Companies in defense like Boeing that make mistakes in production need to increase their business.
So fear of Russia is peddled as well as provocation of Russia as was the case since 1997 when Bill Clinton set course with NATO’s eastward expansion.
The more NATO spends on defense the more $$$$ US defense contractors will pocket.
Trump called on them to spend more so I guess he did his part.
The fear of Putin is used as an additional prod.
“The fear of Putin is used as an additional prod.”

Who would fear Putin if he wasn’t attacking and annexing sovereign countries?
Imagine, if America suddenly annexed the UK, Italy, Sweden or Spain... don’t you think that all of Europe would be fearful of America if it did such a crazy thing?
Russia illegally annexed parts of Ukraine (a true deeply Western European country) which capital Kiev was actually founded by the the Swedish Vikings in 882 (so know you know why so many Ukrainian women are blondes... interesting fact).
Russia invaded Ukraine even though it had previously officially recognized all of Ukraine’s sovereign borders (which includes Crimea).
Sweden and Finland would NEVER have entered NATO if it wasn’t for Putin’s spectacular miscalculation when he decided to rape Ukraine’ borders with 400.000 invading troops.
Ukrainians, Trump, and most common sense people want BORDERS respected.
Putin has decided all by himself to become a prod to put fear in the West.
