    'Make 'Em Pay'? Trump Spends $5 Billion On Europe's Defense



    The "European Defense Initiative" was launched after the US-backed coup in Ukraine to counter Russian "aggression" in the region. Its budget has quintupled to nearly $5 billion next year. Hundreds of millions will be spent to rebuild military bases in eastern Europe. What happened to making the Europeans pay for their own defense?

    Is this part of Trump's MEGA plan?

    I was led to believe there would be cuts somewhere...
