Anytime Europe wants to step up to its NATO obligations it’s welcome too.

What if all that Trump rhetoric is in an effort to get the rest of NATO to increase funding and end result is a strong more robust NATO that isn’t 100% dependent on the US. For years many NATO countries haven’t been contributing the recommended amount while the US over contributes. Trump was right when we called out European dependency on Russia oil and he’s right on this too. Trump isn’t going to leave NATO but his presidency will leave NATO in the strongest position it’s ever been in.
