And that this money should be used to buy military equipment only from U.S. companies? Hmmm. Did he come up with this all by himself? Or was there maybe a bit of input from, uh, let’s see — maybe Grumman or Boeing or Lockheed, among others? What a sweet deal! Maybe for the infamous Trump Foundation, too? Just wondering.
