you just parrot talking points without even knowing what the mean?
Which NATO members are now "paying their fair share" that was not doing so in Jan of 2017?
Who are they paying their fair share to?
Is that any different than the Trump foundation?
What the NATO nations agreed to is that they will put the same % of their GDP into their military that we do, so that the USA does not have to carry the entire burden of defending the NATO nations. If you would listen to something other than CNN you might understand some of this.
?
None of NATO has agreed to put as much of their GDP in to defense as we do, where do you get these lies?
What they agreed to do was put 2% of their GDP in to their defense, and they agreed to do so years before Trump even decided to run for president. As of this year 2 NATO counties have meet this goal.
So tell me, what has Trump accomplished in this area?
Also, will the US have a corresponding cut in defense spending as NATO spending goes up?

the point is that those countries never lived up to that commitment until Trump called them on it and threatened to remove our bases from their countries if they didn't step up.
They had not even hit the deadline for doing so yet. Trump changed nothing, Trump took credit for an agreement made in 2014, and you believed him and kissed his ass for being so amazing.
Yes, I think eventually we can reduce defense spending, once our military is brought up to speed to overcome any and all threats from China and Russia which are spending huge sums of money on their military. China has the largest military in the world right now.
Russia spends less than a tenth of what we spend on defense, how are they so amazing spending less on their entire military than we did on a single aircraft system?
China spends less than 1/3 if what we do, how is that huge spending?
All you do is parrot talking points, you have no actual knowledge
