Trump should strongly use the carrot and stick to get Eurooe to man up or give up.

What are they talking about “protecting the world”?
We haven’t done that since WWII.
Since then it’s all been neocon games with people’s lives and wallet.
More accurate to say we can’t afford the neocons anymore.

The main check on Russian expansionism is Nato, a defence alliance which shields Europe under Americas nuclear umbrella. Its now seen by a growing number of Americans as a scam, abused by freeloading Europeans...Maybe we're tired of being played for fools by European (so-called) elites.

We pay for all the crap... and if it weren't for our strength Russia would have annexed them years ago.
In return Europe mocks us and ‘forgets’ to pay their share of the rent. Eff ‘em.

IMHO NATO needs to be dissolved. We should build another, similar, alliance but one that includes Russia(for the price of behaving somewhat better with their neighbors) and does not include countries that are not willing to pay their fair share, are too far along the islamization process, or are our enemies (Turkey).

To defend the EU, which has the kind of dictatorial control over Europe the Soviets could only dream of.

Trump is right, the others have lounged in a Sugar Daddied state, bragging how awesome their lives are without mentioning that they couldn’t do it without Daddy.

Feel the fear. The fear that they would have to pay for their own lunch.

Europe can defend itself. We don’t need to be there.

Not only do they mock us, they go on vacation. We subsidize their vacations and safety.
Some Repubs don't like domestic welfare, but they love foreign welfare.

Yes, thanks for saying that Biggirl, lets look out for our own damned selves for a while, I wonder why is it outside of private charity Americans feel the need to be cucks to the entire world, I never understood that.
To: dfwgator
Had seen a poll that 52% support leaving the EU.

The puzzle is why their patience (and generosity) has endured for so long. [raises hand] OH, I know! I know!
Because ordinary everyday Americans have had no say in it?

The social welfare state that is Europe is only possible because the money they should be spending on defense they do not have to and they know it.
Liberalism dies quickly when mommy and daddy aren’t footing your bills.

>>Europe can defend itself. We dont need to be there.
Europe shows no signs of finding its balls anytime soon.. They are doomed to be conquered one way or the other. It’s better they fall to the Russians than the Muslims.
