Yesterday, December 7. 1941, was a day that will live in...actually it was a perfect day. We lost a few ships because of a surprise attack that nobody could have seen coming. We had the largest, greatest navy in the history of the world and then they came to me and said some of its been sunk, and I said what? But it will all be back sooner than you think. Now the previous administration left the cupboard bare in Honolulu but despite that we still performed very well. And this morning I was on the phone with all the admirals in the Navy and everyone of them said, thank you for your help Mr President and how do you know so much about ships? I should have been an admiral.
Now there are Marines at Wake Island, and after what happened at Pearl Harbor the fake news says they’re surrounded and short of guns and ammunition. That’s fake news. I talked to the commander and they’ve got plenty. And anyhow that’s the Navy’s job to get them whatever they need. The federal government is not a shipping clerk. But I was thinking; if they’re out of regular ammunition can’t they make their own? The ancient Tahitians lived on those islands for years and they had guns didn’t they? You can make ammo out of bamboos and coconuts. I’m no artillery expert but I’ve heard it can be done.
Now this General MacArthur in Manila, he says he’s cut off too. I know him from way back he’s always been a liberal and a big spender. Always complaining to the media. I’d like to hear some appreciation for once.
Anyhow we may be at war this morning I don’t know. I get along well with Emperor Hirohito so we’ll have to see. If we are at war it won’t last long. I think by January or February things will be back to normal. Although that’s completely up to the military. It’s not my responsibility. Let’s talk again tomorrow.
