Lyin Ted.
Trump did not say that USA should exit NATO. Trump said NATO should PAY their fair share for US interventions and equipment. No more freebies.
If we don’t give the gimme dats here and abroad what they demand, apparently they feel justified in killing. Cruz is wrong on NATO. We should not pay everyone’s way.
Those who claim Cruz is for small government might want to explain how we can continue to support the world and nation build unless we keep big government.
Any government that Trump supports would benefit the American people for a change. Novel idea in the world today where Americans are expected to give til it destroys us.
“Trump said NATO should PAY their fair share for US interventions and equipment. No more freebies.”
I agree with that, and also feel that it is about time the rest of the free world stops trashing the US and starts thanking the US. It’s way past time to stop the ridiculous rhetoric about the US being the bully of the world. We are just over 70 years from when US soldiers died on European soil, and crashed the gates of the concentration camps to free the survivors, but we are labeled as the great evil in the world by many on the left - including those in our own nation. Let them think about what the world could potentially look like if there were no free US there to defend freedom.
Trump has always said that our allies are not pulling their weight. This is not breaking news. It’s in his standard stump speech. Ridiculous attack by Lyin Ted.
Exactly
And if they don't? Then what?
The concept of an "alliance" is foreign to Trump. To him it's all dollars and cents. It's a deal that he has to be the winner of. If Estonia can't pay for U.S. troops to come help them then screw 'em. If Japan won't pay more for our assistance then we won't be there if they need us. We love Israel but unless they start paying more for us to defend them then...
If Donald Trump had been president in 1940 the British would have gone down to defeat because he would never have agreed to Lend/Lease and we would never have liberated France in 1944 unless De Gaulle came up with the cash first.
