The American taxpayer has paid for the defense of Western Europe for since 1945. The European economy has been capable of funding its own defense since the late 1960’s. It is long past time for the USA to let Europe choose its own fate.
The US taxpayer not only saved Europe from the Nazis, the US poured billions into rebuilding the European economy after WWII through the Marshall Plan.
How many Euros did the EU send to the US to rebuild lower Manhattan after 9/11?
Pull all of the troops out of Europe and let them decide their fate.
Uh...a couple of things: Europe WAS the Nazis. If anybody did the saving, it was the USSR.
