What if.....just what if.......the two by sea (Mercy&Comfort) were put there for both of the above reasons? 1. For Trump to demonstrate to Americans we got this.  2. To send a cryptic message to the DS, both parties knowing full well what's coming up on 19th.  He KNEW they wouldn't be needed for hospital beds but had to reassure the public in light of the media frenzy.  He KNEW the significance of 19th and the meaning of 'two by sea' He couldn't have brought them in yesterday since it's already apparent that there's plenty of beds available.  Sure makes a lotta sense to me.  The big question is.....will they be used for something else?
