If Trump is such a madman

He is dangerous and crazy and a loose cannon trying to provoke war.

So what do Democrats in the Senate do? Vote to increase his military spending making him $80,000,000,000.00 more dangerous.

How do we as a party in one breath say Trump is dangerous and in the other breath say well lets increase his danger by $80 billion?
