Maryland Governor Wes Moore has expressed anger over President Trump's response to reported conditions on the USS Abraham Lincoln. He stated that the conditions and the president's response are "heartbreaking" and "piss me off".
The USS Abraham Lincoln has been at sea for over 200 days without a port call, a modern-day record. The ship was deployed from San Diego in November and later redirected to the Middle East to support US military operations in the war with Iran.
According to US Central Command leader Admiral Brad Cooper, his recent visit to the ship was "awe-inspiring" and he praised the crew's resilience. Cooper stated that the Lincoln had the lowest number of mental health cases of the Navy's 11 active aircraft carriers. In contrast, President Trump dismissed concerns about the length of time the ship's crew had been at sea.
