I looked at the budget. You can't add to the military and reduce taxes and hope it all works out. You should look at where your tax dollars go. And where our tax income comes from.

He wants to cut corporate tax by a lot. I was going to say half but not willing ot open the brackets and check that.
"The Trump Plan protects all low-income and middle-income Americans and lowers their taxes. As the Tax Foundation put it: ?Donald Trump?s plan is a tax cut for all income groups, while Hillary Clinton?s plan is a tax increase on selected income groups?. The Tax Foundation determined that, on average, taxpayers will receive a tax cut of $1,818 under the Trump Plan, but a tax increase of $176 under the Clinton plan. [Tax Foundation, Sept. 23, 2016]"
That is 300 billion dollars of tax cuts just on the income tax side. Add in coprorate taxes.
The military buildup is hard to get good numbers. I can't find "active duty soldier" numbers now to see here he wants to go. We have about 23 Marine battalions and he wants 36. I doubt he is projecting a 50% increase in military spending.
You might want to read his website. Not much on the deficit. Neither does Hillary btw.
