Trump recently announced we are doubling the size of southern command and dramatically increasing our activity off the coast of Venezuela, where this occurred. Could the cruise ship have been doing something sneaky?

Would they need a cruise ship to do a thing?
Why did we ship military supplies aboard the Lusitania?

Highly unlikely. It looks way better for Trump to have a big grey US Navy ship with large guns off the coast of Venezuela. Why hide on an old cruise ship?
Trump announced it to distract from covid-19. Saber rattling in both South America and Iran.
