It's time to educate the cowardly, retarded Brits and Canadians coming at me in my NATO post. Trust me, weaklings, you need us far more than we need you!🤣✏️Pull up a chair, because class is in session:
NATO's charter (Article 5) only covers attacks on members in Europe/N. America - that's true. But claiming it "doesn't allow help with Iran" is dishonest.
NATO ditched the pure-defense straitjacket decades ago:
•Bombed Kosovo 1999 without UN approval.
•Turned Libya 2011 civilian protection mandate into regime change.
•Ran 20-year offensive ops in Afghanistan.They act as aggressors/out-of-area interveners whenever they feel like it. The Iran "no" isn't the charter, it's politics. If they wanted in, they'd find a way, just like before.
Why the US Doesn't GAF What Canada Thinks:
•Bless your naive heart, eh? Ottawa just undercut our joint 100% tariffs on Chinese EVs by slashing theirs to 6.1%, greenlighting 49,000 regimemade imports yearly for a shiny new "strategic partnership" boosting trade 50% with Beijing; all for cheap canola. 🤦‍♀️
•Happily whitewashing the CCP's grotesque human rights violations against its own people: Uyghur genocide in concentration camps, forced organ harvesting, Hong Kong's crushed freedoms, and a dystopian social-credit surveillance state enslaving millions.
•Same "ally" that slow-walked Chinese election meddling, Huawei infiltration, and the Two Michaels hostage farce.
When you're bending over for Communist human-rights abusers instead of your actual partners, Washington stops pretending your lectures matter.
Trust: revoked. Not sorry.
Why the US Doesn't GAF What the UK Thinks:
•Bless your collapsing little island, mate? Pathetic and weak: army recruitment disaster with the force shrinking below 72,000 troops, endless budget cuts, and the country on the brink of social and economic collapse.
•Happily committing grotesque human rights violations against its own people: flooding the nation with Middle Eastern migrants bringing grooming gangs, stabbings and chaos that harm native citizens; arresting Brits for Facebook posts criticizing the invasion; and crushing them with unaffordable energy bills, taxes, and housing that destroy working families.
•Same pathetic “ally” that’s slashed its military to irrelevance and relies entirely on America for any real defense.
đź’«When you're this feeble, self-destructive, and abusing your own people, Washington stops pretending your lectures matter.
Trust: revoked. Cheerio!Why Securing the Strait of Hormuz and Stopping Iran Benefits the World:
•Oh bless your de-escalation fantasy, snowflakes? Iran is already attacking tankers and trying to shut the strait that pumps 20 million barrels of oil every single day. That's 20% of the planet’s entire supply. Let them win and watch global prices triple, factories die, and every economy from Berlin to Beijing spiral into recession.
•Happily ending Iran's grotesque economic terrorism on the whole world. They're mining shipping lanes, arming proxies to blow up trade, and using nuclear blackmail to hold billions hostage. The 2026 chaos proves they’ll actually do it because they already are. Do you have f**** eyes???
•Same pathetic rogue regime that thinks one narrow choke point gives it veto power over civilization. Secure the strait and you cut off their balls. Cheap energy flows again, inflation drops, and the weak stop freezing in the dark.
•Ending the horrific human rights abuses against women, children and animals. Sorry, but your sad little protests don't stop fanatics who believe it's their God-given right to torture others. They laugh and thank you for spreading their terrorist propaganda grab the next 9yr old child bride and kick another puppy. Psychopaths who think they have a divine mission will only stop when you stop them.
In summary:
The United States doesn't actually need you cowards, and if we have to go it alone to rescue 90 million people from horror, secure global energy, and destroy the terrorists holding the world hostage, then so be it.
The UK and Canada are largely irrelevant on the world stage anyway and we all know it. 🤣
You had your chance, and we won't forget. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
P.S. Total defense spending (the real military muscle that actually makes NATO work) is about $1.59 trillion. US alone does $980 billion, which is 62% of the entire alliance. The other 31 countries (Europe + Canada) scrape together the remaining 38%. US spends more than all the rest combined.
If we leave NATO you're F*****,
XOXO

Trump rightly wants the US out of NATO.
Thanks to our own woke, “Atlanticist” DC Deep-state, before Trump, we stupidly conducted the foreign policy (and social policy) that London and Davos had in mind for us.
Leave NATO.
Leave the UN.
Work within the Western Hemisphere to build widespread prosperity without the global headaches.
Leave NATO. - Agreed. It’s not 1950 anymore. There is no longer any reason for our participation.
Leave the UN. - I’d stay in, just to keep our veto power. Because otherwise, what’s left of the UN would be up to all sorts of mischief.
Now comes the tough part. No more Uncle Sugar. There are 193 member nations in the UN. So we contribute 1/193 towards the budget.
If the UN bureaucrats don’t like that, too bad. Cut down on all the wasteful spending, guys.
If Argentina decided next week to take the Falkland Islands, could the UK mount any kind of effort to prevent Argentina ??
If the UK called for help from the US, I wonder if Trump would just hang up on Starmer or lecture him on how being an ally is a two-way street.
Yep, out of anything that people who hate us run. Not one more wooden nickel to any of them. They can leave in the general direction of hell.
As I say to my pesky cat: “Scoot, scoot”.
Get the USA out of NATO. It has become an entity whose mission changed. The USA must exit NATO and the UN now!!
The British Caliphate is more allied with our enemies.
Canada is so completely taken over by the Communist Chinese, they should rename their country Chinadia.
That’s the sad truth.
YES
President Trump is doing his dead level best, but he is only one man and is being fought tooth and toenail by: The Department of Education including Presidents, Deans, and faculty, etal, the members of the mail stream media, fools and idiots, and last but not least members of Congress of both Political Parties.
It does my heart good to see the comments here.
People now can see that the old WWII allies do not exist anymore.
Not one single American dollar spent in their defense.
Not one single American soldier to risk anything for such ingrates.
If they need something they can buy it full retail price.
I agree - out of both.
But our gdp is $32 trillion. We pay 5% of that - $1.6 trillion as NATO dues.
I would guess a big chunk of that comes back to our defense industry.
Sort of an ngo thing/sarc
i sometimes cringe listening to PDJT’s blunt speaking style but let’s face it, this is a part of why USA voted for him
as for what he says here, he’s right on.
UK appears to be thoroughly sold out by its ruling elite and probably won’t recover (too many enemies already in the country)
Canada? a most lovely country with so many wonderful people....being led astray...it is sad. we hope for Canada
Get the UN out of the U.S.and take their spies/envoys with them. Switzerland can have them. The Muslim Mayor will have plenty of space to place the homeless. Zohran and the Governor will have no choice but to raises taxes even more to replace the huge budget hit.
I’ll buy the popcorn for that show.
Open the door to Alberta in the US and the Falklands to Argentina and all will be even.
