"If it weren’t for the tremendous numbers being produced by Tariffs from other Countries, many of which, in the past, have “ripped off” the United States at levels never seen before, I would stay at the $1 Trillion Dollar number but, because of Tariffs, and the tremendous Income that they bring, amounts being generated, that would have been unthinkable in the past (especially just one year ago during the Sleepy Joe Biden Administration, the Worst President in the History of our Country!), we are able to easily hit the $1.5 Trillion Dollar number while, at the same time, producing an unparalleled Military Force, and having the ability to, at the same time, pay down Debt, and likewise, pay a substantial Dividend to moderate income Patriots within our Country!"

Increase military spending by $500 Billion, while trying to halve the $50 Billion budget we have for medical research on things like cancer, which kills more Americans in a year than almost all American wars combined.
Make it make sense.

I did not vote for that.
If anything I would cut it from $1T to $750B over four years.

I’m sorry but $1,000,000,000,000 should get this done. Even that is a stupid number .

frick all that. They could just get rid of the $500 billion in waste and fraud and then have the same amount of buying power. In fact the $500 billion increase will also include about 30 percent in waste and fraud.

Come on, Don. Tariffs aren’t covering that and you know it. There’s no need to do this.

It's funny because people tried to spin it like Globalists don't love that Trump got rid of Maduro and the banks and oil industry can make billions from Venezuela
The Military Industrial complex loves the new Monroe Doctrine
Russia and China are the anti Globalists. They have been sanctioned for their Ukarine and Taiwan affairs.

I told y'all he was bought and paid for by the MIC and Oil execs and I got a bunch of shite for it on here.
Now look, we went into Venezuela to take their oil and we're trying to increase the military budget by just a small $500 billion.
This dude is a fraud and has manipulated and clowned every single one of you phags that voted for him.
Hey, at least DOGE saved us like $3.50 though.

Yea you’re speaking nonsense and you sound like you’re not in control of your emotions.
Trump has always been a big supporter of increased military spending. It’s one of the issues I disagree with him on.
He’s always been upfront about increased military spending.

Disagree. Get rid of the fraud and waste and we’ll have plenty of money.
See board Marxists. This is what it’s like to not agree with everything

clown show. Hopefully he will get a ton of push back on this.

Maybe trump is trying to tell you guys, that we cant just ignore the "axis of evil". Even though it is a convenient narrative on this board that we can just sit inside our borders in our hemisphere and ignore everything else like it's the 1800s and it wont effect our life. His turn in the last week is a sign.

This is beyond stupid
More typical government overspending. Both parties are out of control

How about putting forth a balanced budget amendment and forget the $500 billion increase to the military and instead put it towards the $38 trillion debt spiral.
