Trump on military spending: "It's artificial. It's a little bit high... let them take out Los Angeles, let them take out San Diego. This is a very small price to pay." He's literally floating the idea that letting enemy forces destroy major American cities is preferable to actual defense spending. Not a metaphor. Not a gaffe. A direct statement that American lives in those cities are expendable against his budget concerns. This is what happens when a real estate grifter with no strategic knowledge gets security clearance and nuclear codes.
