It's okay guys they can just cut the budget of the environmental department

He's pretty much planning to cut every department that is usefull for the average citizen to increase military spending instead.
(Oh yeah and the fucking wall but I doubt the wall will ever pass in congress.)

Lol it doesn't matter democrat or republican or trump, military spending will always increase because freedom!  And should probably get China to adhere to the same climate change accords in the meantime.

If freedom is the goal, there are much better ways to spend that money.

Economically I'm not saying it's great, but it provides jobs and more work for thousands of engineers, among other roles.  $800 billion or whatever total for the military is huge, but the amount of jobs and work that money provides is also enormous.  The rest $3 trillion spending goes to social security, Medicare, Medicaid, etc...

NASA's budget is only $18 billion a year. Kinda depressing, but then again a lot of military spending goes on R&D either directly or indirectly.

Sure but if you would spend that 800 billion somewhere else, you could still create jobs and actually achieve something better than new tools of destruction.
