Rubio: Imagine if Iran funded the well-being of its people, rather than its military
Trump, two days later: We can’t fund daycare or Medicaid, we need more money for our military
CAMPAIGN TRUMP: “Child care is child care. You have to have it. We’re going to make this into an incredible country that can afford to take care of its people. America first.”
PRESIDENT TRUMP: “We can’t take care of daycare. Just military.” 🤔 🤷🏼
#StopTheWar
Trump has proposed a $1.5 trillion defense budget — a 40% increase, the largest since WWII.
In exchange for more war he wants to:
-Cut the EPA budget by half
-Cut $10.7 billion for housing
-Cut $8.5 billion for K-12 programs
-Cancel $15 billion for clean energy
-Cut $2.5 billion for clean drinking water
-Eliminate $1.6 billion for youth job training
-Cut $3.5 billion from the Labor Department
-Eliminate $395 million for senior employment
-Eliminate $775 million in food assistance grants
-Eliminate the National Endowment for Democracy
-Cut $5 billion from the National Institutes of Health
-Eliminate the Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP)
In all, cuts to domestic programs would account for a 10% reduction in discretionary spending.

We were on the ground with @BernieSanders to investigate why.
