      ~~I’m pretty sure withdrawing from treaties is something the legislature is supposed to do~~ (Nope: somehow that’s something they never properly clarified and is therefore yet another power arrogated by the presidency until the inevitable supreme court case; there is a law to specifically forbid him to withdraw from NATO, but we all know how much Trump cares about the law or how much the USA cares about enforcing its laws on its own leadership), but I guess the USA will let him do it anyway. He’s already started a global trade war and then an actual war on a whim, after all.

      This would absolutely destroy USA economic hegemony too, by the way, as none of the USA’s ex-allies (NATO or otherwise) would have any incentive to keep the current USA-centric system going if it’s just going to bankroll the USA’s war on everyone else. Good luck paying for that oversized military budget when the dollar goes.

      I see that your idiot in chief has mentioned his boss Putin in this interview. An absolute disgrace to the office he squats in.

      What the everloving fuck is happening with this fucked up country, and why the fuck are no one seemingly doing anything about it.

      I should know better by now, but seeing a democracy transition into autocracy with such ease keeps amazing me every day.

      The US has forgotten what NATO truly is, a defence alliance. NATO doesn’t enter wars started by the US. Had the US been attacked on the other hand, NATO would join. In fact, the only time article 5 was invoked was after 9/11 with NATO backing the US in Afghanistan. It’s a disgrace to see them treat the history of this alliance like it means nothing to them, and like NATO has done nothing for them. Trump and his administration are traitors.

      He talks like he has said all this gibberish before. He just wants to manipulate the stock markets and resources supplies to make him and buddies rich.

      Leave NATO and remove all your forces from our land.

      Sir this is the 56th time you threatened to leave / threatened NATO about *something*, at some point it just becomes white noise.

      This is either a blatant appeal to try to win back his base or applying pressure on European countries that weren’t interested in following Trump’s Iran adventure, and I think at this point most europeans are done with his shtick.

      Imagine being the type of weasel still defending anything this idiot is saying and doing. Imagine being so deep into the cult that you’re just not willing to criticise any of this madness.

      As a Brit, I’m happy to let the US go and hopefully we can form a stronger alliance with Europe. We don’t need the constant uncertainty and embarrassment that comes from being associated with the US at the moment.

      didn’t they pass a law a while back specifically so he couldnt‘ do that himself.

      The 2024 NDAA specifically prohibits the President from doing that.

      Makes sense. He believes the White House is his personal mansion to destroy as he pleases, he thinks NATO is his personal army that is supposed to help him play Risk. Well screw you.

      I’ll just leave this here:

      >The Suez Crisis,[a] also known as the second Arab–Israeli war,[8][9][10] the Tripartite Aggression[b] in the Arab world[11] and the Sinai War[c] in Israel,[d] was a British–French–Israeli invasion of Egypt in 1956. Israel invaded on 29 October, with the primary objective of re-opening the Straits of Tiran and the Gulf of Aqaba as the recent tightening of the eight-year-long Egyptian blockade further prevented Israeli passage.[12] After issuing a joint ultimatum for a ceasefire, the United Kingdom and France joined the Israelis on 31 October, seeking to depose Egyptian president Gamal Abdel Nasser and regain control of the Suez Canal, which Nasser had nationalised earlier in the year.

      >Shortly after the invasion began, the three countries came under heavy political pressure from both the United States and the Soviet Union, as well as from the United Nations, eventually prompting their withdrawal from Egypt.

      >President Dwight D. Eisenhower strongly opposed the 1956 British and French military intervention in Suez, telling Prime Minister Anthony Eden that the action was a mistake that would destroy Western standing in the Middle East. He warned that the US would not support them, famously saying they should be left to „boil in their own oil“ and threatened severe financial sanctions

      >Eisenhower argued that the Western alliance could not apply „one code of international conduct for those who oppose us—and another for our friends“. He felt that justifying an act of aggression simply because it was committed by allies (Britain and France) against a „weak“ nation (Egypt) would shatter the postwar structure and destroy the rule of law.

      One man – ONE FUCKING MAN – cannot be allowed to destroy the US, Europe, the Middle East, South America and generally the whole world.

      Get a fucking grip America. Show some of these checks and balances you’re so proud of.
