This is so wrong -

First, it was the Obama/Biden Administration that approved funding for the U. 
S. nuclear arsenal upgrade.
This article states it is Trump who is resposible - which is just false.
(For the record: Trump is a dangerous creep)

Second, to suggest that the U. S. capitalists are going to change their long 
held policies, to use militarism
to advance their economic interests - and to financially benefit from these 
wasteful weapons and huge profits
is just wrong.

Third, this is just pro-Biden b.s. promoted to create false illusions that the 
corporate dems "favor peace".

Fourth, how does "slashing" ten percent do anything but cause illusions that 
the U. S. military - is not what it is?
The current health crisis is exacerbated by the military barack/ship confines, 
as it was in the 1918 virus pandemic.

Fifth, the U. S. military is one of the largest contributors to the harms of 
Climate Change.
Cutting it ten percent is insufficient.  Does anyone on this list believe that 
the U. S. Airforce is going to "stand down"?

Only ending capitalism, will end these weapons of harm (nuclear weapons, 
biological weapons, etc.)
"reforming the wolves of greed" is a liberal reformist illusion. The CP 
political thinkers have accepted that illusion,
with their "peaceful co-existence"  b. s. that the former stalinists states 
promoted, to justify not having revolutions
to end the capitalist greed and harm to this world.   How did that work out?
