I wasn't seriously contemplating attacking the *president* with an impromptu bludgeon.Bet ya you’ll get you’re ass beat tough guy by SS.dOnald tRump wouldn't recognize a fact if I put one in a sock and beat him with it.Pres. Trump castigates European leader with facts.AP FACT CHECK: Trump presses falsehoods about NATO, Germany
Not sure why I bother, as most Trumpies have been conditioned to dismiss any facts contrary to their fantasy world beliefs.
Trump is an epic failure and embarrassment, the sooner you see that the better.
TRUMP: “Frankly, many countries owe us a tremendous amount of money for many years back, where they’re delinquent, as far as I’m concerned, because the United States has had to pay for them. So if you go back 10 or 20 years, you’ll just add it all up. It’s massive amounts of money is owed.” — comments at meeting with NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg. In a tweet Tuesday, he said: “Will they reimburse the U.S.?”
THE FACTS: There is no such debt to the U.S. or to NATO. Therefore, no delinquency or question of reimbursement.
He is referring to how much each NATO country spends on its own defense and pressing them to spend more. Doing so would relieve some pressure on U.S. military spending. But there are no IOUs to collect from past years.
TRUMP: “Germany is a captive of Russia because they supply (energy). They got rid of their coal plants. They got rid of their nuclear. They’re getting so much of the oil and gas from Russia. I think it’s something that NATO has to look at.”
THE FACTS: He’s wrong about coal-fired and nuclear energy and overstated Germany’s reliance on Russian natural gas. In 2017, Germany got more than one-third of its energy for electricity from coal and nearly 12 percent from nuclear plants. One-third came from renewable energy. Only 13 percent came from natural gas, with Russia as the major supplier.
Trump was objecting to Germany’s acceptance of a new pipeline project that will bring more natural gas from Russia.
Germany plans to retire nuclear plants by 2022 and intends to reduce its reliance on coal. But Germany has not “got rid” of either.

Liberals become unhinged with grief. .......
Nope, that was under obummer.
"Despite Mr Trump's warnings about the level of US financial commitment to Nato, the US is planning to increase the budget for this by 40% in 2018, to $4.7bn, up from $789m in 2016 under President Obama."
What does the US contribute to Nato?
Nope, that was under obummer.

This is why Trump LOVES the poorly educated......
This fucking idiot "thinks" we are spending $789 Billion on NATO
(Yawn) Boy is the left’s criticism of Trump getting tedious and boring. It’s like children throwing temper tantrums. According to them there is nothing – ABSOULTELY NOTHING – that Trump can do even remotely right. Talk about mindless obstructionism. But then, since the left has no real policy suggestions, I guess all they can do is fall on the floor, kick their feet, and scream and whine.
You know what gets me? There should be bipartisan outrage over the US spending 650 billion per year to protect these other nations.
Tell congress to stop spending more on our military than any other country in the world
Start by getting out of NATO.
NATO has nothing to do with our military spending we dont pay them ...
DDDUUUUUHHHHH
The billions to NATO are part of the defense budget according to the charts I'm reading. Listed as military spending.
Go ahead and argue with Forbes.
"The following infographic provides a breakdown of military spending across the alliance, with only five of them meeting the 2 percent goal: Estonia, Greece, Poland, the United Kingdom and the United States. U.S. defense expenditure in 2017 came to just under 686 billion, equating to 3.6 percent of GDP."

the USA contributes is 4.7 BILLION. I understand that you have a hard time reading for comprehension, most progressives are spectacularly stupid, after all, but try...
Take THAT up with your fellow moron in post #84.....
That's not %40, that would be more like %400.About 0.6 billion.NATO doesnt owe Trump or the US jackshit and never will.
I brought this up when he first started spreading his NATO bullshit ... HIS DRONES IGNORED IT THEN JUST LIKE THEY IGNORE IT NOW,

What is the yearly "contribution" of the USA to NATO?
How much does the United States contribute to the UN?
That's about %20 of what we give Israel BTW.
Nope, that was under obummer.

WTF you talkin' 'bout Willis?Why do liberals stand in solidarity with foreign leaders and brutal dictators, while refusing to support their own president? ....

Of course you weren't, you're a Beta Male. The only thing you beat is your pud.
Members of the alliance are not in arrears in their military spending. They are not in debt to the United States, or failing to meet a current standard, and Washington is not trying to collect anything, despite the president’s contention that they “owe massive amounts of money.” They merely committed in 2014 to work toward the goal of 2 percent of GDP by 2024.
THE END.

That’s the best news since NK gave up all their nukes! MAGA!In his 1,345,399th lie of his Presidency.....President Trump immediately lies about the results of his NATO meetings as our buffoon of a President finds you cannot bully other world leaders.
Also as a shock to nobody....his cult followers claim victory with nothing to base it on except the word of a liar.
Next for Trump followers......they'll talk about how the New England Patriots won the Super Bowl last year. Pathetic.
