The Trump budget would lift the legal spending cap on defense and add $54 billion to its topline funds for 2018. It also would increase funding for defense for every other year in the next decade relative to baseline projections.

He is also calling for $2.6 billion to be spent on border security. The bulk of that -- $1.6 billion -- would pay for a "new and replacement" border wall that Trump campaigned on.

$1.6B is not going to cut it.

Have you been in meetings with Trump, where he claims this is all he’ll need or ask for?

Why are you melting down over this?

We have wall being built as we discuss this, and he has said continually the wall is going to be built.

Why are you choosing to believe Reuters over Trump? Reuters has been more truthful with you than Trump? Is that it?
