Pres. Trump pushes his own brand of global politics at NATO While this fourth grade Trump is sitting down with European leaders at the NATO summit, he continues to show his grade school ignorance about foreign policy, along with the fact that he has no understanding of basic math, GDP, or geographical differences. He is oblivious to the fact, that our economy is five times larger than Germany. Geographically as well, Germany is much smaller than the U.S. So why would Germany pay an amount comparable to the U.S.? Germany is not going to pay over $700 billion dollars for national defense as we do. Trump is embarrassing himself and our country by not understanding apples for apples. He uses fourth grade logic, and his supporters will eat it up at the end of the day, looking more fourth grade than he is. What a disaster Trump has been.
