Twisted logic.
If Trump wanted to be fair he wouldnt be redistributing any tax payer money to foreign governments. Fair would be letting us keep our money.
You want to support the defense of the Ukraine border, buy a stamp and send a check.

Is there any reason to take anything he says as what he means?

Trump threatens to quit NATO: White House official - France 24
Yep and he should. They didn't abide by their agreement, hence broke the contract. Unlike previous presidents, who let American be taken advantage of Trump is demanding they what they agreed to do.

Obviously you'd rather the American tax payer keep paying their share

NATO should pay their fair share. There's no reason the US should shoulder the burden of that. The Euros know they're bending us over and really don't give a damn about the US except for our money.

It's about time someone stood up for this country rather than give milquetoast apologies for it.

If the liberals had their way they would give away the farm to every foriegn government and every illegal that walked over the border while Americans rotted in the streets.

You obviously don't understand negotiations. Oh and not knowing what to expect is part of it.

The more he stands up for Americans the more I like it.

Liberals are having a fit, they obviously think the US, American worker should shoulder the majority of the burden in their global economy.

But what will they do now, that the PUTRID pile of EXCREMENT is being his usual insulting self at the Nato Summit?
Good example of our system working! As for the piece of s, we can only hope it is indicted and impeached or we must wait until leadership returns to the White House in 2020.

And does anyone here believe that NATO countries should not be spending 2% of GDP on their own defense, as required by the NATO treaty, and which only the UK, Greece and Estonia are currently doing?
Why are Republicans completely silent about the billions we send Israel?

I think Trump is trying to blow up NATO, then will move to WTO and by the time he's done, the U.S. will be an isolationist country.

The cartoons will depict Trump walking away with the White House in the background reduced to burning rubble.

The President of the United States sets foreign policy. The Senate has no say unless we are entering into a treaty.
