Trump is doing a great job. He is the first President to stick to so much of what he promised the American voters during the election.

He has no fear of the powers to be and kept his promise of telling Nato nations that they must pay their fair share of military costs.

This is why Democrats hate him so. He can not be bought off as so many establishment republicans have been bought off in the past.

Let's be clear on this. N.A.T.O, was formed to protect Europe.

Thanks to America's 'Marshall Plan' of financial aid to a weakened post WW2 Europe they've long since recovered and are well capable to contributing significantly more to the cost of their own protection from the relentless march of communism which saw the U.S.S.R, ''appropriate'' such sovereign nations as Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria,Czechoslovakia, East Germany and Austria- 1945 to 1955.

Britain and the other nations of mainland Europe spurned Enoch Powell's wise words of warning regarding the security dangers of encouraging unregulated immigration from various parts of the world including the near and middle east and an 'OPEN HOUSE' policy or a 'COME ALL YE'', as they call it in Ireland, since 1968 and before.

Now that the Muslim ''fifth columnists'' are well and truly established in all N.A.T.O. countries the European politicians are JUST BEGINNING to realize how the presence of the ''enemy within' is going to have a significant influence on their foreign policies and their ability to combat the forces of I.S.I.S.

Everyone, including the dogs in the street knew what was going to happen way back then, but ''THE POLITICIANS'' knew better.

Now some, only some, ''POLITICIANS'' are seeing the folly of their predecessors and the price innocent civilians are now having to pay for the utterly eye watering stupidity of their weak liberal ''POLITICIANS'' past and present.

Among the horrors of manchester was one young girl who had both legs blown off.

All this and much much more, courtesy of our ''POLITICIANS''.

Hello bront:

Article 5 BINDS us to protect our NATO allies.. It's NOT based on whether they PAID.. If Trump wants it based on that, he should TRY to renegotiate Article 5.. But, UNTIL then, we should KEEP our agreements..

So if we pay nothing, NATO has to protect us. We should implement that plan and save billions.

Hello bront:

We need to KEEP our agreements.. It's no more difficult than that... Maybe, when we negotiated the agreement, we coulda put US in charge of collecting money.. But, we didn't.
