But that's essentially the situation existing as Trump states his intention with nukes Which is why Trump is looking at areas to cut cost. See how he attacking the plane makers now, to pit them against each other to lower costs. He got Boeing to promise that the new air force one will not exceed 4 billion dollars. Initially, it could have. Yep, he is cutting costs by increasing the amount of nuclear weapons in the US. You know it make sense right ! [8\|]

[8\|] Buy 1 plane, get 2 nukes 50% off... i doubt they will actually be making more nukes. I think it's smoke & mirrors.

I doubt Trump will do much of what he promised. That includes build the wall already part fence, not increase the size of the US Forces since he is talking about ripping up contracts for new planes, noy jail Hilary. Infact not much of anything included in his pre-election rhetoric, or as I like to think of it, bullshit.

Pence will probably be handling the majority of the political stuff.

Probably building his own business ends. It will be interesting to see what happens to investigations into his foundation.

Trump has made much bigger noise about cutting revenues than cutting costs, and been almost as enthusiastic in proclaiming where he will significantly increase costs, as in this instance.. Understand basic accounting. Yeah, and history since 1980 indicates the GOP will be happy to ramp up the national debt with revenue cuts and increased spending.

But even with that; however much Reagan succeeded in increasing the amount of national wealth diverted to the 'defense' industry, his handlers at least did the smarter thing about it, relatively speaking, in all that going to -missile defense- systems. Russia and China can only be happy at this current anachronistic turn of events from the US. Even before Reagan, missile defense replaced "more nukes" as center of the battle, ages ago. Trump seems to be wanting to go all "50's household" in international affairs, completely oblivious to the fact that the other big players clearly look at him being the one wearing the dress and in heels in that scenario.

. . . and all that going over the heads of his supporters.
