The instruction was given by a senior officer just before the vice president’s visit to the USS Harry S Truman on April 30. It was reported by WTKR-TV’s Brendon Ponton on Twitter.
“The statement was inappropriate, and this issue is being addressed by Truman's leadership," she said. This news comes after weeks of debate over the administration's own plan for the ship’s retirement by the Department of Defense and top Navy officials. The plan to decommission the ship in order to to free up funds for more modern technology was part of the Trump's 2020 budget proposal.
However, lawmakers on both sides of the aisle have been sceptical of the administration's plan. Both Democratic senators from Virginia, Tim Kaine and Mark Warner, were particularly vocal in their opposition l to the decommission, which would have affected their constituents. Senator Kaine called the proposal"a head-scratcher."
I like how OP walked right out of this.
