State of the Union

Thus They rage war and fund it so we can manufacture weapons...
Totally wrong.
That money could do so much in OUR Country and not sponsor WAR..

America perpetuating War is WRONG. Just put the $$$ to Our America, that would equal to the manufacturing Dollars, more than likely more..

"The U.S. government sold $41.9 billion in weapons to foreign partners in 2017, the Pentagon announced Thursday.

The total was a 25 percent increase over sales in 2016, but short of records set in 2015 and 2012. The announcement does not include a breakdown of who bought the weapons or what types of weapons were sold.

President Donald Trump has been pushing for more U.S. arms sales, tweeting in September that he would help Japan and South Korea buy more weapons. The administration has taken a hands-on approach to arms sales, with his son-in-law Jared Kushner personally calling the chief executive of the world's largest defense company, Lockheed Martin, to help build a package of $110 billion in sales to Saudi Arabia."

Ukraine ranks as the world's 60th-most corrupt nation, according to Transparency International's 2018 ranking. Countries considered more corrupt include Mexico, Nigeria, Kenya and Iraq — all of which have received the Trump administration's approval to import U.S.-made weapons, including attack planes, armed helicopters and missiles.

Deals to these countries include:

Mexico: MH-60R submarine-hunting helicopters, $1.2 billion.
Mexico: Harpoon missile and Mk-54 torpedo, $98.4 million.
Mexico: Evolved Seasparrow tactical missiles, $41 million.
Iraq: warplane logistics, $1 billion.
Iraq: machine guns, rifles and armored vehicles and other infantry equipment, $295.6 million.
Iraq: warship repairs, $150 million.
Iraq: armed Bell 407 helicopters, $82.5 million.
Nigeria: armed A-29 Super Tucano attack planes, $593 million.
Kenya: attack planes, $418 million.
Kenya: attack helicopters, $253 million.

Conservative hypocrisy in action folks...
