At Yokosuka Naval Base, President Donald Trump turned a carrier hangar into a rally, addressing about 6,000 U.S. service members and more than 200 from Japan under a “Peace Through Strength” banner. Over 53 minutes aboard the USS George Washington, he tied his trade agenda to avoiding wars, said Japan’s prime minister told him Toyota will invest $10 billion in U.S. plants, and said missiles for Japan’s F-35s arrive this week. He bantered with crews, backed steam catapults and vowed an order mandating them, and needled Joe Biden, alleging Biden said he was a pilot.
