Europe must be more "self-reliant," but Israel must not?

DJT, STFU.

Yeah, but the US is threatening to leave Nato if Europe doesn’t buy its weapons. Mafia POS behavior right there.

It’s cool how you let Trump write your headlines.

Terrible headline. No one is "paying up." They are spending money on developing their military capability. STOP USING trump's FRAMING.

Well, if Trump is hellbent on turning the neverending Middle East sh*tshow international and becoming allies with Putin and Xi (to get his properties built there and his MAGA crap manufactured there) then I guess it worked.

NATO is ramping up their percentages due to the fear of Trumpism, and not due to the respect of it.

Well attacking everything and everyone in worlds and reality kind of has that effect on normal ppl, the question is really what Trump wins on it? You could imagine he has the stocks in the biggest warfactories in the world and not a tiny hotel group that will die if Iran uses terrorism against US. 🤷‍♀️
