Is Luria confused?

Elaine Luria wrote a whole op-ed about the need for Navy to be ready to combat China saying, “The defense budget tells the American people and allies that although we say China is a threat, we are not taking action to respond.”

But Luria praised Biden’s budget which forces the Navy to cut construction of high-tech ships “crucial in confronting China.” 

Huh? Will Luria stand up to Biden’s budget that could hurt VA shipbuilders and our national security or is she just a phony politician playing partisan games?
