Trump: We Are Spending 700 Billion, the More We Have Ever Spent on the Military

EXCERPT:

TRUMP: "And to a large extent, because of what I witnessed, we may do something like that on July 4th in Washington down Pennsylvania Avenue. I don’t know. We will have to try to top it. But we had a lot of planes going over, we had a lot of military might, and it was really a beautiful thing to see. They had representatives from different wars and different uniforms, it was really so well done. But I came back and one of my early calls was, 'I think we will have to start looking at that ourselves.' So we're actually thinking about Fourth of July, Pennsylvania Avenue, having a really great parade to show our military strength. We are spending $700 billion, more than we have ever spent on the military. Which is a good thing for you because we’re friends. And I think we are looking forward to doing that. I'm speaking with General Kelly and with all of the people involved. We will see if we can do it this year, but we certainly will be beginning to do that."
