Donald Trump became the laughing stock of the internet on Friday when he bragged about a new “super duper missile” that the U.S. military is developing to go 17 times faster than any existing rocket.
Trump said the following:
“We have, I call it the ‘Super Duper Missile.’ And I heard the other night, 17 times faster than what they have right now. If you take the fastest missile right now. You’ve heard Russia has 5 times, China is working on 5 or 6 times. We have one 17 times …17 times faster”

Don't Miss
People on Twitter were quick to troll him for speaking like a five-year-old kid.
Did Trump really say "Super Duper Missile?"

Development of the Super-Duper Missile is crucial to the success of Operation Warp Speed.

If in fact the Pentagon was developing a "super duper" missile THAT WOULD BE CLASSIFIED INFORMATION. BUT HEY TRUMP NEEDS SOMETHING FOR HIS CAMPAIGN RIGHT?

Currently fastest supersonic missile (known) is the BrahMos at 2,200mph. This would be about 34,000 mph, or 49x faster than the speed of sound.

How does russia have a missile 5x faster than the fastest missile? Isn't that now the fastest? I need to stop trying to find logic in his jibberish.
