And Houthis take another shot at the Truman.

I thought the Houthis “had enough”.

Dope? Bueller??

They’re not losing F/A-18s.

They’re converting them to submarines.

They have.

This jet was lost due to an "arrestment failure", meaning that something broke on landing. The aircrew had to eject but were picked up shortly after. Both crew suffered minor injuries. And are probably an inch shorter.

Um… they just shot another anti-ship missile at the Truman.

the Trumpman carrier is also ineffective against electric boats, sharks, and shin splints.

But that's not why this particular F-18 went overboard. A snapped tailhook or some other problem could happen for whatever reason.

If the Houthis are still shooting missiles at us, then more of them die. That's the math here.

Didn’t say it was.

Regardless, looks like the Houthis aren’t through yet.

And another White House statement fails to account for reality

No, that was their statement. If they want to go back on their word, then more of them can die.

See the pattern?

They will MAYBE catch the Orange Fugitive "in due time".

The White House said they were “through”.

Looks like someone got ahead of himself.

Because they asked for a cease-fire.

Yes, the Houthis.
