CNBC reports that “after five years of budget cuts and the drawdown from two wars, the U.S. Defense Department budget has shrunk by about 15 percent, according to the department’s data.”

“Donald Trump wants to change that.”

“Trump has made a proposed buildup of the U.S. military a centerpiece of his wider agenda to ‘take back our country.'”
