Progressives Mouths Are Watering To Get Their Hands On The Pentagon’s Budget, They Want To Defund The Military
Progressives mouths are watering, they can’t wait to get their hands on the Pentagon’s budget.
The strong military that President Trump spent four years rebuilding that destroyed ISIS and kept North Korea, China, and Iran at bay could be defunded.
Missouri Democratic congressional candidate Cori Bush said she can’t wait to take funds away from the Pentagon to increase social programs.
“If you’re having a bad day, just think of all the social services we’re going to fund after we defund the Pentagon,” Bush said.

The group, “The People For Bernie” that was formally Senator Bernie Sander’s campaign replied with a video of Senator Sanders saying, “Bye-bye.”

Bush isn’t the only one looking forward to destroying our military should Joe Biden win in November.
Current Congressman, Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA), who represents Silicon Valley, can’t wait to defund the military.
Next year, we can either:
1. Buy 1 aircraft carrier
or
2. Provide every K-12 student 3 free meals a day.@SenSanders and @Ilhan have bill to ensure no child goes hungry. Proud to support it. pic.twitter.com/e0dKoF3KOi— Rep. Ro Khanna (@RepRoKhanna) October 21, 2020
1 nuclear warhead could pay for 17 million masks.
The Pentagon shouldn’t get a dime more in COIVD relief funding.

Missouri’s Governor, Mike Parson hammered Bush and forced local Democrats to go on the record denouncing Bush’s policy.
It shouldn’t matter whether you are a Democrat or a Republican — every elected official should denounce @CoriBush’s comments on defunding our troops.
As a U.S. Army veteran, this is personal.https://t.co/SvYUWuYs8D

The city of St. Louis Mayor, Lyda Krewson, Democrat, had to go on the record.
Yes, we always need more funding for education, health care & other important services. But I don’t believe it should come at the expense of our armed forces who, among other things, provide geospatial intelligence to keep us safe. I don’t support defunding the Pentagon.

Democrat candidate running against Parsons, Nicole Galloway also denounced the idea of defunding the Pentagon.
I don’t support defunding the Pentagon and Gov. Parson knows it. The Governor’s attacks on me are a distraction from his own failure on COVID-19, healthcare, and the economy. I’ve always supported our veterans and it will be an honor to lead Missouri’s National Guard as governor.

Democrat Jill Schupp running for Congress also denounced Bush.
As the daughter of a marine veteran & an elected official in a state that’s home to thousands of veterans & multiple military installations, I do not believe we should defund the Pentagon.

Here’s the problem Democrats have, no one believes them. Far-left extremists like Bush run the party and the rest of these weak-kneed Democrats will do whatever they are told.
