Bullshit, we have the military readiness that the Sequester allowed. It certainly doesn't hamper drone strikes, special ops and large scale military exercises in Poland. New ships are being christened and rail guns and combat lasers are nearing deployment.

The development of those and other 'dramatic leap' weaponry continued apace under Obama.

But I suppose Trump and Romney want our 1916 Navy back again. LOL!

You want to spend more on Defense? Raise taxes.

And the 95 million, for the umpteenth time, is a bogus number and so very, very easy to fact check. The retired and the disabled alone knock a full 60M off of that figure.

The real deal behind the 94 million Americans Trump says are out of work

President Trump cited a misleading statistic to cast the job market as weaker than it truly is.

"Tonight, as I outline the next steps we must take as a country, we must honestly acknowledge the circumstances we inherited. Ninety-four million Americans are out of the labor force," Trump said Tuesday night.

Here's the real deal on that stat: Some 95.1 million people are not in the labor force, but the vast majority of them don't want a job, according to the most recent quarterly data from the Atlanta Federal Reserve.

Some 44.1 million are retired, 15.4 million are disabled, 12.9 million are taking care of a family member and another 15.5 million are in college or job training. They are listed as not wanting a job

Worst military readiness since Carter.
And 95 million unemployed or underemployed...
