“NATO was busted until I came along,” he began. “I said, ‘Everybody’s going to pay.’ They said, ‘Well, if we don’t pay are you still going to protect us?’ I said, ‘Absolutely not.’ They couldn’t believe the answer.”

This coming from the guy notorious for routinely stiffing payments on literally everyone and everything.

For real this guy's entire empire is built on stiffing everyone and anyone.

It's also not even how NATO works. Countries are recommended (not required, recommended) to spend 2% of GDP on their own defence forces.

He's a weapons-grade moron with the moral fiber and respectability of dog diarrhea.

“One of the presidents of a big country stood up and said, ‘Well sir, if we don’t pay and we’re attacked by Russia, will you protect us?’ I said, ‘You didn’t pay? You’re delinquent?’ He said, ‘Yes, let’s say that happened.’ No, I would not protect you. In fact, I would encourage them to do whatever the hell they want,” Trump said.

Anticipating the possibility of this demented traitor getting back in power is probably why the NATO generals were talking about beefing up their militaries a few weeks ago.

Plot twist, this causes NATO to boost it military, which in turn, manages to oust putin for someone European friendly. Trump refuses to pay the bill on our side, so NATO and the new russia invade and conquer the US.
