Yes. According to Trump he said “I would tell Russia to do whatever the hell they want to you” if that country didn’t pay as much as Trump likes. How do you interpret that? It seems a pretty blatant invitation for Russia to attack a NATO ally which is very concerning for 2 reasons: 1) Trump is either single-handedly disbanding treaties, or 2) he doesn’t understand how NATO work. I assume it’s a blend of the two.


IIRC Germany was one of the countries who Trump has to basically embarrass to get them to spend their share on defense. His point was valid, why are we taking on responsibility for protecting you when you aren’t taking responsibility?
