So I think the media is presenting it as chaos, when rather it’s his move to redirect money into American problems within the country, not outside.
Let's fact-check that. The state department oversees negotiation of trade and foreign negotiations including diplomacy, i.e. looking after US interests to the outside world by non-violent means including trade.
Trump is slashing state department funding (and don't rely on what you think; read what people who work with these institutions are saying) to give money to (primarily) the military, who looks after US interests abroad by violent means.
So you have to define "American problems" in some way to conform to that reality; i.e. not as having to do with trade or negotiations, but about military power.
What problems are those, exactly? Syria/ISIS is trying to be solved using an international coalition (and with considerable success), but nobody suggested that it was a matter of military power, i.e. hundreds of thousans of US troops in Iraq & Syria.
Meanwhile, which "American problems" are Trump focusing on? Surely not the problem of getting health insurance if you are above 60 and not rich (24 mil. are projected to loose insurance), or the problem of global warming, or the problem of safety regulations if you are a minor, or the problem of various environmental problems which will be made worse by the slashing of e.g. the EPA, or the problem of getting your kids educated if you are not rich.
The budget can be spun various ways, but if you just look at the numbers Trumps budget can be more fairly described as "reducing funding for domestic programs that deal with health/safety for common people, reduce funding for US diplomacy and give tax reduction to the rich and increase military spending". If you disagree please show me which items I am missing out on.
Another thing to consider is what has out state department become? It has become a “political” state department. From 1789 to about 9/11 that’s not what it was. Now it’s another bloated government agency spilling and crossing over into other departments.
I got no idea what this means and It sounds like pure opinion.
Yes, the state department has expanded, reflecting the increasing needs for diplomacy and negotiation of trade agreements in a more and more globalized world where problems aren't resolved by military. Why is that bad?
