"Don't you recall, Mike, early in the Trump years when all the never-Trumpers, Hillary Dems, & left wing media were all running around complaining about how brash and rude they thought Trump was when it came to our NATO allies and the fact that many of our allies had not, for years if not decades, been paying even the amount they agreed to into NATO so it has been the U.S. that has been over-paying our agreed to amount because of the shortfall?"
No I don't. No country pays anything "into NATO", and the US doesn't make up a shortfall that doesn't exist. That's a lie that Trump kept repeating until people started believing it.
That's not how NATO works. Every country in NATO is supposed to spend a set percentage of their GDP for the own defense. |
