The U.S. Navy has acknowledged that a request was made to hide the USS John S. McCain during President Donald Trump's recent state visit to Japan.

"A request was made to the U.S. Navy to minimize the visibility of USS John S. McCain, however, all ships remained in their normal configuration during the President's visit," Rear Admiral Charlie Brown, chief of information, said in a statement to NBC News.

Can you believe this 💩: Trump said Wednesday night on Twitter: "I was not informed about anything having to do with the Navy Ship USS John S. McCain during my recent visit to Japan." Trump again denied any involvement on Thursday, but said whoever made the request was "well meaning."

Trump tweeted "but said whoever made the request was "well meaning," to who?

Well meaning to Trump but of course Trump couldn't care less about the McCain. It was just a matter of moving a ship, no big deal.

Dea. Ron Gray Sr. Monday, June 3rd 2019 at 11:37AM

That was childish for the Trump administration to even make such a request, he is the President of The United States of America and he should act like one. WOW!!!

The "Trump Administration" didn't make the request, a person did. Who was that person Ron?

Dea. Ron Gray Sr. Monday, June 3rd 2019 at 12:15PM

According to this news article states and I quote:

"Acting Defense Secretary Patrick Shanahan said Friday he’d asked his chief of staff to “look into” the reported request from the White House to move the ship "out of sight" during Trump's visit."

The reported request came from some one in The White House, now if that is "NOT" The "Trump Administration" then who's in the White House, Steve? The Russians... LOL!!!



Steve Williams Monday, June 3rd 2019 at 12:57PM

The request came from the White House Military Office, not the President. Shanahan has sent a memo to the White House requesting the military not be politicized in the future.

Hey Steve, NEWS FLASH!!!! Where in this blog did I tell you, the order came from the President?

This is what I said: "Acting Defense Secretary Patrick Shanahan said Friday he’d asked his chief of staff to “look into” the reported request from the White House to move the ship "out of sight" during Trump's visit."

The reported request came from some one in The White House, now if that is "NOT" The "Trump Administration" then who's in the White House, Steve? The Russians... LOL!!!

You never did answer that question, now did you?

Now, what you call A similar incident involving the White House Military Office. President Barack Obama did make the statement: :And it will not happen again." Did Trump as President said "It will never happen again, NO!!!!

Trump tweeted "but said whoever made the request was "well meaning.

Stop trying to duck what you see because the evidence is right in front of your nose. "

Ron, you put the blame on the President personally.

"That was childish for the Trump administration to even make such a request, he is the President of The United States of America and he should act like one. WOW!!"

Steve Williams Monday, June 3rd 2019 at 3:19PM

Obama made an apology and Trump didn't? Messing with a ship didn't alarm the public. No apology is needed.

Dea. Ron Gray Sr. Monday, June 3rd 2019 at 8:00PM

The reported request came from some one in The White House, now if that is "NOT" The "Trump Administration" then who's in the White House, Steve? The Russians... LOL!!!


Dea. Ron Gray Sr. Monday, June 3rd 2019 at 8:06PM

The reported request came from some one in The White House, now if that is "NOT" The "Trump Administration" then who's in the White House, Steve?

Steve Williams Monday, June 3rd 2019 at 8:14PM

Let's start at the beginning Ron, who made the request, a person or a thing?

Dea. Ron Gray Sr. Monday, June 3rd 2019 at 8:25PM

BUZZZZZZZ!!!! Oh! I am so sorry Steve, WRONG ANSWER!!!! If The reported request came from some one in The White House, to hide the USS McCain" during President Donald Trump's recent state visit to Japan, then it came from the Trump Administration!!!
