(5,813 posts)15. Even if tRump had nothing to do with covering the name,
It shows how far the staff will go to try to prevent unpleasantness for their boss. They know him very well and try to anticipate things that will annoy him or piss him off.

So quietly, behind the scenes, they arrange to get the name covered up and the crew of the carrier kept out of his sight. If that doesnt smack of Captain Queeg, I dont know what does.
