        There's more to it then what we're being told. Two ships that size don't hit into eachother like that without some major fowl play.

        @th3j35t3r do you think someone took over steering? Is it possible someone close to Trump gives them the info? Coincidence USS John MCCain?

        Exactly! Like I said, none of the four warships in these accidents, were "Accidents"! Four warships from the same naval base?
