On 1 May, President Trump announced he overrode the decision to decommission USS Harry S. Truman, stating “I am overriding the Decommission Order of the magnificent aircraft carrier Harry S. Truman, built in 1998 (fairly new), and considered one of the largest and finest in the world. It will be updated at a fraction of the cost of a new one (which also are being built)!”[64]

In late August it was announced that a malfunction of the ship’s electrical distribution system would prevent its scheduled deployment.

"President Trump announced he overrode the decision to decommission USS Harry S. Truman..."

I thought about that, but wasn't sure if it was written in stone.
Thanks for the heads-up. She's due, I think, for a mid-life RCOH anyway.
