Because the US makes up for the lack of funds from the NATO nations that are not contributing 2% of GDP.

No they don't.

This involves the “mission creep” that every agency uses to grow their workforce of Federal employees. He is right on the mark and we are talking billions. Maybe you could have thought about it for at least a minute...this isn’t rocket science.

There's nothing specific in that. Every U.S. presidential candidate pledges to end waste, fraud, and abuse but none seem to be able to identify any that they eliminate.

We shall see. Politicians find it easier to cut taxes than cutting debt and government.

What do you meen? Are you saying there are no NATO nations not living up to their agreement or are you saying that the US doesn’t make up for it?

Trump’s been a bit busy running for the Presidency, maybe you could cut him and the team some slack. Do you know how much time and manpower it would take to go line item by line item?
