And withdraw from NATO.

Offer Britain a take it or leave it deal to align with US or choose to align with Europe.

Open trade negotiations with Russia.

These countries are working against the US.

Yes, leave NATO. Its a burden.

I say we just become the next Russia. Remain an independent free USA. We pick and choose the fights we want to get involved with.

Until western europe chooses to re-liberate themselves, and desperately seeks our help, I also say we cut ties. NATO is globalist controlled.

I want out.

More than that, remove all the pre-staged equipment and supplies if you really want to make a point.

That would be as stupid as Biden up and leaving Afghanistan without coordinating with our "Allies"

Leave NATO, but we need some bases in Europe.

I agree, but better to compare ourselves to Notre Dame than Russia for PR purposes

I don't really think many of the places we have bases will reverse course for that. They know we are still the side to be on, and we will have GAINED power and leverage. It doesn't hurt them to let us continue. What do I know, though.

Considering the here-say around the Five-Eyes agreements, I do not consider certain nations in Europe our "Allies".

That's never going to happen. Many of the European bases are jumping off points to Africa and the middle east. It would decimate our military capability especially special ops in those areas. Now sure we could beef up in the theater and African continent. But I'm not sure that would be ideal.

Military members would be pissed too, lol. Most love being stationed there.

I agree, but we can leave the door open to countries who equitably want to trade with us.

Most of the fighting in Africa these days is in the Sahel or Somalia. So far away from Europe that it’s not really practical. If having a military presence in Africa the Ghana, Uganda or Kenya would be much more ideal.

I didn't feel this way a week ago but the way they've all come out with these displays of "solidarity" with Ukraine is concerning.

I'd recommend we maybe keep a naval base somewhere. Italy seems like they want to stay out of it. They don't really love us but don't hate us either. May be a good place.

It's entertaining to watch their ignorance on parade. Don't stop them.
