Trump Appears to Put Conditions on Aiding NATO Allies
July 21st, 2016
The U.S. has always run protection rackets with its “international partners.” Does Trump coming out and practically saying, We’re going to run protection rackets, make the situation any worse?
Here’s the shock and hysteria from the Clinton camp over this:
“For decades, the United States has given an ironclad guarantee to our NATO allies: we will come to their defense if they are attacked, just as they came to our defense after 9/11. Donald Trump was asked if he would honor that guarantee. He said … maybe, maybe not.”
The statement added: “Ronald Reagan would be ashamed. Harry Truman would be ashamed. Republicans, Democrats and Independents who helped build NATO into the most successful military alliance in history would all come to the same conclusion: Donald Trump is temperamentally unfit and fundamentally ill-prepared to be our Commander in Chief.”
Evoking the ghost of Ronnie Ray-Gun to get people to vote for Hillary? Priceless.

Donald Trump appeared in an interview to set conditions on coming to the aid of NATO allies while touting a foreign policy approach that would see the United States “fix our own mess” before intervening to help solve problems in other countries.
Trump said that if Russia were to attack the Baltic States — new NATO members whose friendly relations with the West Moscow views as a threat — he would decide on coming to their aid only after assessing how those nations “have fulfilled their obligations to us.” He characterized these obligations in mostly economic terms.
He spoke to the New York Times ahead of his acceptance of the Republican nomination for president on Thursday. He told the publication how he would make international partners contribute more to defense costs, pull out of treaties such as the North American Free Trade Agreement with Mexico and Canada if they don’t meet U.S. interests and redraw the terms of long-held global cooperation.
He said he would “prefer to be able to continue” with existing agreements but on specific terms: “We are going to take care of this country first before we worry about everyone else in the world.â€�
