The Russians are coming! The Russians are coming!

Paranoia has gripped the Europeans since the rise of the USSR after WW2. This madness, that has caused them to clutch onto Americans for protection and security, created NATO. They are still fearful and that fear of threat, which still exists, is the cause of the Ukraine war. It's time for the US to get out.

There is an ocean between us and the Russians, Trump pointed out. Even this fact will not temper the paranoia that has affected woke Americans

Trump will fix things. He has threatened SANCTIONs (a 1980s DEMOCRAT solution to ALL military problems) against Russia if it doesn't stop the attacks on Ukraine.

As far as the United States protecting Europe against Putin's desire to revitalize the Soviet Union and take back most of Eastern Europe, TRUMP is the FIRST president in HISTORY to put a price tag on our protection. These RICH socialist European countries ( who are able to afford HUGE welfare states because they spend no money on their own military protection) are going to have to PAY for American soldiers and equipment or President Trump will pull them out.

Want protection from Russia, Eurotrash? Time to pay up. Or send your OWN men into battle.

@Reason10 Its a simple matter of fairness. For decades the US has sat back like weaklings allowing our allies to walk all over us. Example, guess who the highest contributing country is per GPD? I'm going to do another post on this subject.

I can tell you some of the slackers are Spain, Canada and Belgium.
