The irony of Trump saying people need to pay their bills.
Really?

@@lukejs3182 He's a war criminal, and a rapist, and was convicted and proven guilty for those crimes, and the judges reviewing his case which he appointed when he was president, are now moving the investigations until after the election, and even though he was proven guilty he is not in jail, and if he gets elected he can excuse himself and pardon himself from his crimes. This is totally against the US justice system and a horrible example for the country.

I would never imagine that the USA would side with Russia against Europe
To be honest with you ever since WW2 ended 80 years ago Europeans have been for the most part very ungrateful and rather then being self reliant and learning how to protect themselves Europeans would rather leech from us Americans which by the way is very unfair to us the American 🇺🇸 tax payer.
As an American 🇺🇸 I think NATO members need to be held accountable because NATO members are not paying for their fair share most NATO members are not meeting their 2 percent defense spending budget except for Poland their spending I think 4 percent on their military while every one else is being lazy and not pulling their own weight in the NATO alliance.
Pay your bills and it's not an issue.

How many dead European leaders has Biden spoken to this week?
The money given to Ukraine by the US would be under the condition that it was spent on US weapons. And Trump saying "you got to pay your bills" is irony at the highest level. Here in Scotland all the little businesses had to get together to sue him to pay for work done on the golf courses. 🤦🏻♂️
Same here in the US - Trump lives to screw small businesses, which he despises as weak. That psychology is why Trump is so desperate to become president again - it's wrapped up in his fantasy of his male potency...which in turn in wrapped up in his self-worth... which in turn is why he and Putin get along so well. They're partners not just in crime, but in pathological insecurity.
That said, Trump would make sure Ukraine gets no money at all - he'd rather help "Make Russia Great Again."
Probably because it was substandard work
The golf courses are the only thing good in Scotland?
But Ukraine doesn't deserve our money. He's not wrong

Source "trust me bro"
So are you saying European countries shouldn't even meet the agreed 2% spending? I can see why you dislike Trump but in this case he's totally correct.
My problem with what he said is that every nato member that has a border with Russia or Belarus is spending more than 2%. So how the hell can Russia attack other nato members who spend less than 2% without going through the ones who met the requirement for protection?
yea good morning
2% of GDP spending on defense was never a requirement of NATO membership.
That does not affect your excellent point about border countries.
It's like a union or an insurance company. If you pay your dues, you are covered. If not, then you're screwed. Don't try telling me these countries don't have enough to pay theIr fare share. BORROW THE MONEY like everyone is doing. If the US is doing it, then they can too.

They were expecting America to provide the shortfall in capability that they weren't interested in paying for, from American tax payers pockets, and the American national debt.
America spends more as it wishes to project power globally and has interests and territories in the Asia Pacific region not just the NATO region having 800 overseas bases in 70 countries. Most NATO members have no significant out-of-region activities or interests. How much should or would the US reduce its defence spending if it withdrew all its forces from NATO? @@davetdowell
@@garyyoung3179 Not sure that was aimed at me, despite me being tagged. All I said is the requirement is and has been for decades 2% of GDP, and the very fact as stated that European countries have agreed to raise their defence spending to that requirement over a decade proved they hadn't already been meeting that requirement.
that's totally wrong. There is a 2% GDP agreement (take a look at the NATO budget overview) but only a small number of European countries meet this. For once Trump is correct

More to that Russia doesn't care about their citizens and can always supply their armies with fresh meat while US and Canada on other hand will try to hold them being outnumbered because they will not steal civilians from the street and will not put them in the army right away. Plus to that USA cannot make cheap weapons and it will be very slow in resupplying their armory while russia can do it much faster with bigger numbers, not to mention russia will attack with Iranian drones and can ask for more rockets China and North Korea if they run out of ammo.

It’s mad how much the UK pays. It’s 40 times smaller than the US but pays $65billion on defence vs the US $860billion. That’s $2.6trillion if it was the size of the US.😮
Land mass does not generate income alone. That's like saying Antarctica should pay 1.5 x as much as the USA. The population of the UK is around 1/5 of the USA (66,971,000 vs 333,288,000).
And yet we have nothing to show for it. Where's the money actually going?
So, go it on your own.
UK is 1/7th the US on GDP and 1/3rd on population so on either metric you are wrong. 1/7th of $860B is around $130B so the UK should pay 2× as much.

