Maybe the traitors in the intel. community will pull a fast one and replace the champagne with a bottle of Russian dressing. Then they could leak it to the press and get Mueller to investigate. Mum's the word.

This President is a work horse. I wish he would play more golf and relax a little more but he won't. He is out again today on the weekend MAGA. The aircraft carrier was totally made in America maybe President Trump will mention that in his speech today. What a great way to end the week of Made in America.

Aircraft carriers are "sitting ducks." In a hot war, they'll be sunk pretty quickly. Their purpose is to project US power around the world and to provide work to US shipyard workers and the workers who supply components for the ship and the aircraft it carries.

I can see that point.
President Trump has criticized the carrier as being to expensive and ineffective in todays war environment. What could he do thought, Obama approved and had it built and he was never worried about wasting tax payer money or improving the military.

There should be no bottles broken today. That happens at launching/christening.

Commissioning is the official ceremony that actually places the new warship into active duty.

The U.S.S. Gerald R Ford is the first (lead) ship in a new class (generation) of nuclear powered aircraft carrier. The first all new design placed in service since 1976. She is expected to sail with the fleet for at least fifty years. Her last commanding officer has not been born yet.

Say what you will about the current Commander in Chief, the fact remains that, like many other exceptional accomplishments made by the United States of America, this latest warship added to our fleet is another example of what the greatest country in recorded history on Earth can accomplish.

Probably why many on the left would rather denigrate this occasion, than celebrate it.

Only blind loyalists think Trump is working hard LOL

dude watched a ton of cable news, plays golf once a week, and tweets daily.

I'd say Trump should spend more time trying to get legislation passed but he keeps failing at that LOL

How do YOU know that when he IS in a golf cart, he isn't working?

A LOT of business IS done while golfing.

Maybe you are NOT involved in working so you wouldn't know this!

Not sure if you heard, but he's taking most of August off for a golf vacation.

All that angry tweeting, golf, and TV watching has been tough on the orange blob and he needs another month of golf time to recuperate.
