Nothing coded about this, I guess.
How often do the Tone Police in the Murc's Law Media scold and chastise the liberals for daring to say the obvious out loud - that the Republican Party is filled with racists and donnie is their favorite guy for this reason?
The Navy commission came amid broader efforts in the Pentagon under Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth to remove names selected for what the administration considers diversity, equity, and inclusion purposes.
In other words, Racism.
Funny thing, the anti-DEI people are usually crying that this should be a meritocracy. Don't fill diversity quotas, honour the worthy people, they say.
Let's see here. Should they name the aircraft carrier after a war hero, or the bone spurs guy? Hmm, this is a toughie.
The first US war hero of the second world war. A man who missed out on being awarded the Medal of Honor due to the Secretary of the Navy being racist. Why would they ever name a ship after that guy when they could name one after a draft dodging dodderer instead?
The ship is not expected to be delivered until 2034
Why do they bother? It's not like the ship will still be named after Trump by the time it's built even if it's named after him now.
Why do they bother?
To pacify a diaper soiling orange baby. Once out of office, the Trump name is getting dropped like a trud...unless this fascist trend continues.
Looking at you Palm Beach airport
While simultaneously he shits on that one boat with an unreasonable duration at sea, he steals the glory of an actual solier, and still finds a way to stroke his own ego while he's at it. Not to mention the cost at tax payers expense of whatever bureaucratic ripples this sends out.
He's going to die. They're going to uncover truly horrific things of unprecedented scope, and then to save face they're going to paint him as some sort of mastermind. I'm going to have to grow old and die myself as they contort Turnip's career as some sort of Machiavellian genius, when in fact he has all the nuances of a screeching adolescentwith a negative kill ratio on counter strike. They will build the myth to preserve the institution, but I'll never forget how brazen and clumsy he was or how complicit are the people warming themselves on the flaming wreckage he leaves in his wake.
I've long now made the point that although I knew fascism would come with a flag in one hand and a bible in the other, and in our lifetimes, I never dreamed it would be so fucking stupid.
I imagined more calculating and rational evil leaders. After seeing this, now I am starting to wonder if like hitler and stalin were also a lot dumber than I give them credit for.
Stalin got his start in the bolshevik party as a fundraiser. He robbed banks. Not with a stick up, not with safe cracking. He would roll up with a team, throw some grenades into the building, run in as the dust settled, grab the cash, then throw grenades around dthr Street the cover the getaway.
Stalin was a crazy dumbass willing to kill dozens of innocents for money.
Hitler was an Incel. His college roommate told the world about how he obsessed over a young woman for months, said they were fated to be together, but never got the courage to speak to her.
He carried a horsehip everywhere and hit people that passed him off.
He made people call him "Herr wulf" (Mr wolf) as a badass nickname. This is why his bunker in Berlin was called the wolf's lair.
They were absolutely fucking stupid.

Stupid is so much worse because it's unpredictable
I completely agree. It's like the main thing that bothers me about it, and the fact that people actually believe and fall for this obvious bullshit.
U.S.S. Fat Useless Idiot
USS Bone Spur
Ah the USS Trump is in the Epstein Files
Can these idiots just not say “no” to him? I’m pretty tired of seeing news articles that are the kind of thing that Trump jerks off to.
He fires them if they do. I figure if someone in their family relies on them for healthcare, they have to play ball.
They all want in on the grift. Not only are they getting fame (or infamy) and power they haven’t earned but many of them are exploiting the same corruption. Look at how wealthy the turnip kids are now, based on misuse of government authority
How the military puts up with this draft dodger astounds me. I get he’s their “boss” but my god how embarrassing.
So, uh, you keep saying you support our veterans, but when are you actually going to start?
honestly fuck vets and Trump. I’m tired of pretending American vets should be celebrated. Veterans not Veterinarians
It's seems like a weird fetish Americans have. Most places wouldn't be any more likely to say "Thank you for your service" to a pizza delivery person then former armed service personnel. It's like, you had a job, you chose to do it, and now you're doing something else. What's the big deal?
Its probably so vets don't feel bad about all the unjust oil based wars and government toppling they do as part of their service.
At least it would be named after a colored person.
Orange is the new Black
🤌
Erase little Donnie from history beyond as a cautionary tale, he deserves no better
Maybe just take his name off the buildings and boats. It may feel good, but I can feel the Moses memes coming from here.
Let the name be stricken from every book and tablet. Stricken from every pylon and obelisk. Let the name be unheard and unspoken, erased from the memory of man, for all time. AI slop image of Trump parting the sea while an angel bangs an eagle overhead
No thank you
When this is over, they need to pass a law that NOTHING can be named after Trump, with one exception: Sewage Treatment Facilities. They will become known as Trumps, and people will say things like "Wow, the Trump really stinks worse than usual today "
But those have a positive impact on society.
They’re gonna have reinstate the draft to maintain the military
Looks like fragging is back on the menu boys!!
Once they're out of power, we can continue naming stuff after them, like latrines, landfills, etc
Literally zero mention of racism in this article.
Capitalist media is incapable of calling out explicit racism.
Fash enablers.
Kamala definitely would've done this, too... /s
USS Shitzenpantz
I hope that carrier shits itself then
Its like a curse. The moment trumps name gets painted on there, the whole ship starts falling apart.
One gets more obsessed with their legacy the closer they get to their death.
I thought they aren’t named off of persons that are alive? I wonder who’s gonna win out here… T*, a racist shitbag who skated service thanks to daddy, or a black navy man.
There is precedent for naming ships after living US presidents, but in both cases, the person had been out of office for years and had served in the Navy aboard the type of ship that bears their name.
If the army ever commissions a golf cart, maybe that would be appropriate.
Or an airline catering cart
