Trump spent months calling NATO obsolete.
Threatening Canada with the 51st state. Slapping tariffs on allies.
Demanding Europe pay up or lose protection.
Insulting world leaders to their faces.
Abandoning Ukraine.
Calling Germany weak and France irrelevant.
Now he needs them.
France: no.
Germany: no.
Norway: no.
Canada: never.
Japan: officially no.
Switzerland: airspace closed.
You don’t spend a year burning every bridge and then call for backup when the building is on fire.
$21 billion spent. 14 Americans dead. Oil at $102. The Strait mined. Taiwan surrounded. Baghdad evacuated. NATO threatened with a “very bad future.”
The allies didn’t abandon America.
America spent a year telling them to leave.
They listened.
Never stop connecting the dots.
What you’re supposed to do when you don’t like a thing is change it. If you can’t change it, change the way you think about it. Don’t complain.
― Maya Angelou
A friend sent me this...but complaining is something I do very well so I don't want to stop!
