What is your opinion on the Trump administration's connections with Russian officials during the 2016 campaign? And what is your view on how the defense budget is allocated in the US Military?
Your alternative reality does not allow you to actually do research but instead make ridiculous unsubstantiated (sorry for the big word) claims.  While they probably did not meet with the actual hackers, it is fact that Trump staffers met or spoke with Russian officials during the campaign and that at least one (Flynn) talked about the sanctions Russia received for invading the Ukraine.  Jeff Sessions lied to the Senate Confirmation Committee about his interactions with the Russians.  Rex Tillerson received the highest award a non-russian can receive from his buddy Vlad and oh yeah, those 16 Exon oil fields that he was responsible for getting from the russians but unable to pump oil from.  Guess what?  I could go on and on but you wouldn't get it anyways.  And I won't even go into the budget farce.  One last thing, I am a retired veteran of 21 years active duty.  We know where the billions of dollars for defense are going.  Not to the troops but instead to contractors,& R&D. Silly boy.
