The military industrial complex has been feeding so hard on the bloated, unmanageable military budget that there’s nothing left for actual war fighter training.

Between news like this and Trump’s team we’re more at risk today than we have ever been.

Final note, Trump is such a narcissistic idiot that you know he thinks it’s his destiny and duty to use a nuclear weapon. And there are no adults around to stop him. Every time I think things can’t get worse I remember Trump and the ‘nuclear football’.
