      Donald Trump’s anger at NATO allies for refusing to join the war against Iran has so far achieved one thing: uniting them against him.

      In private, over intimate dinners, and on the sidelines of meetings in Brussels and elsewhere, European leaders and officials are discussing how to handle the U.S. president’s threats to quit NATO and what they would do if he followed through.

      They now share the grim view that Trump’s increasingly angry attacks on Britain, Spain, France and others confirm a fundamental breach in the transatlantic alliance. And while they aren’t yet sure what the final answer should be, some countries are already looking to expand their defense and security arrangements to work around a broken NATO.

      Trump has damaged and continues to damage US NATO and US EU relations. The main country winning here is Russia.

      The sad thing is that Russia wants to bring back Soviet Union lines back.

      Ironic that it’ll be the US that unifies the rest of the Western world, without the US

      DJT unites everyone by playing the villain.

      That’s what you’d expect from a FIFA Peace Prize winner.

      People should consider that Trump cannot legally make a deal with Iran over Hormuz that Iran would find remotely acceptable so we’re in this mess long term

      Congressional sanctions cannot be lifted by Presidents *not even by Trump* – and unless they are lifted no other country can do business with Iran lest they in turn face US sanctions.

      All Presidents can do by law is temporarily suspend sanctions, which will never be acceptable to Iran in a deal. Iran would want permanent sanctions relief to allow long term investment etc.

      Only Congress can lift sanctions permanently not US Presidents, and Congress is dominated by AIPAC and the proIsraeli lobby who vehemently oppose improved US-Iran relations (AIPAC spent $billions to oppose nuclear deal; Netanyahu took personal credit for getting Trump to tear up the deal.)

      So even if Trump wanted to make a deal with Iran to open the strait, he can’t.
