He wants it as his personal slush fund to use it his command. Public service ads, more home/gardening projects, etc. He's disgusting.

🤬

Uh NO EFFING WAY

Why, so his sons can get more contracts or he can funnel that money to his billionaire buds?

Not with my money. I am going to Frankfurt in Interpol colors.

correction;”: trump wants to steal $1.5 trillion from US taxpayers and give it to his sons and his corrupt cronies.

Billionaires are created & sustained by the US taxpayers through the rich man's welfare program, the never successfully audited military contract process. Super computers are built by the military that can't do simple accounting.

Irresponsible spending in the defense department has been unsustainable for a long time now. There needs to be accountability and budget restructuring to bring defense spending under control and still deliver new capabilities and to mass produce tried and tested capabilities for our defense.

He doesn't want to spend $1.5 trillion on defense, he wants to steal $1.5 trillion from the American taxpayer and give it to his defense contractor and arms manufacturer buddies.

Money laundering* He wants to spend $1.5 trillion on money laundering.

🛑🛑🛑 🫥🪓 The level of distrust in 🖕trump is so strong that every American doubts... 🇺🇸🗽 🔥🔥🔥 Indeed, if Biden were there, there would be discussions about the feasibility of such a budget. 💲☠️ 🆘🆘🆘 With 🖕trump, there is certainty that money is being stolen.

our military sucks and hasn’t won a war in like 80 years. defund that shit, its a fuckin paper tiger/orphan crushing machine.

As our country rots. The biggest threat to the United States is the United States.

Corruption is a hell of drug. Lots of money to skim off there. 🤷🏻‍♂️

NO, dammit, NO. We should not be handing over our tax dollars to these criminal sociopaths. Kegsbreath fired the finest of our military and abused our kids out at sea in the strait. Trump insults our veterans and he’ll steal $3 for every $1 allocated to the defense budget. NO MORE

Since 2024 the U.S. has been spending more money servicing It’s debt, than on defense. According to Ferguson’s law, the U.S. is now a nation in decline. The irony of it all, is half the reason we have so much debt is because of our defense spending.

I recall the grave concern before kegsbreath was confirmed was that he’d be in charge of a military with an $800 billion annual budget.

What is being protected? Not our rights, freedom or quality of life.

Warmonger Dumbass

Not with a Dem / Indy Congress they wont. The current Congress is asleep at the wheel enjoying all their perks and luxuries of long vacations and "here no evil - see no evil- speak no evil" monkey routine. Nov 3 that changes- VOTE!!!

There is no spending so rife with corruption, pork, greed, and waste as military spending, yet it remains BY FAR the largest part of our discretionary budget. Ike warned us about the dangers of the military/industrial complex. Too bad we didn't listen.

So we can lose another war due to strategic blunders by know-nothing political hacks and sycophant generals willing to commit war crimes? What’s the point of investing so much in a tool that can be wasted so throughly for nothing?

No funding increase until DOD passes an audit.

Just think how much MORE economic damage to US and the whole world it would buy… not to mention all crimes against humanity… they are much cheaper when you can commit them wholesale. We have to start cutting our defense budget. Trump’s administration clearly showed us it useless.

If there is not 1000 people surveilling and hacking Vought (and crew) we are done. Fired fbi, fired cia, fired doj, fired anybody. Better be hacking Vought. Tailing Vought ready to cut power to his headquarters. We the people have a duty to perform. Is there anyone who will defend fairness? #Resist

How much of that budget will be used against the American people in the next two years…?

And this from the 🍊 🐔 who loses a war to Iran. Pathetic. #putinsbitch

Do it.

Indeed. How much has the MISMANAGEMENT of the Iran war cost?

Ukraine is beating Russia with a budget that is a small fraction. Probably time to stop funding stuff like LCS that don't work

WTAF 😱

He DID manage to use all the missiles and bombs,plus losing a bunch of aircraft and probably a few ships,so yea,replacements are expensive.Plus 10% off the top.

…Donald the dove…

And you know that those dollars would become fungible under hegseth and trump. Like petty cash

On September 10, 2001, the United States spent more on national defense than the next eight countries combined. All of those billions couldn’t stop 17 religious fanatics from changing our country and the world in a negative way forever. We spent too much on war and not enough on peace.

The military budget is a slush fund like never seen before. Of course he wants it huge, he can skim the hell out of it. Just like a casino but 1000 times bigger and already bankrupt.

They don't need Dems. They control the house and Senate.

He doesn’t understand you have to have limits on things. He’s a rich white man no one ever says the word *no* to and he thinks someone weaponized the word affordability to be mean to him

It’s wild to think we’re spending 2/3 as much as WWII already considering we aren’t fighting an actual world war

This is a big no from me

US - a nation that already spends more than the next 8 nations 'combined' - and has for years...💣 US - a nation $40 Trillion in debt💰 Height of fiscal irresponsibility - meanwhile Trump regime idiotic, chaotic, irresponsible actions have made our nation massively 'less secure' Never forget #Vote 🌊🌊

They didn’t even spend all of last years budget

He can want. But looks like he won't have free reign with the purse....

It has to go through the house. That will never happen after the election.

And most of that money is going to be spent protecting Israel from consequences of it's own actions.

Not for nothing, but Don Jr. is now heavy into selling weapons.
