Donald Trump Signs Military Funding Bill: Armed Forces Must Be ‘Perfecto’

President Donald Trump signed a military spending bill on Tuesday, promising a “strong military” with the best equipment during his presidency. “We need our military, its got to be ‘perfecto,’” Trump said, urging Congress to remove military sequester caps and pass a clean funding bill for the government next year.

Trump called the military funding bill a “momentous“ occasion and a great step in funding the “greatest fighting force in the history of the world.”

He said that the bill increased the size of the armed forces budget for the first time in seven years, and included the largest military pay increase in eight years.

The president signed the bill in a White House ceremony with members of the United States Armed Forces including Joint Chiefs Chairman Gen. Joseph Dunford and Secretary of Defense Gen. James Mattis.

Trump even thanked Sen. John McCain for the work he did to get the bill through the Senate.

I hope that very soon President Trump deals with the Generals who consistently disregard his Orders regarding the US Military as to who the US Military accepts, and overlooking the Constitution granting the President the sole powers of being the Commander In Chief.

If Obama could sign an Executive Order allowing Transsexuals into the US Military it stands to reason that President Trump can sign an Executive Order barring Transsexuals from joining the US Military.

LOL, I just love this. Heheheh, “perfecto”...that is the way we might talk to each other, but sophisticated liberals and their sympathetic GOPe counterparts are horrified!

It is almost as if he does it deliberately because he knows it will make them grit their teeth!

You are absolutely right! How can we have a strong military with perverts weakening it from within? How can we any longer have any confidence in our once great armed forces?

While we need to take care of those who serve and we need to maintain an adequate strategic defense, military spending is choking American productivity and economic growth. You don't have to be a Nobel Prize economist to notice the decaying infrastructure and loss of productive jobs to other nations.

Back to all male infantry and special ops which is the de facto reality but needs to be official policy again, and no transgendered recruits who, regardless of their individual zeal, are a significantly higher liability in both mental and physical readiness. I doubt either of those things will happen.

Even better! More cultural appropriation, please! (After all, isn’t that an American characteristic...taking on the best of a given culture that we like, and discarding the rest?)
