>Trump [spoke frankly](https://newrepublic.com/post/208523/trump-no-money-daycare-medicare-fight-wars-military) Wednesday about prioritizing paying for a war over programs such as universal daycare, Medicaid, and Medicare. So frankly, in fact, that the White House [removed](https://newrepublic.com/post/208535/white-house-accidentally-easter-lunch-trump-speech) a recording of his speech after posting it.
Even *this* White House realized how uncaring and Thatcheresque he sounded in that moment. It was cartoonishly evil.

Probably because Trump's mind has significantly degraded since last year.

As if he has the mental capacity to have anything to do with drafting this.

Even if he had a mind, it would be unstable even mounted on a tripod

Congress controls the purse strings.
2027 budget will be written by a house that has a huge democratic majority.

Same plan as every day. He's gonna watch Fox News for 16 hours, have 3 Big Macs before bed, and then spend the night on the toilet lashing out at random people on Truth Social.

Reminds me that this is the same department that spent its last budget month on insane stuff, as they were under budget. They don't need more money.

How *dare* you point out all that lobster, caviar, and steak they spent the military's excess funds on!
Looks like you don't support the troops!

At this point, Trump building a laser on the moon being in the budget wouldn't surprise me.

And a big space shuttle to get the trafficked children to the moon for his friends.
