It seems US policy will be run less by European Globalists under President Trump!

MAGA

In my book NATO IS obsolete and has outlived its purpose.

They lost me when the allowed Obama to lead from behind and did the bombing in Libya on his and Hillary’s behalf.

As long as Turkey is in NATO, NATO is worse than obsolete.

Trump the truth speaker.

If you like your NATO alliance, then you’re going to have to pay for your NATO alliance. The days of American paying for your defense is over.

You have to be awful dumb to take the statements of testifying before a Senate committee seriously. Its a grandstanding circus. The fact is ultimately Trump will get what he wants. Elections have consequences.

NATO became obsolete after the fall of the Berlin Wall and the USSR.

Bill Clinton kept it alive in part by bringing it in on the side of the muslims in Herzegovina and Bosnia.

NATO is obsolete not because they lack effective anti-terror police units, but because European leaders in general don’t see a problem with being invaded and islamized by muslim savages. As Mark Steyn says, They’ve become the defenceless, clueless Eloi soon to be enslaved by the islamic morlocks.

What he said. Times have changed and we need to update our scorecards. NATO. The UN. The EPA, ATF, IRS, et al in their current configurations have long outlived their usefulness and either need to be seriously modified or eliminated altogether.

"Yes, once again American defence proves its effectiveness against international communism. Using this diagram of a tooth to represent any small country, we can see how international communism works by eroding away form the inside (diagram of tooth rotting from inside and collapsing) When one country or tooth falls victim to international communism, its neighbours soon follow. (the remaining teeth fall sideways into the gap) In dentistry, this is known as Domino Theory. but with American Defense the decay is stopped before it starts and that's why nine out of ten small countries choose American defense."

NATO will be obsolete to us when we’re out.

Until then, our neck is on the line for a slew of countries, should war happen.

There are two definitions. No longer used. an Out of Date.

The second one is correct. The first one needs to be done when he gets in office.

Though, to be honest, we all Cheered when Reagan broke up the USSR. It would be wrong to turn our backs on Eastern European countries that Putin just might want back one day.

Missile defense system would have been better than the 3500 boots on the ground.

Arm them and even train them, but get he troops out.

NATO is the new USSR. Or the military wing, at least.

Simple test: how many NATO countries are run by socialists or have a de facto socialist government?

Almost all of them, including the US, qualify.

NATO attacked Serbia, Libya and is helping kill Christians in Syria by arming Jihadists. US out of NATO now.

NATO was originally formed to protect Europe from a mass invasion by hostile forces.

Now it's job is to provide hot meals and build shelters for a mass invasion of hostile Muslim invaders.

NATO is obsolete and needs to be reformed .

In the most likely scenario these days, when Russian tanks come streaming through the Fulda Gap, they won't be met with NATO guns and tanks, they will be met with young girls with flowers begging the Russians to liberate them from the Muslim reign of intimidation, terror and rape.

In my book, NATO is a massive parasite latched onto the US and has been evolving into little more than a transnational organized crime outfit specializing in fraud.

Never thought I’d see the day that Progs became warmongers. But just part of the President Trump effect, I guess!
