On Sunday's edition of 'This Week with George Stephanopoulos' on ABC, Democratic strategist Cornell Belcher claimed that the cost of bombing a Syrian airbase with 59 cruise missiles this week cost more than it would take to fix the lead-contaminated water problem in Flint, Michgan.



Estimates have predicted that it would cost about $450 million dollars to fix the water problem in Flint, while each of the 59 cruise missiles costs about $1 million, meaning that while the attack on Syria was very expensive, it wasn't quite that expensive.



Congress has already allocated about $120 million for Flint...





CORNELL BELCHER: But this is the political problem for Donald Trump, right? He got 46 percent of the vote. And a lot of that was blue collar, you know, voters who are struggling, who bought into this America First. And America First isn't intervention, right?



We spent more on that missile strike than what it would've taken to fix the Flint water problem, right? So you have a whole cadre of blue collar struggling Americans who rejected this from typical Republicans, and the moment he starts sounding like George Bush and Dick Cheney, I think he has a political problem.
