Just waiting for Trump to blame the Democrats

One less ship to spread death.

At least nobody so it seems

It was meant for patients of the virus,... But since it's only everyone they want to die anyway,... They said,... 'Fukkit,...! That just means all systems go,.. Situation normal,... Nothing to see here,...'. -yup AdamCurtis

Trump's brain: I rebuilt our military,...! Obama: Art of war, bitches,...! I used robots and gamers. Uuuuuuuuuh,... Winning,...!

Alhamdulillah Alhamdulillah may you kafirs suffer more Ameen 😊🇦🇫🏳️🤣

In the end USA will blame a cyber attack on Iran just like Israel ...

Can you guys burn the rest of the metal cans of the united states murder squads too.... Best thing to happen this year by miles

Choices have consequences. Dear with your pandemic situation and disasters.

I was stationed in this ship, but she has not yet begun to fight!

China China fire....

Iran to be blamed

I just told my friend yesterday that I left the Navy because I didnt want to burn up or blow up being an ex engineer working the ships engine rooms. Navy ships are dangerous. Prayers to the Sailors🙏🏽 and all involved.

Yea it’s trumps fault. Fake news media

Hopefully those little fish in the underneath water is fine

Must be CHINA!!!

how many are killed?

only in trumps America

They should probably start by throwing all the crap on the forward deck into the drink to make room for a deluge pump. It's kindof odd watching it burn like that when they have the entire Pacific ocean right there. Captain and XO on shore leave?

I guess Trump and Pompeo will blame Russia China or Iran for this🤣🤣🤣

Wtf were corona cabon fever sailors doin? Very hard to burn up a ship y'all.

Padres of black & white of NZ. Ghost art work.

let’s praying for soldiers

Please tell me people will be fired or held responsible for this fire for the love of God sink the ship put out the fire and quit doing irreplaceable damage to the lungs of San diegans!!!

China’s dream ...

Where has this story been? Never heard of it.

Que the Qtard conspiracy theory in 3,2,1.....

How could this happen to a United States ship

It’s the Chinese fire.

So, build another one . It’s a goner .

This is a military ship and they don't know how to put out fire on it? Really? What will they do in a war time? Just abandon it?

Pretty sad when Americans joke about this. Sure wish all these snowflakes had the balls to do something good for the country instead of bashing it all the time.

WE PRAY FOR THE SAILORS

I suspect Iran to be behind it🙄😣😑😐😒😓

Blame China ?

Terrible!!!!

I propose we rename it the S S Trump

Thanks Trump, I wish many bitter incidents would happen to you murderers

lookner breaking ? its been going for 3 hrs ...and you just picked it up , you are slower than the printed version of the Washington post

That explains why the military costs so much --- one small fire and they write off the whole ship.

Under the control of the current commander in chief, everything is sinking. Literally, or metaphorically

It's Trump's fault

PORTLAND BLM ACTIVIST USES BABY AS HUMAN SHIELD DURING VIOLENT PROTEST Race group using Hamas terror tactics against police

why aren't they putting it out, some info want destroyed?

That darn Obama...

FatAmericanJr

May God help them and keep them safe.

Damn, I hope that everyone else can make it out ok.

SO how much millions of dollars is this going to cost the taxpayers?

What happened to the fire watch and where was the damage control?

just waiting for this to be trumps fault. then waiting for this to be coronas fault.

Heart hugs to all involved. This is devastating 💔

Wow, that burning ship kinda reminds me of our country right now. Weird.
