I think it's a bit of a stretch to blame incidents like these on 
whichever administration is in office. The recent incidents on the USS 
Truman for example may have been incompetence or some other failure of 
equipment that wasn't _reasonably_ foreseeable or preventable. Without 
access to the Root Cause Failure Analysis we can only speculate. As much 
as I consider the existence of trump in the US white house to be an 
existential threat to the US, he had nothing to do with what happened on 
the USS Truman.
