“as events in Washington DC signal deteriorating Western alliances.”

I think he means, “as it appears that Europe will stop leeching off the Americans for their defense”

I mean if a relationship therapist were to observe, they woul label this as one-sided

When has NATO ever said a word about our foreign invesion or for that matter what have they done about Russia invading Ukraine

Yes because the US is likely leaving NATO and Europe can protect itself.

We’ll see if the Yurps actually come up with the money to start providing for their own defense. I’m extremely skeptical.

If they do, they’re not going to have much choice but to buy a lot of gear from US Defense Contractors. They are much bigger and have much more advanced systems and weapons than their European counterparts by and large because they’ve been so much better funded for so long.

Russian hatred and more dead Ukrainians feed the defense industry.

That's always been an objective of the proxy war in Ukraine.
