President Donald Trump said Thursday that he wants to restart nuclear arms control talks with Russia and China and that eventually he hopes all three countries could agree to cut their massive defense budgets in half.

    I feel like there’s a lot more context to this than is being reported

      Yes, he’ll chop the US stockpile and let Putin carry on as usual. Because Putin suggested it to him as a way of saving money.

      Trump will spout it as one of his bigly clever plans, because he has common sense and is such a brilliant business man. Lot of people tell him. Very clever people.
