It's weird to see an American president pegging the Military Industrial Complex. I thought Ratheon and Lockheed owned our shit?
Turns out the military-industrial complex is just influential business, and not a cabal of shadow-rulers.
Or both, which any way the wind blows.
My personal theory is that they aren't social media platforms, so the orange man doesn't know what they are. He doesn't know that weapons export is a major US business and by hurting our reputation with our allies, he's steering away customers.
