Trump has screwed us many more times than that.

Rudder with central and port wing propellers; for scale note the man at the bottom of the photo

Titanic was equipped with three main engines—two reciprocating four-cylinder, triple-expansion steam engines and one centrally placed low-pressure Parsons turbine—each driving a propeller. The two reciprocating engines had a combined output of 30,000 hp. The output of the steam turbine was 16,000 hp.

The reciprocating engines drove the outer two propellers. The turbine drove the center propeller.

Also, the fourth stack was not a smokestack. It was for ventilation.

Anyway, the real Titanic never sank. It was just a fake news liberal conspiracy of the deep state.
