I too was encouraged when hearing Trump setting aside polite diplomacy and telling those allied suckers to start paying up.A Modest Scriblerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07698092153994590787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3360697570873499457.post-24887930125248078872017-05-31T09:12:19.197-07:002017-05-31T09:12:19.197-07:00Have to laugh at the left these days: For YEARS, t...Have to laugh at the left these days: For YEARS, they complained about the US paying the bill for NATO, arguing our "allies" need to do more militarily and financially so we won't have to, saying our continued military presence in Germany (in particular) was a waste of money. Last week, Trump tells Merkel the EXACT SAME THING. What does the left do? Whines about how Trump is "alienating our historic allies".... This guy will be criticized no matter what he does. As for NATO, we have no need to pour billions we into the German economy for the privilege of putting our forces there. The cold war is over - time to revamp the strategy.

This essay was not so much about Trump as the previous administrations over the last three decades. As for Trump, I'll wait for the results to match the rhetoric.A Modest Scriblerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07698092153994590787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3360697570873499457.post-41975191880392375642017-05-31T06:48:01.145-07:002017-05-31T06:48:01.145-07:00Your wrong Scribe.
