How unreasonable that Trump, as president of the US, wants to put our interests first... (/sarc)
NATO no longer serves a useful purpose for us or for the world. Time to scrap it and go with a new construct.
One where the Euros defend themselves.
More Pat Buchanan isolationism..... Let everything go to “hell in a handbasket” and just don’t worry about it. It’s like owning a piece of property and not maintaining it for about 20 years, and thinking that you saved money long term.
> “”I can only hope that the election campaign in the USA does not lack the perception of reality,” Frank-Walter Steinmeier said.”
Herr Steinmeier, you have your own reality to worry about, a reality that threatens your nation and Europe and for which your own Chancellor is completely out of touch with.
Putting all those other countries first for so long is what has the US sucking wind now!
Screw Germany.
The US has allies? Any that pull their weight?
There shouldn’t even be an “international security architecture”
Very soon each EU country will recognize the need for a standing military and where is the money for THAT coming from?
Unless they want to see Vlad up front and personal they better start turning butter into steel.
The world media.....! What can we say? Our media is afraid
Donald Trump doesn’t know enough about world affairs, yet he has hotels, golf courses and whatever in many countries.
Our “allies” are afraid he’s TOO AMERICAN! and will make them pay their fair share. OH ME.
We’ve allowed our white hut employee and our elite employees kiss “our allies” grits for too many years.
IT’S FINALLY TIME for WE AMERICANS put our country FIRST !!
Welfare to the World ENDS IN JANUARY, and they are losing their collective minds over it.
I remember Dominic DeVillepan of France, telling us about how we live in a multipolar world when we were denied airspace when attacking Iraq. In essence, he was saying that the Europeans, not the US, should decide which wars Americans should die in.
That was when I knew NATO was over.
The war on patriotism, carried out by people high in our political structure since the late 1940s, has also been reflected in a State Department that has discouraged patriotism among the Western nations, in general. The idiotic EU--sold for the benefits of a monetary & commercial alliance--that has actually warred on the cultural heritages of the member States; was basically a promotion of our State Department. If reason returns, there is no reason that the EU could not be modified into something that provides economic benefits, while respecting the once vibrant & distinct cultures achieved over the centuries.
These nations are pouring all of their treasury into socialist efforts to keep their nation afloat. High unemployment and other consequences of a top down economic control spends much on bureaucrats and leave little money left over for defense.
This SOB forgets who helped re build his country after it was destroyed by the mistakes his country made in not one, but TWO world wars.
Eff you, you leech! Its about over for your blood sucking and if your countrymen and women dont get with it and throw your asses out, we will stand by and watch in amazement as you AGAIN go down the hole.
I guess that the Euros are upset since we won’t be paying for their national defence anymore. I guess they expect us to do it while they allow their countries to be invaded.
It’s like co-dependency in a bad relationship. The U.S. has been the enabler of so many others, (countries, religious groups, sexual orientation groups), for so long and have given of ourselves to prop of those groups to our own detriment. That when we even start to say enough is enough that we get shouted down, slapped around and then told to get back to work and give them what ever they desire.
The only way to stop that cycle is to leave it and don’t turn back when the abusers say that they’ll change if we give them one more chance. We as a country need to look after our own interests and quit propping up everyone else to our detriment.
Perhaps the NATO funding and arms should go directly to the people of the European nations so they can exact justice against their own treasonous politicians (and the sub-human muslim invaders).
Just like those in the US who are on welfare but are perfectly able to work, they should have some skin in the game or not receive the free ride at the expense of those who do work. Trump is going to change the US welfare check to the rest of the world and demand they put some of their own skin in the game be it military defense, loans to poor countries, etc. I love it, Trump said the US will no longer give to any government that votes against America’s interests. Oh that’s going to piss some people off.
