Bankrupt Trump wants to build warships named after him...what about a 100m gold Trump statue?

 With so much money collected from tariffs, according to Trump, the USA is now furiously going into building warships, named Trump-class warships he boasted about, no less, all to counter China. They will be state of the art warships with hypersonic missiles and laser weapons. Ya, just wonder how Trump's Space Force is doing. Trump wants to control the global seas as well as space. Big plans!

Did Trump forget something? China controls rare earth that those warships are going to need for construction, from basic 2.4 tons to 4 tons, on top of all the rare earth needed for those weapons on board. And China is not going to relent on its rare earth grip for sure, not to allow its enemy to build weapons that will be used to target China later on. That would be stupidity of the highest order.

Trump can continue to fool his base with his rhetoric, but not everyone around the world is convinced. USA shipbuilding is totally non-existent, just 0.1% of global total, and that was in 2023. That sector existed just to keep the USA's naval fleet functioning. Oh, sure the USA can just start building up its fantasy shipyards using Lego bricks for speed. How long is real building of shipyards going to take? How long it will take just to train skilled workers to go big into shipbuilding? Have they even started training and producing naval engineers in universities to cater to the expected demand? I think they just found out about China's shipbuilding dominance not long ago, so no head start yet obviously to address the manpower problem. Same old same old Trump standing on a dung heap, showboating and putting the cart before the horse. Why brag so much when the world knows it is all baloney, same as the rare earth alliances now being created.

I expect China to say nothing and keep mum about the issue, as always. Let the facts speak for itself in time to come. By the way, all the crowing about China's weapon development have been done by the MSM of the West and anti-China social media, just to keep hyping up the Chinese threat. China just built weapons that it needs, quietly, tested them discreetly, keep them away from prying eyes. They are only exposed in battle, like the India/Pakistan conflict recently. Chinese weapons will be tested again in Venezuela and Iran, as Israel is planning another attack.
