Sources within convicted felon President Trump’s regime tell CNN that the USS Doris Miller – an under-construction Ford-class aircraft carrier named for the Black Navy cook who with, zero training, commandeered an anti-aircraft gun and shot down at least one and as many as six Japanese planes during the attack on Pearl Harbor – is to be de-named for Miller and instead christened the USS Donald Trump. “It would be an unprecedented move to name an aircraft carrier after a sitting president,” CNN writes as though the racially-coded disrespect for a hero who later gave his life – Miller was killed along with 701 other sailors when a Japanese sub sank the USS Linscome during a battle off the Gilbert Islands in 1943 – isn’t actually the most fucked-up part.
The Defense Department had no official comment on the matter. So yeah they’re going to do it or they were and now they’re going to back down because of the heat that’s no doubt coming.
