      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.

      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.

      without any real cause or reason

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