So Justme....where's that 10% pay raise that Trump promised the military?
The House controls pay raises for the military, they rejected Trump's recommended pay raise. The Democrat controlled House hates the military because they stand for pride in the country and respect for the Constitution.

General Mattis was spot on saying Obama damaged our military

**oil,...from the link you provided....
".. Congressional leaders from both sides of the aisle, who guard Congress' "power of the purse," said Sunday that Trump's budget request is only a suggestion that will be picked apart in their deliberations, as have others in the past..*
Congress has the final say....But the President tried..and that is OK.. :)

Trump's pay increases have been more than double of any pay raise Obama ever given our troops. Obama cut military staffing and funding, Trump has increased staffing and giving them more money to replace and repair outdated and broken equipment, the very reason General Mattis phrases Trump and bitch slapped Obama.

From what I remember the republicans controlled congress and the white house for 2 years and they couldn't get it done.

Keep on stepping in your bullshit...

From Westmoreland on down, I never trust generals who mouth off about politics.

If a president appoints you to some job, you look better if you display some gratitude and don't mix into politics.

Remember Powell, who was a "Republican" until he got four stars and became Sec of State and then he suddenly discovered he loved Barry Obama the socialist?
