We have to look at increasing military spending to be able to keep pace with countries like China and Russia. And the proposed budget, I think, was really an insult to our military.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>Follow Trent Baker\u00a0on Twitter\u00a0<a class=\"x5l\" href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/MagnifiTrent\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener external\">@MagnifiTrent<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rep.
