Today;s quote comes to us from President Trump, via his truthsocial.com website.
This is what he has to say about NATO’s lack of involvement, but no lack of complaints, regarding our action in Iran:
“Without the U.S.A., NATO IS A PAPER TIGER! They didn’t want to join the fight to stop a Nuclear Powered Iran. Now that fight is Militarily WON, with very little danger for them, they complain about the high oil prices they are forced to pay, but don’t want to help open the Strait of Hormuz, a simple military maneuver that is the single reason for the high oil prices. So easy for them to do, with so little risk. COWARDS, and we will REMEMBER!”
President Trump is not what you’d call a diplomat. And he isn’t helping our relationships with NATO countries by saying what he did the way he said it.
But does he have a point? Sad to say, yes he does…which is why he wins Quote Of The Day honors.
Note to the countries of NATO: President Trump has almost three more years left in office. You folks better start thinking about how you can make yourselves more relevant to the USA. Because if you lose us, completely or even partially, you essentially don’t exist.
