Trump says we can’t afford daycare. Can’t afford Medicaid. Can’t afford Medicare. States can handle it. He’s got one priority: “military protection.”
$1.5 trillion for defense in FY2027. Let that sink in. That’s a 40% jump from last year, which was already over a trillion. One of the largest single year military budget increases in American history.
So the question isn’t political. It’s mathematical. You don’t spend $1.5 trillion on defense to sit in a lawn chair. That’s not a defense budget, that’s a shopping list.
Meanwhile grandma can’t afford her medication, your kid can’t get into daycare, and your state — which last time you checked is already broke — is supposed to pick up the slack.
And the kicker? He’s “rebuilding a depleted military.” The same military that was just fine before he started playing with it.
So yeah. Who exactly are we planning to bomb? Because somebody’s got a very expensive answer to a question nobody asked.
Iran’s already on the list apparently. Who’s next, and more importantly — who’s paying for it?
Spoiler: You are. Just not your kids’ daycare. That’s on you.
