Maintaining nuclear assets and a technological advantage requires money.
Maintaining the ability to actually project power overseas requires money.
Both of these are a key part of American deterrence strategy. Its not a left/right policy to fund the military. Its about why you’re funding it and the dems were funding it for the goal of maintaining global security which is a left wing liberal idea. You can’t put your head in the sand and ignore geo politics.
Now its up to you to do the damage of 1000 men.
