Trump wants a much bigger Navy

President-elect Donald Trump has vowed to maintain a naval fleet of 350 ships as part of an historic buildup of the U.S. military, but his ambitions come with a stiff price tag.

“Our Navy is the smallest it's been since World War I,” he said during a campaign stop last October in the Philadelphia Navy Yard. “My plan will build the 350 ship Navy we need. This will be the largest effort at rebuilding our military since Ronald Reagan, and it will require a truly national effort.”

The Navy on average has spent $15.9 billion annually on ship building over the past three decades, according to a new report by the Congressional Budget Office (CBO). In order to meet the Republican president-elect’s goal, the navy shipbuilding account would have to be boosted to $25 billion a year, 60 percent higher than the historical average.

That will mean having to find a way to lift the budget cap on defense spending by about $9 billion a year.
Trump is far from alone in his ambitions for expanding the U.S. fleet to counter Russia, China, Iran and other global adversaries. Last month, the Navy released a new force structure assessment – a blueprint for the future -- which calls for building a fleet of 355 ships. That is in sharp contrast to a previous long-term goal of 308 ships.

Trump wants a much bigger Navy: Here's how much it'll cost

I'll agree to this only if one or two of them can be planetary space ships to expand humanity's sphere of power throughout our solar system. Otherwise, forget it.

too bad you have no say in it.

Neither Trump nor any of his sons served in the military.

and at the same time, they were not caught in the back of a limo blowing a fag either.
So, whats your point?

Seriously, what kind of ships would Trump add to the Navy. We have enough submarines to launch enough ballistic missiles to destroy every major city and military installation in Russia and China combined several times over. We have enough aircraft carriers with task forces to defeat and annihalate most countries in the world. The last big criticism seen here at USMB was about the Navy version of the Coast Guard Cutter not being an ocean-going battle wagon. Guaranteed, if Trump were asked what kind of ships he would add to the current Navy his answer would be a stupid and uninformed one.

It is not his job to know what ships to add silly boy. Do you think Big Ears knows anything about ships...or for that matter, which end of the gun the round comes out?

However, what Trump should do is bring all our military and government personnel HOME...and guard the homeland instead of instigating terrible all over the world. If he did, he likely would be murdered by the Deep State...though.

If Trump's plan is to bring all the ships home, why does he need a larger Navy? And remember, Trump claims to know more than the Generals. We can assume he knows more than the Admirals too. In any case, his promise to bring the best people into his administration is turning into a farce. The best people want nothing to do with his idiocy. He is all talk. Bullshit talk.

...and under sniperfire in all 57 states

So who among you are willing to have your taxes raised to pay for this military buildup?

I guess the answer is no one.

Then how do you plan to pay for it?

The ocean will pay, sometime in the future, just like Mexico and the wall.

The Republican credit card will pay for it, as has been the case since Reagan.

I was responding directly to your post about bringing the government personnel HOME to guard the homeland.

Trump wants a much bigger Navy

President-elect Donald Trump has vowed to maintain a naval fleet of 350 ships as part of an historic buildup of the U.S. military, but his ambitions come with a stiff price tag.

“Our Navy is the smallest it's been since World War I,” he said during a campaign stop last October in the Philadelphia Navy Yard. “My plan will build the 350 ship Navy we need. This will be the largest effort at rebuilding our military since Ronald Reagan, and it will require a truly national effort.”

The Navy on average has spent $15.9 billion annually on ship building over the past three decades, according to a new report by the Congressional Budget Office (CBO). In order to meet the Republican president-elect’s goal, the navy shipbuilding account would have to be boosted to $25 billion a year, 60 percent higher than the historical average.

That will mean having to find a way to lift the budget cap on defense spending by about $9 billion a year.
Trump is far from alone in his ambitions for expanding the U.S. fleet to counter Russia, China, Iran and other global adversaries. Last month, the Navy released a new force structure assessment – a blueprint for the future -- which calls for building a fleet of 355 ships. That is in sharp contrast to a previous long-term goal of 308 ships.

Trump wants a much bigger Navy: Here's how much it'll cost

I'll agree to this only if one or two of them can be planetary space ships to expand humanity's sphere of power throughout our solar system. Otherwise, forget it.

Shows what a moron Trump is

The number of ships compared to WWII is irrelevant to the Navy's effectiveness

The key is the mission and threat to be faced. We don't need as many ships to do the same mission. Our missiles, torpedoes and aircraft are much more accurate and lethal than they were 50 years ago

There is also no Navy out there that can compete with ours

We would do better forgetting you. The navy is weaker than it has been since before WW2.

Prior to WWII we had the fifth strongest Navy in the world. Today, we are stronger than all the Navy's in the world combined

How can we be weaker?

If Trump is a moron, than logically Obama is a really really really BIG MORON.

Do you understand logic?

You are full of crap. The military is weaker than it has been in decades, thanks to the obastard admin, and gutless stains like you who spew lie after lie.

Actually, I don't see your comparison

Today, we have the most powerful military force in the history of mankind

Make our kids, grandkids and so on be responsible for it... that's what the 100+ years of socialism has done. Why stop now?

Im not willing to pay more for your illegal pets either, or the bullshit ACA, or the welfare or food stamps. So, how do you plan to pay for that?
Oh thats right, you just figure you can take it by force because there is nothing I can do about it.
Enjoy paying your share of the new ships because you live here so it has no bearing on what you want to pay, you just open your wallet and give what you are told to give. Its the cost of living in a once free society.

Are you willing to have your taxes raised to pay for all of Trump's military spending plans or not?

$25 billion or about half the public school budget, maybe we should privatize the military?

Better idea to privatize public school ....

same principle

Keep our public schools but reform them! Bring back severe punishments for assholes that work to destroy the learning environment.

Every American deserves 12 years of education.

slave masters dont want their slaves too learn how to read

The democrats don't directly own blacks anymore......now they just use them for votes every two years...but yes, they don't want to educate them which is why inner city public schools are so horrible.....
