They have bad ass tanks and nukes. I’d say that is a realistic threat.

Well, come to think of it, there is no threat from the Warsaw Pact anymore. It might be a good time to dissolve NATO, sign a defense treaty with the UK, and tell the rest of the EU to defend itself.

NATO should have disbanded when the USSR collapsed.

NATO putting the pinch on Russia by expanding along their European border had a lot to do with turning Russia hard line again.

I just finished reading a Wapo transcript where Trump explicitly says not to dump NATO.

So what is this article’s source for its claim that Trump wants to dump NATO?

Since it is apparent Europe is now EuArabia let them sort out their own problems at their own dime.

And if he had events over Easter weekend, Jeff Roe would be accusing Trump of not being a Christian.

NATO is a just one more siphon hooked up to the American taxpayer to pay for the EU’S protection. The UN needs to be pushed into the east river also

Trump didn’t say dump NATO. If he did I would criticize him for it.

As long as Turkey is a member, Islam will have veto power over NATO.

The only nations that ever stand with us are Australia, Canada and the UK. I don’t need or want any of the rest of Europe.

NATO is useless to us. Dump it.

The UN too.

Stockman has evidently failed math. Last year, the US Govt spent $1.6 Trillion on Social Security and Healthcare (neither mentioned in the Constitution).

We spent $0.6 Trillion on Defense (mentioned in the US Constitution.

The problem is an out of control welfare state, not alliances that have served us well by preventing another World War.

There are legitimate discussions to have on how well DOD spends money (not well at all IMHO), but to truly affect government spending and the debt, we must at some point wean the general public off the government teat.

Run 50,000 Brits thru Camp Pendleton infantry training and send them home with an M-16, a thousand rounds of ammo and a kick-ass attitude. You won’t need NATO in the UK, and bed-wetting leadership will crawl under a rock and the Mooslims will be hanging from lampposts.
