cyclone24 1,926 Posted August 14 7 minutes ago, Ron_Artest said: Trump talked about pulling out of NATO. He doesn't believe in Europe or Allies, has nothing to do with funding, because he just sent our defense budget over a trillion. NATO was increasing their spending starting in 2014 and I provided the data that proves it. NATO is not at 5% and likely will never be. There is no credit to be given here. Agreed, we do not live in the same world. Again, it’s called negotiating. And what do you know it actually worked. See your problem is that to believe you everything that’s in your face has to be wrong about Trump. The 5% is made up. The tariffs aren’t bringing in money. Companies aren’t coming back. When we have a comical amount of evidence that all of these things are occurring. Again, you tried to tell this increase from some countries paying zero or 1% and that he went up to 1.4 1.7%. And then you try to say well they are increasing. Trump comes in and it’s now 5% but somehow he doesn’t get the credit for it. It’s laughable. It’s not even a serious point of view from a irrational person. It’s pure TDS. So no, we don’t live in the same world. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A more apt analogy would be your friend gets attacked by a thug and asks for your help, so you offer to sell him your baseball bat so he can defend himself, but you don't even want to do that anymore. I didn’t realize Ukraine was paying us for our baseball bats. I take it all back Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I asked you for evidence that companies left and are now returning or investing when they wouldn't before. If there is a comical amount, provide me some, any, please? Of course tariffs are raising revenue, but it's our money, it's a tax on us, it's not coming from foreign countries. It's not 5% now He doesn't get credit because it didn't happen. And I have TDS?

That alone was a big deal. Putin was saying a dime of help would be grounds for WW3. People were rightfully worried about what his reaction would be. Within years of that Ukraine was bombing inside Russia. People (us included) thought this war would be over in a few days and Ukraine would collapse. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

shadrap 237 Posted August 15 I doubt this summit will result in much. I give Trump credit for trying as he could have just sat on the sideline & continue to fund Ukraine like Biden did. I don't know the answer. Seems like Russia evades the sting of sanctions every time. I really think that since this is in Europe's backyard that they should be providing 75% of the aid required by Ukraine, minimum. that's all I got. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
