Besides all the bowel-loosening revelations that we’ve received in recent days, there’s also the ones that just make you automatically facepalm upon reading the headline:
‘It’s stupid’: Trump kept demanding US Navy redesign aircraft carrier https://t.co/wt1EktPeYY

But the true cherry on top?
One of the biggest complaints Trump had, according to the report, is with the “island,” the portion of the ship that houses the command center.
“The island ‘looks really bad — it’s stupid,’ Trump said, according to Esper, who added that the former president proposed moving the structure closer to the middle of the ship, which would have been a costly and largely pointless endeavor,” said the report. “Esper says he tried to explain the functional reasons for the island’s positioning, but Trump wouldn’t have it, stressing that ‘it just doesn’t look right’ and noting that he has ‘an eye for aesthetics.’”
You lived in an apartment in NYC so gaudy that it would make a French whorehouse look understated. You insist upon covering everything around you in gold leaf that you can’t simply have gold-plated. Your “eye for aesthetics” is like that of an inbred yokel who just won the lottery. There’s a reason that your name became synonymous with “overpriced trash.”
