It sounded bad to me. Digital. They have digital. What is digital? And its very complicated, you have to be Albert Einstein to figure it out. And I saidand now they want to buy more aircraft carriers. I said what system are you going to be"Sir, were staying with digital." I said no youre not. You going to goddamned steam, the digital costs hundreds of millions of dollars more money and its no good.

(9,730 posts)But it's quoted directly from an interview Drumpf had with "Time" magazine. There's also this:
"So I said to myself, Im a believer in professionals, these people over there, whether its in Iraq or in Yemen or anywhere, Libya, they went to West Point, or wherever. Annapolis, they went to Air Force Academy. I said to the general, I said how good.
The lieutenants, the captains, their majors, their colonels, theyre professionals. They love doing it, they know every inch of the territory, right. I say why am I telling them? So I authorized the generals to do the fighting. You know."
The insane delirious ravings of a dangerous maniac who happens to be the President of the United States.
"Oy Vey," indeed.

It doesn't sound like Rump even begins to differentiate between steam as power and digital as control. No advance there, though "digital" is probably meant to refer to some vague conception of "the other thing."
