    Yea… as if they don’t enjoy their strategic advantage to have bases and drone relays in all their “befriended” countries. Their global power relies in the ability to project military power in a fast manner.

    Good luck doing that without strategic bases and pre distributed resources and local enablers.

    Time for European army. Or at least Army of willing, which can be done without lengthy treaty change process, or dealing on something smaller by all EU members.

      Most of us who didn’t vote for the mentally deranged orangutan saw this coming from a mile away.

    This is a Russian op to ensure that when Russia attacks NATO members, the USA won’t be beholden to support the allies and will sit on their hands and watch (along with refusing aid) also they won’t have to send troops

    Plus the US will be allowed to commit war crimes and can limit or stiffle democracy and Civil liberties without having to answer to anyone.

    One of the requirements in NATO is that they must is uphold democracy and tolerate diversity

    The atrocities against American citizens is coming. Likely after the midterm elections next year if the outcome doesn’t go the GOPs way

      Only if done slowly like step-by-step over the next 10 years.

      The US provide some capabilities to NATO which the others cannot substitute immediately.

        When the push comes to shove Trump’s USA will do jack shit to provide anything but insult added to injury.
