A wife of a service member aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln tore into President Donald Trump’s administration on CNN Friday for its “infuriating” denial of what she described as extremely poor conditions aboard the ship.
The post Wife of Service Member Rips Trump Administration’s ‘Infuriating’ Denial About Conditions Aboard USS Abraham Lincoln first appeared on Mediaite.
Full quote from the wife of the sailor who became so desperate he recently tried to commit suicide while on the ship:
I don’t think the man thinks before he talks, and I was really hoping that at some point, there would be a redemption. Try to redeem yourself, at least a little bit, with everything that you do and everything that you say. Try to redeem yourself. Have some sympathy, some empathy, take some accountability for what’s going on with your military, your ships, and your war. And your war.
Um, it’s infuriating. I mean, we heard what Hegseth said yesterday, what the president is saying today. It’s infuriating, saying, essentially, that families are lying and service members are lying, even though the proof is right here on my phone. It is not fabricated. Nobody is lying. Everybody is — it’s infuriating that they’re not taking accountability, and not having any sort of sympathy for our service members that they claim to scream and shout that they support, when it’s politically, you know, sound for them to use “support our troops, support our troops,” until our troops need support, and now suddenly everyone’s lying, and it’s a fabrication and a misrepresentation? It’s infuriating.
Sounds exactly like the Trump administration I know, going back to at least the pandemic. Why would you be seeking sympathy from this administration? They don’t know the meaning of the word.
