Jason Posted February 13, 2020 Posted February 13, 2020 Oops just kidding, Trump's actually raiding the Pentagon budget again, this time for $3.8 billion. Quote U.S. President Donald Trump is preparing to divert $3.8 billion in total from programs across the Department of Defense, including a controversial war account used to fund emergency requirements as well as the procurement of ships, F-35 fighter jets and Army vehicles, to help build his long-promised wall along the southern border, Foreign Policy has learned.

CayceG Posted February 13, 2020 Posted February 13, 2020 So the border wall is basically 6x F-35s, 2x Ospreys, 1x P-8 Poseidon, a delayed Humvee upgrade, a delayed landing ship, and the light attack aircraft the AF doesn't want. That's a shitload of money for really not a whole lot of equipment. Quote

My point is we spend a fuckton on the military. And compared to modern warfighting equipment, a steel bollard wall is not sophisticated or expensive. Quote
