Senator Kaine accused President Trump of using the military as a 'palace guard' following the historic extension of the USS Gerald R. Ford.
The USS Gerald R. Ford has surpassed post-Vietnam records by reaching 295 days at sea. Senator Tim Kaine criticized the extended deployment as a strain on service members, blaming President Trump's management of the military.
Left-leaning outlets like Salon.com and People's World frame the situation as a constitutional crisis, highlighting calls for impeachment and potential war crimes. In contrast, right-leaning sources such as The American Conservative and Fox News depict Trump as the target of a media-led "humiliation" campaign and dismiss removal efforts as "fringe." Meanwhile, EWTN News and AP News note a rare rift with his conservative base following his attacks on the Pope and use of messianic imagery.
