Donald Trump can snap at anything in a matter of moments. The former president was in a campaign rally in Mason City, Iowa when he started a rant against magnets, and asked for water as he discussed it. He talked about it and the people in attendance loved to hear him talk. Trump had words about the magnetic elevator systems and electric catapults designed for U.S. aircraft carriers. These were designed during his time in the White House.
Mediaite reports that Trump talked about it in detail. He went ahead and said, “I could tell you about aircraft carriers, where they use electric catapults. They couldn’t go to the steam, which works better for about 1/100th the price, you know? The electric catapult, you know that story? I could tell you about the elevators on a tremendous carrier, the Gerald Ford, and they decided not to use hydraulic like the John Deere tractor, they decided to use magnets, “we’re gonna use magnets!” to lift up the elevators with seven planes. We need them fast, these massive elevators. They used magnets, they wanted to try it for the first time. This was a ship that was supposed to cost 2.5 billion, it cost 19 billion and didn’t work, and still doesn’t work right.”

The former president didn’t stop there as he went on and said, “They had a $900 million cost over on these stupid electric catapults that didn’t work. They had almost a billion dollar cost over on the magnetic elevators. Think of it, magnets. Now all I know about magnets is this, give me a glass of water, let me drop it on the magnets, that’s the end of the magnets. Why didn’t they use John Deere? Why didn’t they bring in the John Deere people? Do you like John Deere? I like John Deere.”
It’s worth noting that Trump has financial fraud allegations against him due to the House of Democrats report that was presented on Thursday. No one can confirm if he will be able to contest for the biggest post in the country if anything out of it comes out to be true.
