quote:

On Saturday Ivo Daalder, who was permanent representative to Nato from 2009 to 2013, respond to Trump in a series of tweets.

“Sorry, Mr President, that’s not how Nato works,” he wrote. “The US decides for itself how much it contributes to defending Nato. This is not a financial transaction, where Nato countries pay the US to defend them. It is part of our treaty commitment.

“All Nato countries, including Germany, have committed to spend 2% of GDP on defense by 2024. So far five of 28 Nato countries do. Those who currently don’t spend 2% of their GDP on defense are now increasing their defense budgets. That’s a good thing.

“But no funds will be paid to the US. They are meant to increase Nato’s overall defense capabilities, given the growing Russian threat. Europe must spend more on defense, but not as favor (or payment) to the US. But because their security requires it.”

That's a lol

I always assumed he meant that they should increase their own military spending, not pay money directly to the US. I just thought he was really bad at wording things. But when I read the article and think back to some of the poo poo he's said...

15) There should be secret compartments on the Mexican side which open when hidden pressure pads on the wall are depressed. On the inside is a picture of a better life to lure people in. Once inside the compartment grinds up the occupants and produces a burrito which is distributed on the American side along with one gram of beef. The burrito will be advertised as being "Made with 100% American beef".

He got a gently caress load of money handed to him and stumbled into the presidency due to the bigly incompetence of both the Republicans and Democrats. He disappeared on election night because he realized how badly he hosed up and couldn't handle it. Now he's surrounded by a bunch of morons because he doesn't trust Washington insiders, and he's running his staff like it's the apprentice so they are backstabbing each other and leaking poo poo that will hurt their opponents.

Actually he hasn't done a lot right, if he had just invested the money his dad gave him in a hedge fund he would have made more money than he has now. He basically got handed a fortune and all he's accomplished is not squandering it, thanks largely to his father continuing to give him money while his business ventures failed.

Yup.

And yet, this crazed loon is our president because he was able to manipulate a number of individuals into giving him power.

actually he kind of floats by on credit and reputation (he fooled you!) and at one point was in the negatives, perhaps still is, and the government bailed him and his casinos out because it would look bad on them as well in the casinos etc (they did not do proper background checks on his character, something required to build casinos in NJ)

Example: lie, tell everyone youre rich, if someone challenges it, sue them. Go into a bank and ask for millions and get it because of your reputation which is based on supposedly being rich and the land you own, which literally happened

he's not very good at what he does except lying and half the time its "i dont remember" or "its not what i meant" so thats not even very inventive

There is a difference between personal wealth and the wealth of a company, such as an LLC.
