> [@Locrian](#): > > How about them steam powered missiles? > [Link removed by @LSLGuy] In all seriousness, EMALS has been a shambles. Trump is hardly the first official to take notice. Nor does it have anything to do with missiles. Like so many other Trumply moves, he’s taking credit for something the bureaucracy was moving towards before he got there. And of course he got the details all fouled up because _Details Shmetails_ seems to be his M.O. ---

Prior to Trump losing his mind with the Reuter’s reporter: Question: “Just to be clear: If the electoral college votes for Joe Biden, will you concede?” Mason asked Trump at the start of their exchange. “Well, if they do, they’ve made a mistake, because this election was a fraud, just so you understand. This election was a fraud,” Trump responded, again repeating unfounded claims of widespread voter fraud. “They have Biden beating … Obama’s vote … and yet he’s losing to Obama all over the place … so, no, I can’t say that at all.” That’s some world-class mumbo-jumbo, right there. ---
