As disgusting as it is all too predictably pathetic from this risible administration. I wonder low long Trump and Hegseth would last on a boat before they whined about the essentials - big Macs and beer...
Naval families with loved ones deployed for months on US warships amid the Iran war have reacted with fury to Donald Trump and the defense secretary Pete Hegsethโs dismissal of their concerns about the extreme pressures and dire conditions they are enduring.
The Guardian has talked to three naval families who have been following the physical and mental stresses bearing down on their relatives with mounting alarm. The families, with loved ones on board the USS Abraham Lincoln and USS Tripoli, all spoke anonymously for fear of retribution against their active duty relatives.
The USS Abraham Lincoln, an aircraft carrier with more than 5,000 sailors and marines onboard, has been at sea for nearly nine months, having begun its deployment in November. There have been reports of multiple suicide attempts including jumping overboard.
When Trump was asked on Friday whether naval families were worried about conditions on board, he replied: โNo, theyโre not.โ He said that the Lincolnโs deployment, now in its ninth month, was โnot nearly long enoughโ.
Earlier, Hegseth also swatted away familiesโ concerns, saying that the reality onboard the Lincoln had been โcompletely misrepresentedโ.

Probably about as long as Frodo and Sam on their journey to Mt. Doom.

I wouldn't even get on a boat if it didn't have any Big Macs or beer on board.

Well, I doubt there were such things as Big Macs in Tolkien's universe but don't kid yourself. Neither Trump or Hegseth would get on a ship like this in the first place and if it somehow did happen - they'd be using communications for a rescue instead of expecting people serving their country to endure the hardships faced by the actual sailors aboard.

So much for supporting the troops.. when Bonespurs Trump was asked whether the deployment had gone too long, his answer was:
"No. Not nearly long enough."
On an optimistic note, though...
