  • Even in France there’s a huge difference between the extreme right there and in USA. Le Penn is of course a traitor that support Russia, but she is not for instance advocating against healthcare for all. She is also not trying to undermine ordinary workers. But she hates foreigners and think Russia should be allowed to take Ukraine. But she is also not a war monger like Trump, and as far as we know she is not a pedophile.

    Yes she is bad, and I have no idea why she is popular in France? But she is not nearly as dangerous to our democracy even just in France, as Trump is in USA. Also they do not have 40-50% support, she only got 23% of the vote, only because France has the stupid system that ends op pitting 2 candidates did she get 41% of the vote, when there was only one other candidate to compete against.

    So you are wildly exaggerating the popularity of the far right in France and in Europe. Only the undemocratic presidential system in France makes her and “Rassemblement National” a danger of getting actual power.


  • if the US got the boot the Institution would than collapse

    Yes which is why in reality NATO has already collapsed, it’s just not been dissolved yet.
    But we can’t trust USA to lead NATO anymore. Are you aware that if a NATO operation were to happen in the middle east, USA would have control of the British nukes?
    Obviously we can’t allow that.

    as doing so means the US has more assets to bomb Iran and such.

    That is pure fantasy, USA has not redirected anything from the arctic or Greenland to be used against Iran.



  • Nope not anymore, several NATO allies supported Greenland with troops to protect against a US invasion.
    This of course pissed off Trump.
    EU of which many member countries are also NATO members, threatened USA with using the Bazooka, and anti coercion instrument that was originally made to defend against coercion attempts from China.
    This Bazooka if used, could dramatically undermine US economy.
    This warning of course also pissed off Trump.
    I think it’s pretty safe to say that Europe and very much Canada too, are tired of pleasing Trump.
    But for some reason Rutte hasn’t got the memo, or more likely he didn’t understand it.
    And now Trump is pissed off because NATO allies won’t let USA use their airbases for the illegal unprovoked war with threats of genocide that Trump entered without a plan, and without notifying NATO allies.


  • Mark Rutte is an idiot, and a traitor to the values of NATO just like USA.
    USA failed all tests when they threatened to invade Greenland, and Trump fucking even brought it up again during their meeting!!
    And Rutte has the audacity to make this idiotic statement?

    USA also threatened genocide against Iran, and Rutte thinks we should help him? Jesus Christ what a moron.
    NATO is a defensive alliance, not an alliance to support unprovoked illegal wars.
