    Well, nato really doesnt do anything but talk anyways.

    I agree though. There is no need for US troops outside of our embassy anywhere in the world thats not US territory.

    No more troops (or money) in Japan, S. Korea, Europe, or Africa.

    Groovy, let's pull all the way out of NATO then. Say by the way, about all those bills they owe on Nato..... we're gonna need that money now.

    We live in an age where a caucasian male with blue eyes from New Orleans can now identify as a female Filipino. So if Germany doesn't recognize the U.S. as a superpower, we shouldn't be surprised.

    Is Herr Gabriel suggesting Germany, and Europe in general, is going to finally start to shoulder the load of protecting themselves from the East? I doubt it.

    Well Russia would have go through some other nations first. That being said, how pathetic can Republicans be, to suggest we let our allies be overrun, which highlights their ignorance of foreign policy !!!!!!

    World Leaders take their Job seriously.

    When a fellow Leader ( the most powerful Leader of the free world ) haphazardly changes the course of the world and in doing so, destabilizes fragile peace it's becomes apparent you can't rely on him.

    All for a campaign promise that the candidate at the time himself thought he did not have a chance in hell of winning.

    It's all a game to Trump.............

    He's not up to the job......

    Yes, you absolutely continue to spend money even if they dont "appreciate" your current leader because doing so protects your interests and the interests of your allies.

    we really don't have reason to protect them anymore but we've been paying money to protect people that hate us (europe) for like 60+ years now it's not going to stop any time soon.

    Countries under threat love us. We used to be Western Europe's big brother, so they all love love loved us. Can't find any folks in (what used to be) West Germany who didn't love America 50 years ago.

    But now the Cold War is over. The USSR is no longer a threat on Western Europe's doorstep, so they don't need us anymore. However, you see the new countries on Russia's front line, such as Poland, that loves us.

    Oh man. :(

    The only bright spot in this whole witch hunt was that if Trump went and Pence couldn't serve, Pickle would become our first kitty president. :(

    Way to bring the thread down, Labour. :boo:

    But yeah - Germany.

    What a joke.

    With respect, you appear to know as little about NATO funding as does your orange Beloved Leader.

    It is perhaps preferable to be sure of one's facts before launching into a criticism of another nation. And there is no need for thanks - I am glad to be of service. 8)
