I mean he's not wrong, -- it'll just be hilarious to see his supporters bend over backwards to justify this new pivot (flip flop).

Don't give him too much credit. His way of addressing our bloated military budget will be by advocating for cutting spending for trans soldiers or by segregating the military again. You know, something stupid and horrible.

Or quartering soldiers in houses. Or as you said, something equally horrible.

Anyone who thinks this is a good idea needs to take it in context. Cutting military spending? Yes, absolutely something we should do. Trust Trump, his cadre of treacherous, incompetent, and moronic lickspittles along with the modern American Nazis in his cult to cut military spending? Not in a thousand years.

Taking your child to the emergency room because they're hurt? Good idea.
Trusting a known child sex offender to take your child to the emergency room? Terrible idea.

Well said. I wouldn't trust Roy Moore with my children.

Didn't he try the last 2 years to increase the military budget, like, drastically?



    I am certain that, at some time in the future, President Xi and I, together with President Putin of Russia, will start talking about a meaningful halt to what has become a major and uncontrollable Arms Race. The U.S. spent 716 Billion Dollars this year. Crazy!

Literal insanity.  Changing his mind every single week depending on who talked to him last.

And these people he "talked to last," are not his advisors or other high-ranking US gov officials, but adversaries like Putin and Xi. What does that tell you about the Orange Buffoon?

Is this the moment where Democrats are going to be mad at a Republican president cutting the military budget?
