On Jan 21st, 2017 every NATO country should receive an official letter from the POTUS saying if they do not achieve 2% of GDP on military spending in 18 months, and sustain it, they forfeit their right to common defense under the treaty and no US resources will be expended to defend them.

The very same notice should go to every Asian ally as well.

Bingo, exactly right. Who the heck does this broad think she is? She’s nothing and had better shut up before she does even more damage to herself and NATO.

“German defense minister says Trump can’t treat NATO like a business”

Screw you.

He’ll treat NATO anyway he pleases.

Nobody cares what Germany thinks.

Was that the German Depends minister? Sounds like it.

Trump is going to dialogue with them and come to an arrangement. Why not? He represents us, not them.

Folks, I don’t really want a full fledged German military in Europe. We tried that twice last century.

There is a price to keep peace that is reasoned. Trump will seek that price and make a deal.

I believe Donald said each member country must pay their fair share - no freeloaders

Trump is not treating NATO like a business. He is telling the member states that the time for freeloading is over.

Germany is a wealthy country and it is about time that they picked up a bigger share of the cost.

PS. Dear German officials, do not tell Trump what he can or can’t do. When he farts in your face you will take it and like it.

At least NATO chief Stoltenberg has supported Trump and said defence spending must go up.

And, the NATO line should be higher. 4-5 percent.

Yes in a way it is a business.

Every employee pulls their fair share. Time for Europe, Japan and Germany to pull their fair share.

Who gives a crap about Germany? They are creating a Muslim state in the heart of Europe. It seems that in 20 years, the U.S. and Russia will have top defend itself FROM a Muslim Germany.
