    It’s not an accident that in an era where every single part of the US budget is being gutted (or likely to be gutted before all of this is over with), the Pentagon received an enormous increase. The MIC runs the US. If the CEO of Lockheed Martin makes a call to Trump, you had better believe Trump listens closely.

      The pentagon has been growing like an out of control cancer since at least 9/11, this doesn’t prove that.

      I am sorry, do you still at this late date think Trump listens? Even if he wanted to, he wouldn’t know how he hasn’t done it in decades.

        My guy, the fact that you can’t have a friendly discussion without immediately down voting every response indicates that someguy3 is probably right
