    Trump’s comments on NATO and Russia stir international backlash

    Haters don't really hate you, in fact they hate themselves because you are a reflection of what they wish to be.

    So sad to see yet another hit piece by one of the usual suspects. PBS. You trust PBS?????

    NATO should pay for their share for the defense. Trump is right, again.
    If you're not outraged, you're not paying attention!

      I will trust PBS a lot more than your source Gateway Pundit or Fox's trash. Please tell me how it's a hit job when they are recording what your cult(rapist) leader is saying out of his own mouth live.

        Liberals don’t understand that people should pay for services rendered….they think they shouldn’t have to pay at all, someone else will.

        Sound familiar SS?

                That’s not how it works. Read the link I posted for further explanation that is unbiased.

                  Not what your cult(rapist) leader said. You don't kneel for the king I will ENCOURAGE them to do whatever the hell they want. With Friend like that who needs friends!

                  You didn’t pay? You’re delinquent?’” Trump recounted saying. “‘No, I would not protect you. In fact, I would encourage them to do whatever the hell they want. You gotta pay. You gotta pay your bills.’”

                        HOW IS NATO FUNDED?
                        Trump has often accused other NATO members of not paying their dues, giving the impression that the alliance is like a club with membership fees.
                        But NATO operates differently. It has some common funds, to which all members contribute. But the vast bulk of its strength comes from members' own national defence spending - to maintain forces and buy arms that can also be used by NATO.
                        However, NATO members have committed to spending at least 2% of their Gross Domestic Product (GDP) every year on defence - and most of them did not meet that goal last year.
                        HOW MANY NATO MEMBERS MEET THE DEFENCE SPENDING TARGET?
                        According to NATO estimates, opens new tab from July last year, 11 members were expected to meet the 2% target in 2023. Those members were Poland, the United States, Greece, Estonia, Lithuania, Finland, Romania, Hungary, Latvia, Britain and Slovakia.
                        Germany, Europe's economic heavyweight, was estimated at 1.57%. But German officials have said they expect to meet the 2% target this year, partly thanks to a special 1-billion-euro fund established in response to Russia's war in Ukraine.
                        The lowest spenders as a share of national GDP were Spain, Belgium and Luxembourg, according to the NATO figures.
                        NATO is expected to release updated figures in the coming days that will show more allies meeting the 2% target, according to people familiar with the data.

                        Haters don't really hate you, in fact they hate themselves because you are a reflection of what they wish to be.

                            BBQ, I laugh every time you bring up the union because I know you have nothing else debate over, and you have lost the debate. BBQ have a nice day at work.

                              You are a lost cause. An honest Gateway Pundit you hate. PBS ran by Marxist's and Globalistsyou like.

                              I get it, Comrad....
