DNC ‘S GIANT BLUNDER!!! NOT MADE IN AMERICA, THAT’S FOR SURE!

On the last night of the Democratic National Convention, a retired Navy four-star took the stage to pay tribute to veterans.   Behind him, on a giant screen, the image of four hulking warships reinforced his patriotic message.

But there was a big mistake in the stirring backdrop: those are Russian warships.

 

While retired Adm. John Nathman, a former commander of Fleet Forces Command,

honored vets as America’s best, the ships from the Russian Federation Navy were arrayed like sentinels on the big screen above. These were the very Soviet-era combatants that

Nathman and Cold Warriors like him had once squared off against.

“The ships are definitely Russian,” said noted naval author Norman Polmar after reviewing

hi-resolution photos from the event. “There’s no question of that in my mind.”

 

Naval experts concluded the background was a photo composite of Russian ships that were

overflown by what appear to be U.S. trainer jets. It remains unclear how or why the

Democratic Party used what’s believed to be images of the Russian Black Sea Fleet at their convention.

A spokesman for the Democratic National Convention Committee was not able to immediately comment Tuesday, saying he had to track down personnel to find out what had happened.

 

Duh!  You can't fix stupid, but you can fire stupid!
