Trump: Record-setting Navy deployment to support Iran operations ‘not nearly long enough’

President Donald Trump dismissed concerns regarding the record-setting deployment of the USS Abraham Lincoln in support of Iran operations. Despite reports of food shortages, plumbing failures, and severe fatigue, Trump stated that the deployment of over 260 days was not nearly long enough. While lawmakers and family members raised alarms about mental health and deteriorating conditions aboard the San Diego-based carrier, the president refuted claims that family members were concerned about the length of the mission.
