Our defense budget is a jobs program for red states. The military sometimes says "please stop funding this useless boondoggle" and then is told "we can't do that, it'd put 5k people in Indiana out of work" (this has happened with some tanks etc. recently I know of for sure). This doesn't even get into how many states have things like military bases or basically no upward mobility outside of a military job (the latter is an issue for the South especially). 2. Politicians say it needs to be so high due to NATO - effectively arguing that the US should be subsidizing Europe's defense costs. Whether this is TRUE or not is something I know nothing about. (You hear 2 more from democrats than republicans, but both of these things affect both parties) There's also just plain ol' propaganda. Every time the defense budget is cut half the country freaks out and froths at the mouth until it's restored (Obama cut it by some tiny % and people were upset until the cuts were reversed). Our budget is stupidly high - we spend a lot of money on things that are basically useless. It's effectively impossible for a democrat to permanently lower the defense budget and no republican ever will. Of course this will eventually change, but not anytime soon.

All the political headlines are about impeachment or 2020. It's also not something that one party or the other is purely responsible for so partisans aren't interested in it. | ||

It depends on how the public feels about it I can only hope that republican senators understand that trump doesn't value loyalty nor does he have any towards them | ||

i know this is almost impossible to make and i doubt it would win any game but WK is truly immortal, just look at the video when WK dies and reincarnates, the cd is enough there for the linger of the helm to keep it alive until reincarnation is avalaible again. | ||
