Trump says will consider leaving NATO if allies didn't 'pay bills’
The US President-elect details sweeping changes he’ll carry out on day one and beyond involving tariffs, mass deportation, and NATO doubts.
US President-elect Donald Trump reiterated his campaign promises to impose trade tariffs and carry out mass deportations on Sunday, while also hinting at the possibility of withdrawing from NATO.
In his first major televised interview, six weeks before taking office, Trump said he would "absolutely" consider leaving NATO if allies didn't "pay their bills."
"They have to pay their bills," Trump told NBC's "Meet the Press," saying he would "absolutely" consider taking the United States out of the alliance unless members are "treating us fairly."
He also suggested that US backing for Ukraine would be reduced, stating he would "probably" limit funds to Kiev, which the United States has been steadfastly backing since the war in Ukraine broke out.
"Possibly. Yeah, probably, sure," he told the US news outlet.
They have to pay their bills," Trump told NBC's "Meet the Press," saying he would "absolutely" not consider ever paying his own bills
Its ALWAYS projection with trump.
“Nobody knows” = I dont know.
“Everybody is saying” = I am saying.
Also admitted in public during a nationally-televised debate that he doesn't pay taxes.
we're still at the "threatening to leave you" stage of the abuse and not the "don't make me hurt you" stage?
The USA loves a war. It would be interesting to see if they’d actually pass up the oppurtunity for some involvement.
Good, it was a nazi organization then and it's a nazi organization now. Of course, that's why this nazi will never actually do it.
Oh gosh a group of highly intellectual people with a swastika flag, their entire country must be just like them
I remember the orange man talking about it.
NATO members agreed to reach the 2% military spending goal by 2032.
Orange man saying that NATO members "are not paying their bills" is complete BS because there was no agreement to get to 2% before 2032. The invasion of Ukraine has put a lot more pressure on NATO countries, and many have already increased their budget beyond 2% accordingly. At the moment there are only 8 countries still under 2%. Including the 2 smaller countries; Belgium and Luxembourg. And funnily enough Canada too.
Fuck the orange man.
NATO should be dissolved regardless.
