I want to move on now to wasteful government spending, particularly the $350 billion set aside for this, yes, war of choice against Iran included in this President's budget. His budget asked for a shocking surge in Pentagon spending up to $1.5 trillion. We have never in the history of this country seen spending like this paid for by slashing health care, education and housing. Donald Trump has said, as my colleagues have said earlier, we're fighting wars here. We can't take care of daycare. Mr. Vote yes or no, is $350 billion for the war in Iran lowering costs for Americans? (03:51–03:59)
