Excellent first reduce the cost of the 2 new AF1’s by billion, now scrap the worthless over priced F-35 or make them reduce the cost by billions.

The Military is one of the big PORK projects congress critters use. Fraud Continue In the Middle of the Government Shutdown http://www.washingtonsblog.com/201

Trump is right to consider canceling the F-35

Why not bring the F-22 back into production, drop the F-35, and build some more A-10’s?

“now scrap the worthless over priced F-35”

It won't happen. It's too late, too much money has already been invested in development/production, 200 were already produced, many more are on order, including orders from 10 foreign buyers. It's “too big to fail”.

“build some more A-10’s?”

A-10 is concept from the 70’s, it's great to fight savages (and they should keep it in several squadrons for that purpose) but would be useless in case of full scale war against any enemy with decent air defense.
