    He warned them about Russia, he warned them they needed to increase their defense spend. The Scoffed at him.

    Time showed he was correct.

    So in this instance you would be a dole bludger, a WINZ beneficiary, angry that the man who funds a big part of your lifestyle wants some recognition.

    America contributes 70% of the financial and military contributions to NATO, that’s 30 countries, contributing more than Italy, Germany, UK and France combined. And what thanks do they get? Tell me what the tangible return on investment to the US is in detail?

    Last I checked many of those countries are sucking up to Trump for funding and security guarantees in light of the Russia & China threat.

    And who is one of the largest lenders globally (not just NATO) when you combine its government lending, financial institutions and its role in global financial markets?

    Trump saw through the BS and is finally advocating, no, enforcing, that the US get a fair return and establish their rightful equity of power which they paid for.

    If you know something about Hillary and child abuse let's hear it. I sincerely hope you aren't going to bring up the basement in the pizza place.

    Apropos of Benghazi, no less than ten inquiries found no fault against Clinton. On one occasion she gave evdence for something like eleven hours without once invoking the fifth amendment. Compare that to any member of the Trump crime clan.

    After all that anybody bringing up Benghazi is casting doubt on their own cognitive capability.

    WTF are you on about? Trump pushed the Prime Minister of Montenegro aside. Montenegro was not then a member of Nato. They are now though because Putin's invasion of Ukraine made Nato membership much more attractive.

    Look at this tiny man.

    So you meant to say, Montenegro arrived at a US funded party as a freeloader, contributing nothing, to be the centre of attention in the photo?

    Let’s also not forget the amount of financial and military aid given to Montenegro by the US, including trumps administration playing the most pivotal role in their ascension into NATO to protect them of the looming geographical threats.

    Seriously though mate, we’re a bunch of grown adults talking about a light “shove”. Really? You get that shopping at Costco.

    No, that's silly. Trump would like to break Nato up because that's what Putin wants him to do and Trump is Putin's boy. He uses the excuse that Nato countries aren't paying. Putin's invasion of Ukraine caused Nato member States to up their military spending.

    There is as much evidence that Hilary abused Children as there is that Jim Jordan did. Which is to say, none at all.

    The accusation is that Jim should have known about someone else abusing children - but there is sufficient evidence to show he did not know.

    Still more dead bodies than Jim Jordan or Rush Limbaugh.

    I dont think Trump wants to actually break up NATO - but he has said at length that he is annoyed at NATO member states not spending their agreed amount of GDP on defense

    Trump warned the NATO members before Putins invasion that they needed to do this.

    Seems to me that if they had heeded Trumps warning, then there is a good chance that the invasion does not happen.

    Again you have to resort absurd mental gymnastics to try and prove your point. Jordan's students said they told him and his response was to giggle. There are other specific details mentioned but I suspect you already know them.

    Zero dead bodies attributed to Hillary despite ten enquiries and eleven hours of testimony.

    Give it up.

    How much of americas "foreign aid" is actually just them building an american military base in someone elses country? Or supplying arms where they should not be interfering?

    Some students claimed that.

    Some politically motivated students.

    All the other students and faculty members gave a version of events that disputed this.

    As for Hillary - I do not dispute there were enquiries or testimony, I just dispute their efficacy.

    I mean, not like she doesnt have a long and storied history of lying through her teeth to advance her political career.

    It is actually more interesting than that.

    Much of it is re-stocking the US own Military stores.

    It works something like this - almost all equipment has a shelf-life, say the US was to give $100,000,000 in aid to a foreign country - what they do is:

    Donate a bunch of equipment that is close to expiring
    Spend the amount donated on buying new equipment from the usual suspects (Raytheon, Lockheed Martin etc.)
    Put the brand new equipment into the US Military inventory
