A Solid Gold Battleship

 

 

Trump announced he wanted a new battleship or ships named for him of course. 

Specs for the first ship include:

• 800 feet in length
• 30,000 to 40,000 tons displacement
• Twelve new nuclear capable missile launch capacity

Potential issues:

Who will build it?

Overcoming other ship building issues of the past.

Can the rail gun be resurrected?

Crew management issues? 

Wouldn't smaller and more be better than one ship?

Is it needed at all? 

 There are many better places $15 billion can be spent aren't there. 

What happened to waste, fraud and abuse? 

Will Trump tart it up covering the battleship with gold as he has done with the White House? 

Or worse is he planning an unnecessary war?
