Why are we subsidizing NATO? Why aren’t they paying their fair share?
Their protectionist, Eurocentric attitude towards trade on the one hand, while at the same time demanding military protection from America. Time to end this

Europe cannot have it both ways. Why aren’t we demanding that our allies pay their fair share?

Russia trolls pushing this line of attacking the stability of NATO are going to be sad when it actually works and NATO countries start spending more on defense.
They are are they not?
US pays a mere 15% to the total annual budget of NATO, tied with Germany.
Have a look how the budget is spread, it’s hardly unfair.

Why have our employees in Washington spent the last forty years cutting taxes for trust fund babies like Trump and Musk?
This dude is such an epic piece of shit.
Do you think cutting NATO will increase any benefits for USA?
You’ll have to increase defence spending to make up the shortfall from the security of NATO. You think Americas gonna be happy with new blind spots in their radar now information isn’t being shared?
Certainly not, they’ll have to work harder.
Also, most pay their fair share: *Out of the 31 Nato members, 23 are expected to meet Nato’s guideline of spending 2% of their gross domestic product (GDP) on defence.*
