    Again, my point. Not military hardware for going to war. Not the MIC Ike spoke about. That hasn't existed since Vietnam ended last century, 45 years ago.

    BTW, the Democrats who supported downsizing the military and replacing them with civilian contractors. Get a grip on reality, it's great!

    They have never made guns and bombs, but the military is so much more. We have always had civilian contractors. After WW2 . Trump had a committee and they scrutinized the military contractors and showed all how we were being cheated. That was his claim to fame that got him on the ticket with FDR., This is not new and my grip is fine.
