The problem with the US Navy is Trump and the way he stereotypes this virus.
The CDC needs to put at least one expert at the table with the Joint Chiefs.
NOW!
PENCE DO YOU HEAR THIS!!!!!!!!!!!
The US Navy's peril in this is exactly reflective of the prejudices of the president. They represent the "type" of person that will get sick and it will be a bad case of the flu. Trump believes this is just going to be a difficult circumstance and some Americans will die, mostly the elderly.
If the US Navy needs to dock in Guam there is such thing as eminent domain and at least one representative from the CDC should be problem-solving this with the government and people of Guam.
There is no pretty please and every one of those soldiers is at risk for being ill, seriously ill and face deadly circumstances. There is more then sanitizing the ship. There needs to be a strong response to this very astute captain that knows his men and women aboard. If Guam is not a capable place to dock this aircraft carrier then the captain needs to pick a port.
The real problem here is that there is no real Secretary of the Navy that actually can make these decisions. There is only an Acting - Secretary of the Navy and Trump is controlling and inhibiting all the administration that is "acting."
Trump also has been buddying up with Putin to trade coronavirus secrets.
The Joint Chiefs has the power to carry out emergency measures without the president, SO DO IT!!!!!!
