The European Union this week tried to muzzle a US presidential candidate by threatening the CEO of an American corporation. It’s time to re-evaluate our relationship with NATO.​

The American people can’t pretend the European Union’s attempt to extort Elon Musk on Monday — threatening to punish him unless he canceled his planned interview with President Donald Trump on X — didn’t threaten to fundamentally change our relationship with longstanding European allies.
Fully 22 of the 27 countries that belong to the European Union also belong to NATO, meaning that they benefit from the U.S. security umbrella and from our obligation under Article 5 of the North Atlantic Treaty to defend them if they’re attacked.

This works out well for Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, and Spain.

It’s sometimes less of a good deal for the United States, which has long shouldered a disproportionate share of Europe’s security burden.

And there is the rub. Trump was demanding these NATO countries pay their fair share, something the Biden administration refuses to do, and these NATO countries no problem trying to alter democracy in the US to achieve their ends, the same countries that lie about supporting democracy.

Let NATO take care of Europe, and America can take care of Americans. Keep our money here where it belongs. We can't afford to be the world's babysitter.

Wrong! Disband NATO, reform (or disband) the EU, and send all the Americans home to fuck themselves.

If you follow my advice (just above) then you and I will both be satisfied.

Ps. The UN should also be disband.

And send our money back home with them. FUNATO. We don't care what you do with the EU. That's between you and the EU.

You haven't spent any money in my country and you owe rent to those countries that have. Anyway, nevermind money, just be happy we don't shoot you.

 

[The Irish Ram]

Never mind the money is what you need to do. Start with USAID to Russia. Then just span out to the rest of the money suckers. Rent my ass.

USAID in Russia | Fact Sheet | U.S. Agency for International Development

Over the past two decades, USAID has provided assistance that has helped the Russian people improve public health and combat infectious diseases, protect the environment, develop a stronger civil society, and modernize their economy. As Russia has grown into a middle income country, the nature...

Now if they'd just toss our money back! You know, the billions and billions we hand out yearly. See any of the names you think we have been "tossed out" of?

It's more like hand out than tossed out. You all need to start standing on your own two wobbly feet and forget about the US/ATM.

Quit whining and just go. You people are such sore losers.

It's the other way around. You're over here on your knees begging us to let you stay. And now you're begging for money. It's our money, Bonzo, not yours.

 

[The Irish Ram]

Hardly.

Hardly.

It's our money and you want it. You are dead-beat tenants

 

[The Irish Ram]

It's our money and you beg us every year for more. You are weak.

If it's in our pockets then it's ours. It's called "possession", Bonzo Boy.

You are weak.

If you shook hands and don't like the deal you got then it's you who is weak.

We aren't shaking your hand we are trying to get it back in your pocket instead of ours, Leech.

They had to bribe Obama with a Nobel Peace Prize so he would take out Gaddafi for them.

So sad.

Your reading comprehension sucks, Bonzo. You don't like the deal you got but you shook hands to get it. It's you who's complaining, not the NATO member states.
