    It would be a really bad look to spend almost a trillion dollars a year on defense and still get politicians merked.

      Well. None of the money is spent on defense as you claim. It spends on weapons to attack. Not defend.

        The War Department existed from August 7, 1789 until September 18, 1947, when it split into the Department of the Army and the Department of the Air Force. The Department of the Army and Department of the Air Force later joined the Department of the Navy under the United States Department of Defense in 1949.

        You are aware that a fighting force can both defend and attack as they see fit. Yes?

        I’m not claiming anything, that’s what the line item is called, as in the department of defense:

          Attacking is defense. War is peace. Freedom is slavery.

      Completely agree. It’s not about one person. It’s about confidence. Assurance.
