It would be kinda funny if we crawled back to the French, begged them to build us some subs, and then the French tell us to "Mange de la merde!"

The French wouldn't say that. They'd say whatever is French for "Sign here!"

We'd then pay them a few more BILLION dollars, and the French would wait a week or two for another policy reversal.

At the rate we're going, we'll end up buying our subs from China...

We'd probably better be able to rely on the Chinese ones during WW3 than the American ones.

To be honest, at least then the navy would know exactly what they are fighting against.
