Ryan: Trump’s Trying to Get the Balance Right Between the Military and Domestic Spending

EXCERPT:

RYAN: “Well, we haven’t seen the full budget yet. You just saw a piece of a budget, which is what a new administration always does. But this is a promise that he made that we also ran on, which is our military has been hollowed out. We have gutted our military in many, many ways. And we had huge increases in domestic spending, so he is trying to get that balance right. We have long believed that we put our spending out of balance on what we call discretionary spending. We’ve hurt the military and we’ve given a lot of lift in other areas. He’s trying to get that balance right.”
