Conceptually, I’m not opposed to having a powerful military for defense of your own borders and those of allies. It’s a scary world and there are some bad people in positions of power out there.
I am highly opposed to defunding cancer research so we can blow up schools full of small children without any real cause or reason.
Trump wanted to fuck children but he couldn’t go there to do it in person so he remotelly had them fucked in bulk.
If you don’t think that’s important enough to beat cancer research in getting funds then you’re one of those people who doesn’t want to make America great again.
Sure, but there is a tendency in any powerful nation to eventually be co-opted by expansionist or corrupt forces that profit from war. Russia comes to mind but they’re not the only country with weapons eyeing their neighbors, and we do have (or had) obligations to help allies.
But a peaceful military does not exist. Once you increase spending for it to a relevant portion of the national budget, you need to use it to make the economy happy.
You’re right, but again we don’t live in an anarchist like state here we don’t need to worry about bad actor nations or actors in general. I would love there to be a situation where borders and countries disappear and we come together as a species. That does not meet well with the reality of our situation. Even then, I would still think some defensive force necessary because well, I’m not too optimistic on the galaxy at large.

The world is scary because of the US lol.

But there is clearly a reason; deflection from the fact that our president is a pedophile.

Sure there is : Trump had the feeling they might be a threat (and plenty of minors to ask how good he is at feeling)
