Maybe it's closer to 70. I doubt it though. I think it is closer to 100% than 70%.We have the bases and all of the equipment and the people. In their countries. At our expense. We are easily covering 70% of NATO’s security costs.

That makes no sense. What the F are you talking about?I'd prefer we stick with the 90%. If those European countries gave Trump lip service without attempt to fulfill their financial obligations then we should exit NATO and reduce our defense spending by 90% of NATO's total budget.
Money. Eisenhower wrote to be wary of the military industrial complex. Weapons makers support Republicans who will spend billions on unnecessary equipment which makes them rich. All that money.Goes to show we are spending far too much of our GDP on military expenses that we don't need.
What the President is saying.
Thanks for the support.
Then why did trump and the republicans increase military defending?
So what's the big deal if we cut back?FACT CHECK: Trump's Claims On NATO Spending
No, US does not pay for 70 or 90 percent of NATO
Obama applauds halt to decline in NATO spending
How NATO is funded and who pays what
We all saw Trump say the US pays 90% of what goes to NATO during this trip to Europe. In fact he said it more than once.
So what does the US actually pay?
22%
Yep, 22%, not 90%.
And it was back in 2014 that Obama demanded NATO paid more. And after the Russian invasion of the Ukraine and the annexation of Crimea, they got on the ball. They scheduled the increases into their economy. and we saw the amount they pay increasing a couple of years ago. Before Trump took office.
So the upcoming increases were negotiated by Obama, not Trump.
It's all right there. Easy to look up. VERY recent history. Believe what you want, but those are the facts.
Do you believe him?
You didn't even read it,did you. You looked at a chart that showed total spending for each country.Thread fail. According to polifarce US pays 72%.
And Trump said 70-90% depending on the way you calculate. He was clearly talking about the overall picture... I am sure you would have gotten it had you watched the speech in context.
Basically those nations are relying on USA and we are getting nothing for it. Trump is correct as usual. It would be less comical if they weren't at the same time funding their own invasion.

22% which, per capita, is far less than other countries pay.
