President Donald Trump has announced the creation of a new Golden Fleet designed to jump start the Navy.

During a press conference on Monday from Mar-a-Lago, Trump revealed that the Navy will begin constructing two new battleships with 100 times the power of existing war ships. The “all steel” vessels will be equipped with guns, missiles, hypersonic weapons and high-powered lasers.

Didn't WWII demonstrate that air power rendered battleships obsolete? We rolled out a refurbished USS Missouri in the 80s/90s anyway, but it was mothballed again after Desert Storm.

Yes, but how will Trump funnel money to his friends in the defense industry if we don't build massive new ships?

We do have to keep ship construction alive in the US. My opinion: FFGs & DDGs.
