Sounds like he’s talking about a specific implementation of electro-mangets, and giving his concerns that electronic systems applied to elevators in the Navy, could be vulnerable to water damage as compared to mechanically engineered system.
…so this obviously means he’s fit and sane to implement The Heritage Foundation’s Project 2025, a plan to “be a dictator only on day one” by firing any democratic party supporting liberals across all departments of the public services, and installing Republican party friendly employees in those positions instead. This would represent a level of political persecution never seen before in the history of American democracy, and possibly the end of American democracy.
It’s what Clarence Thomas calls the dismantling of the “Administrative State” and has been a life long goal of his. Ergo it’s likely the Supreme Court would allow this behaviour as part of “Unitary Executive Theory”.
I say all this because it’s easy to make Trump and MAGA look stupid. They, like many fascist movements appeal to a very simplistic base of people - but at the upper eschelons they do have a plan, and do have major peices in place.
