Let history so note:

1) NATO members’ defense spending started increasing under Obama;

2) Trump saying “dues” demonstrates he has no idea WTF he’s saying;

3) Trump wanted to withdraw from NATO;

The events of the past week makes it clear why Donald Trump worked tirelessly to undermine NATO. When supported by the United States, the organization is the greatest bulwark against Putin’s tyranny just as it was against Soviet tyranny.

“I wanted to hamstring NATO when I was president. I tried extorting political favors from Zelensky before I would give Ukraine military aid. Anyway: I now want you to know that NATO wouldn’t exist without me and I always looked after Ukraine’s national security.” – Trump pic.twitter.com/w12eBtpI22

“If [Putin] wants to kill himself, he doesn’t need to use nuclear arsenal. He has to do what the guy in Berlin did in a bunker in May 1945.”
