    Trump Hammers NATO. Good! Let's Get Out!

    Trump Hammers NATO. Good! Let's Get Out!



    President Donald Trump started his European tour with a bang, accusing Germany of hyping the Russian threat to get US protection while sending billions of dollars to Russia for its oil. The Europeans are not amused. Fasten your seat belts!

    If we leave NATO, Western Europe will curse itself shortly thereafter when the truth of what it meant to have Americans pay 90% of their national defense for 70 years. comes home to roost like a bullet.

    I hope we do it. We will see how long their socialist paradise <spew> <hizzom> <hizzom> <hizzom> lasts when they have to choose between "free" medical care and not being eaten by the bears.

    I hope to hell eastern Europe leaves the west to perish under the overbearing weight of its own brutal idiocy. When they collapse in the wake, and I'd bet money I don't have that they would - all else equal - God forbid that Americans bail their retarded selves out yet again. Let the despicable western Europeans burn or get some sense. Their choice, their job.

    There is only one correct way: freedom. All other solutions are non-solutions.

    It appears that artificial intelligence is at least slightly superior to natural stupidity.

    Our words make us the ghosts that we are.

    Convincing the world he didn't exist was the Devil's second greatest trick; the first was convincing us that God didn't exist.

    Me too. I don't think that many progressives actually understand that 70 years of European Social welfare "success" is backed by zero concerns about their own collective security.

    It won't take very long to get them home but it won't be overnight either but Iraq says they can't stay and they are coming home just like Trump said.

    He was already singing the opposite tune this morning. Same old Trump.
    "And now that the legislators and do-gooders have so futilely inflicted so many systems upon society, may they finally end where they should have begun: May they reject all systems, and try liberty; for liberty is an acknowledgment of faith in God and His works." - Bastiat

    In 2016, Trump talked of the US leaving NATO. Now, he says other countries should put more money in it. These are not the same. I don't think Trump wants the US out of NATO anymore.

    He just wants 4% of their GDP to be paid to our MIC.

    It will take time to create the support for leaving NATO, pushing the other members to increase their spending is intended to create an excuse when they don't.

    I disagree but even that would be more fair and improve our economy while helping to collapse their socialist systems.
