However, all of the service chiefs have told Congress for years that that shutdowns, continuous resolutions and budget caps have significantly harmed their ability to do planned and needed maintenance and modernization, and other initiatives to restore service readiness. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIf for any reason it shuts down the worst thing is what happens to our military,\u201d Trump said on the steps of the Pentagon, as he was greeted by Defense Secretary Jim Mattis. Vice President Mike Pence joined the president for the visit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Trump said a shutdown would impact his efforts to restore military readiness. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe\u2019re rebuilding our military, we\u2019re bringing it to a level it\u2019s never been,\u201d Trump said. \u201cAs you know its been depleted over the last long period of time and when we finish there won\u2019t be anything like it. We need that now more than almost any time in the past.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Trump spoke as the Pentagon a day before Mattis is set to unveil the administration\u2019s national defense strategy, and just weeks before DoD sends its fiscal year 2019 budget request to Capitol Hill. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Pentagon is seeking additional funds to improve the readiness rates of its fleet of ships after a year of two deadly collisions, and restore aircraft and ground forces worn by sixteen years of war operations.
