We need to start framing the military as an inefficient and wasteful cost the same way they frame healthcare.
"What if the government abuses their free use of the military and they don't really need it?"
"We don't want to give the Pentagon handouts, they'll become dependent and won't have an incentive to work!"
"They're just taking they money and using it to buy drugs and alcohol!"
"Year over year there's no profit, they're always in the red! Spending all this time on indoctrination that they call "training", how hard can it be, just aim and pull the trigger!"
It's already framed that way with 50000 toilets and whatever the fuck, just nobody has the balls of trump and opportunity to say it in debate
Pretty sure an average lefty with fair debate skills could wipe the floor with him.
