This is kind of a nothing article. Like, obviously battleships built in the 40s would be pretty worthless in a peer/near-peer war even if they were in perfect working order. Even at the end of WW2 the utility of battleships was limited, and now missiles out-range their guns by 2 orders of magnitude.

Even the US knows it though, they're all retired museum ships now. They were kept around as long as they were because some politicians had the same fixation on needing them for shore bombardment as they have for keeping low-speed flying bathtubs around for close air support.

Bush's time out of office when that aired is pretty much the same as if they did that premise now about Obungler, and Ford showing up at the end is equivalent to Bush Jr if he'd been a single-termer

I'm weary of applying respectability standards anywhere, especially with something like funeral practices, but it does take real effort not to cringe at this

Biden packs the court but it's for this bullshit
