Why Donald Trump Hates USS Gerald R Ford? #shorts

In July of 2021 during an interview, former president Donald Trump grumbled regarding the Ford. He said, "We’re building an aircraft carrier, It’s the stupidest thing I’ve ever seen." While criticizing the aircraft carrier's new island location, he said, “Now you’re putting the tower in the back, so it makes it very much narrow," “Instead of putting it in the middle, like you’ve had, for as long as we’ve had aircraft carriers.” He didn't stop there, and criticized the new electromagnetically powered weapons elevators and catapults. He said, “They want to use magnets to lift up the elevators," “I said magnets will not work, give me a cup of water, throw it on the magnets, you totally short out the system! Trump accused carrier's designers of having “no common sense." “The catapults don’t work, and the elevators don’t work, other than that, it’s a lovely ship," Trunp said. But the reality is different. “Over 17,000 individual elevator cycles have been performed by the crew in port and at sea." In April 2021, Ford successfully performed 8,000 aircraft launches and recoveries, during sea trials. While EMALS removes “the need for large-volume steam piping."
