Like Trump, you don't seem to know how NATO even works.
Define "paying their fair share?"

U.S. President Donald Trump's decision to halt intelligence sharing with Kyiv has sparked concerns in Ukraine that Russian missile strikes could now strike the cities without prior warning.
The New York Times reported on March 6 that the freeze on intelligence sharing could hinder vital alerts about incoming Russian drones and missiles.
Trump needs to wake up. This is enabling the Russian to injure and kill more. There is no reason to take away aid that is helping Ukraine protect their people.
After all he says there is too much killing now.

They have and so will other countries like Japan. Eventually the world order will return to the way it was in the early twentieth century.
Is that a good thing?
I'd say Trump is steering the world towards the 19th Century, just with nukes.

Good God, do you guys just repeat every unfounded thing he says?
The modern Global economy is based on size and population. The EU was formed to emulate the United States, not to "screw it."

I bet that if you quit paying the mortgage and the mortgage company didn’t demand payment, you wouldn’t pay either.

And how is Europe cooperating (what we wanted them to do and worked to set up, post-WWII) "screwing" the US while Russia expanding its empire forcibly NOT screwing the US?
I don't think Trump is a KGB/FSB operative... but I do think they manipulated and convinced him to think certain ways, starting in 1987 when they lured him to Moscow to talk about a Trump Moscow deal and he came right back to NY and started taking out newspaper ads arguing that the US should leave NATO, DURING the Cold War.
His world view is so warped in Putin's/Russia's/The U.S.S.R.'s favor it's kind of unbelievable... and even more unbelievable that you "patriots" are being suckered into embracing it so much.

Horrible analogy, but interesting that you've adopted the Trump viewpoint of a rentier that everybody owes something to...

Union jobs made products overpriced and lower quality. That is what gave Japan their foothold into the US Auto market and decimated the US auto industry.

US to stop participating in future military exercises in Europe, Swedish media reports
by The Kyiv Independent news desk March 8, 2025 3:57 PM
The United States has notified its allies that it does not plan to participate in military exercises held in Europe beyond those already scheduled in 2025, Swedish media outlet Expressen reported on March 7.
Sources told Expressen that this will affect several exercises currently in the "drawing board" phase that will be held in Sweden.
Since his inauguration in January, U.S. President Donald Trump has signaled that he wants to pivot American security priorities away from Europe and focus on China and the Indo-Pacific Region.
He shocked allies with recent moves including ending military aid and intelligence sharing with Ukraine, excluding European allies from peace talks held with Russia in Saudia Arabia, and has repeatedly pressuring NATO allies to increase their defense spending.
In response, a rattled Europe has begun preparing itself for a world order in which the United States cannot be relied on. EU member states agreed to free up what could amount to an unprecedented 800 billion euros ($867 billion) for defense spending.
The United States regularly carries out joint operations with European allies each year to increase cooperation and test troop readiness.

So it is the Unions fault, and American workers cannot have power and be paid well.
Okay. What is there for Americans to complain about, then?
