"TRUMP: "But 23 of the 28 member nations are still not paying what they should be paying and what they are supposed to be paying for their defense. This is not fair to the people and taxpayers of the United States and many of these nations owe massive amounts of money from past years, and not paying in those past years." — remarks to NATO on Thursday

THE FACTS: 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."

I have read a few posts on here saying "good riddance" to our long standing European friends. Well, remember you said that, as Russia continues to make offensive moves in Easter Europe and we ignore them.

"While overseas in Australia for security talks, Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., said he thinks Russian President Vladimir Putin is “the premier and most important threat, more so than ISIS.”

“I think ISIS can do terrible things, and I worry a lot about what is happening with the Muslim faith, and I worry about a whole lot of things about it,” McCain told the Australian Broadcasting Corp. in an interview today.

“But it is the Russians who are trying, who tried to destroy the very fundamental of democracy, and that is to change the outcome of an American election,” he said, referring to Russia’s meddling in the 2016 presidential election.

“So I view Vladimir Putin ... I view the Russians as the far greatest challenge that we have,” said McCain, who serves as chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee."

Now, that does not sit well with you Trump lovers at all because of the investigation on going.

Seems to me that the posters on here could give a damn about our country or the folks we honor today, who gave their lives in defense of this country.

You seem to care about being anti progressive or anti liberal BEFORE and MORE IMPORTANTLY than being supportive of our country.

You WILL need to choose between country and Trump...you can write it down because that decision will need to be made sometime in the future.

This is the most un american man ever to sit in the White House.
