At 5:24PM ET Sunday afternoon, the USS John S. McCain, a U.S. Navy guided-missile destroyer, collided with a Liberian merchant vessel off the coast of Singapore.

According to a statement by the U.S. Navy, ten sailors on board are still missing, and search and rescue efforts are underway. Five sailors were injured in the collision, four of whom were medically evacuated to a Singapore hospital.

While the ship suffered damage to its port side, it was able to sail back to port at Changi Naval Base in Singapore on its own.

When asked about the collision on Sunday, President Trump initially had an oddly muted response, saying only:

“That’s too bad.”

I was going to ask if it was normal to name a ship after someone while they're still alive but I didn't know that his dad and grandfather were both in the military too >_>'

Why are these incidents becoming more common? Are U.S Navy ships not equipped with the best navigation tech on earth??

He wasn't briefed on it and within an hour made an actual statement. I wouldn't read too much into it.

I was wondering the exact same thing. Or has this always been an issue?


As far as I can tell, its happening roughly at the same rate. Its just easier to come across in modern news.

The other vessel was a Liberian merchant so god only knows what the ship was outfitted with for safety.

I'd bet my left nut that his response was 100% because the ship's name is the "USS John McCain".

In all honesty, this is something really dumb to be mad about. The President has to deal with different crises every day. They can't possibly have huge emotional reactions each time. Most of it is just acting for the camera, something Obama was great at.

Mr. President, you know he wasn't actually on the ship, right?

People are missing and you say that's too bad. That is not a reply you give in that situation. That is what you say when they leave off your pickles from your burger not when Americans are missing. But it's your Lord Trump everything he does is right.
