The Biden Cargo Cult, build it and they will come.
Biden is talking too much to his Uncle Miltie who was eaten by cannibals of the South PAcific Cargo Cults of Post WWII.

The whole world is laughing at Biden and Blinken.They will be laughed out of office on November 5th. Dumber than dirt.
The decision to install a pier which cannot sustain waves of over 3 feet in the unprotected Mediterranean should be investigated. Announcing it's closing yesterday, then reopening today but closing weeks early because it's unsuitable should be both and embarrassment and competency warning to our military. Unless ordered by the CIC despite warnings from the military.
