We can only hope. NATO should have been dissolved when the Warsaw Pact dissolved with the fall of the Soviet Union.

NATO was essentially welfare for the European nations and it earned the USA no gratitude. That military welfare permitted them to develop their unsupportable welfare states.

The Europeans have always had contempt for the American ‘cowboys’ despite the fact that we literally saved them in three major conflicts, the world wars and the cold war. We bore the cost and the brunt of it and again it earned us no gratitude.

One recurring feature of European politics is treachery against each other as well as we Americans. Despite Woodrow Wilson being a contemptible fool his 14 points after World War I were reasonable and which the The British and French completely ignored and which guaranteed the second world war.

Speaking of European treachery, the British MI5/MI6 were part of the Russia dossier hoax. Let them pay for their own defense and not being able to call on big brother to come riding to the rescue again.

It made Europe weak due to their massive welfare states and that's why they opened their borders to immigrants (many of them are Islamic).

We should have left NATO after 1991 after the collapse of the Soviet Union.

Well, we should leave now so the Europeans will have to learn how to stand on their own.

The US should have told France, Germany, and England to make peace when they asked us to join in WW 1. We should NEVER have kept sending arms to the Brits, they are as much a source of trouble as any other nation. They paid NO PRICE for their meddling in the world with their Empire. We bailed them out every time they faltered. The best you can say for them is???? I can’t think of anything big they ever did for us.
