No matter what Trump does, Democrats will be angry. He can’t win when it comes to their feelings towards him.
And Donald Trump gave a crucial update about the U.S. Navy that has Leftists seething.
President Trump is gearing up to unveil plans for constructing brand-new battleships—the first in over eight decades. This isn’t just any upgrade; it’s a massive step toward rebuilding America’s naval might.
These powerhouse vessels will build on the Navy’s Arleigh Burke-class guided missile destroyers, taking them to the next level, per the Wall Street Journal.
With the existing models already ringing in at over $2 billion each, you can bet this initiative will demand serious investment in America’s defense.
Details on exactly how many ships are coming, what cutting-edge features they’ll pack, or if Congress needs to green-light the funding are still under wraps. But one thing’s crystal clear: this is Trump putting America first on the high seas.
The Wall Street Journal spilled the beans, quoting a source that the fresh lineup will be dubbed the “Trump-class,” with the lead ship christened USS Defiant. Talk about leaving a legacy that’s impossible to ignore.
Right now, the Navy boasts 74 Arleigh Burke-class destroyers in active duty, rolling out since the tail end of the 1980s. These workhorses handle everything from shielding the skies to babysitting aircraft carriers and firing off those deadly Tomahawk cruise missiles.
The class honors Admiral Arleigh Burke, a true American hero from World War II who dodged two kamikaze strikes during the brutal Okinawa battle. He went on to lead naval ops under Presidents Eisenhower and Kennedy, setting the bar high for naval excellence.
Trump’s vision ties into the “Golden Fleet” branding, echoing that epic promise from his inauguration to kick off a new “Golden Age” for the USA.
He’s already stamped his style on other projects, like calling the new missile-defense system the “Golden Dome.”
And don’t forget the touches of gold he added to the Oval Office and Cabinet Room—pure Trump flair.
The big reveal is set to happen down in Palm Beach, Florida. He’ll be flanked by Pentagon boss Pete Hegseth and Navy Secretary John Phelan for the announcement.
This marks a historic shift, as the U.S. hasn’t launched a battleship-class ship since 1944.
Those old giants were named for states, a tradition that’s getting a modern twist now.
Imagine the message this sends: America reclaiming its dominance on the waves, with ships who’s class bears the name of the man who fought tooth and nail to make America strong again.
It’s a direct jab at the weak-kneed policies of the past.
Critics might whine about the cost or the naming, but real Americans know this is about security and pride. Trump’s not afraid to slap his name on something that screams power and resilience.
The USS Defiant leading the pack? That’s poetry in motion—a vessel ready to defy any threat, just like Trump defied the swamp to win back the White House.
With threats looming from China and elsewhere, beefing up America’s fleet isn’t optional; it’s essential. This “Trump-class” could be the game-changer that keeps U.S. shores safe for generations.
