at sea, Trump said he would take an active role in their design. "The US Navy will lead the design of these ships along with me because I'm a very aesthetic person," Trump said. Fitted with "guns and missiles a the highest level," hypersonic weapons, electric rail guns, cruise missiles and the "most sophisticated lasers in the world," the new battleships will be the largest ever built. They will each weigh between 30,000 and 40,000 tons, he said, and will be built in the United States.
