Then you contribute to it. Trump has tremendous problems to address and you seem to think he can do it all. He has priorities.

My first contribution is to make others aware of the problem, the possible loss of a maritime marvel which remains the fastest ship in the world which was financed 70% by the U.S. government as troop transport ship. The ship is a national treasure. It's loss would mean a loss of U.S. prestige and would symbolize the decline of the U.S.in the world stage. Trump understands that image. He also has a record of building tangilble things. Any president in his second term thinks about how history will remember him. Restoring this ship, whether by public or private money, or some combination thereof, would be a notable accomplishment. Trump likes to think big, and the ship is big.
