Increase military spending? That money needs to come from somewhere.

He also outright lied.. He claims he would uphold the second amendment, yet his entire political career he's been 100% anti gun.

Also, keep in mind the potential of war with Iran. The US has slightly under 3 million combined armed forces while Iran has 12.5 million. Obama made it very clear that he wouldn't hesitate.
He has also voted in tax cuts and IRS changes.

150 billion over 10 years, not today. That comes from correcting Gov programs that are sucking all the money away and a war that is triple sucking it away, and taxing companies the right way. A conservative Gov view.

With guns, he has voted on gun limitations and bans, if you read them they are targeted around pushing for the States right to choose. He is fine with retired Police having concealed weapons, so he can't be totally anti-gun.

We won't be going to war with Iran or Russia. First, Iran it wouldn't be us doing it, it would be the United Nations. And we have no reason to attack Russia, we couldn't lie our way into Georgia if we tried.
