DUI hire happened.

How many planes fell off of carriers before Trump came into office?


This is what Grok answered:

Below is a summary of documented incidents where aircraft fell off or were lost overboard from US Navy ships, including dates and key details:

October 26, 1966 – USS Oriskany: Fire on carrier led to aircraft damage; possible overboard losses during chaos. 44 deaths, 156 injuries.

July 29, 1967 – USS Forrestal: Fire caused by rocket ignition damaged/destroyed 21 aircraft; some possibly lost overboard. 134 deaths, 161 injuries.

January 24, 2022 – USS Carl Vinson: F-35C crashed on landing and fell into South China Sea. 1 aircraft lost, 7 injuries, ~$100 million.




A crash landing is a little different than an unsecured plan falling off the ship, which is what happened the first time. What happened yesterday is somewhere in between a crash and an unsecured plane falling off a carrier.

Well the answer is yes but I think the answer depends. I don't doubt the administration is doing it this way as part of its own the libs culture war. However, denying enlistment to people with medical conditions happens all the time. It probably matters not at all if someone needs medical support for their transition, and is an admin clerk in the Air NG. It matters quite a bit to have someone needing ongoing medical care if you're in the infantry.

Is the US military really in the position to deny anyone who wants to join a branch and is qualified to join & serve? I'm talking about the upholding of the ban on transgender service members.

My oldest is 23 and youngest is 18 and graduating this year. Zero graduates from my oldest's class joined the military. Two did from my middle son's graduating class, and so far 1 has been accepted to the Naval Academy from my 18 yo's class that graduates in a few week. I don't know of others joining the military until the school newspaper comes out that publishes the post-grad intentions of each student.

So out of around 760 students (class of '20, class of '22, and class of '25), only 3 went into service. That's 0.0039%.

You can meme all you want to on the internet, but it's dumb and you're dumb.


Defending this administration is dumb. The ship would not be having to take evasive action if Trump hadn't started lobbing missiles unprovoked.


You can be an idiot and this administration can be bad at the same time. Donald Trump is not the cause of every single problem on earth.


True.

But he did promise to have a lot of issues solved on day one and many issues that have arisen since he took office are unaddressed and still others are caused by his actiuons. Face it, life was a lot better 5 months ago.

Looks like the DUI hire is not setting a good example.

Huh? He said " I run the country and the world.". He is running the place and the buck stops with him.

well as long as straight white men were involved, its ok. If any women or minorities were involved, we should place all the blame on them before letting them go.

Are we sure these jets aren't being sold under the table by elements in the American government?