So the theme I’m getting in the comments is that because Trump has an issue with paying personal bills and six of his 250 businesses went bankrupt our whole country should be taken advantage of by Europe.. is that what you’re all saying?
For now the only party who have actually used the article 5 of nato are the US so saying that the nato is just a cheap way of countries other than the us to protect itself doesn't make sense and also trump almost halved his assets from 2016 to the present. Trump often sells himself as the honest competent self made man, but in general he inherited hundreds of millions, profited of public fonds and has had some pretty large business failures.
Don't forget America was in the past invited into 2 World Wars
TRUMP THE GOAT
The misconstruing of his whole thought in the title is hella weird. He said he would encourage it in a very specific situation that he already specified previously. It was to get a point across politically, he doesnt want Russia to start a world war. Nobody wants war,and thats not how he made the statement. Nobody hates americans more than other americans and it makes me sick. We are going to be at fault of our own destruction
Your comment is spot on. It's obvious that it's an imaginary scenario and he answers with hyperbole. The reporting on his comments is just pure mis/dis information.
I don't think the issue is that simple. A reasonable president who wanted other NATO nations to pay their fair share for defense would say, "If you don't pay, we can't guarantee that we'll be able to help you when Russia targets your country." That would have been sensible. That would have made the point for most leaders pretty easily.
The problem is that Trump said he'd *encourage* Russia to attack NATO nations who lapse on defense spending. Given the very long, very combative history between the US and Russia, for a president to say he'd encourage Russia to attack nations we are ostensibly in alliances with is the problem. Trump could have easily made this point in a more measured, controlled response - instead, his words didn't just chastise those member nations, but he threatened them too.
Maybe he WAS just trying to make a political point, but it's a very clumsy and very dangerous sentiment he's expressing. Russia is an enemy nation actively working to undercut and weaken not just the United States, but any partnership that the US is a part of. Putin wants to cripple America in more ways than one. I think the problem is that Trump was offering solace and support to Russia at the same time he was trying to offer stern condemnation to American allies.
@@blackpajamas6600 "A reasonable president who wanted other NATO nations to pay their fair share for defense would say ..."
But that's exactly what he said. What is mentioned here is hypothetical question asked after the meeting and it's clear he answers in hyperbole. The issue identified by the original poster isn't how he said something; It's the fact that this disinformation is peddled by organisations that are meant to inform us.
@@Rn-pp9et Why does he need to offer hyperbole on matters of such immense foreign and domestic importance? To the news media, no less? Why can't he just say what he means? The excuse he's given in the past for these types of answers is usually some variation of, "I was just kidding when I said that. I was being sarcastic. I was poking fun at the liberal news media."
Hyperbole is an exaggeration of the truth, and while it's not the type of thing that destroys lives, it feels...unnecessary. The guy was already president once. His base is loyal. So again, I wonder, why does he have to gain from exaggeration on this particular issue? If the media won't give him a fair shake, as he says, how does hyperbole not just make things worse? I'm genuinely asking. Maybe you see something I don't.
I am, however, reminded of what happened after Trump's pow wow with Putin in Helsinki. That was when he stood next to Putin and told the assembled news media that Russia denied involvement in the meddling of American affairs. He said President Putin denied interference in American affairs: "I'll tell you this - I don't see any reason why it would be?" And then the next day he told the news media that no, actually, what he meant to say was that he didn't see any reason why it *wouldn't* be Russia, and that he deliberately used the wrong word because he believed it would rile up the liberals (I believe he also said it was a typo too?). Sorry, long-winded way to simply say I don't think any head of state (even a potential one) benefits from muddying the information pool, so to speak. Well, maybe some do, but that's usually in service to their own political ends. Appreciate your insights either way.
@@blackpajamas6600 “Why does he need to offer hyperbole on matters of such immense foreign and domestic importance?”
It’s literary device to emphasise a point that he was making during their meeting.
“To the news media, no less?”
This was a hypothetical questions asked of him directly and he was retelling this to his supporters during one his rallies.
“Why can't he just say what he means?”
Anyone with a triple digit IQ knew what he meant. The only people falling for this mis/dis information job are people being misinformed by the mainstream media that are too lazy to watch the whole video.
“Hyperbole is an exaggeration of the truth, and while it's not the type of thing that destroys lives, it feels...unnecessary.”
Hyperbole is not just an exaggeration of the truth, it’s an exaggeration of anything to emphasise a point.
“So again, I wonder, why does he have to gain from exaggeration on this particular issue?”
To encourage NATO allies to modernise and expand their military capabilities and not just rely on US military posture. The very agenda of the NATO meeting?
“If the media won't give him a fair shake, as he says, how does hyperbole not just make things worse?”
The media has been lying about him since he announced his candidacy in 2016. Do you still think anyone believes that Trump is a KGB agent with a hot line to Vladimir Putin as was reported? The American and other Western news media is a joke. Trump realises they’re no longer needed as nobody trusts them. YT reporting and news channels have more viewers than any main stream news broadcast and there’s a reason for that.
“He said President Putin denied interference in American affairs…”
What evidence do you think exists or rather in what capacity do you think they are capable of interfering in US affairs? Outside of Facebook ads what do you think are their capabilities?
a vote for trump is a vote for putin
It’s better to seek peace with Putin anyway

He is nuts! Why would I vote for someone who seems to be against our own allies?
He disgusts me... I swear, if America picks him to be their leader again.... I have absolutely no hope left for this world.
why does he disgust you? does biden not?
@@karm00n29 Imo, Biden isn't fit to be a president either. But I'd pick him ANYTIME over Trump!

Well sounds like a bonus for the world then if he wins
@@karm00n29 Biden is senile, and Trump is an evil russian puppet, i'd argue the latter is far more disgusting.
The irony of Trump telling people to pay their bills 😂😂😂 i cant imagine why so many people refer to him as a traitor
Forget 27 LLC's 😵💫😵💫😵💫😵💫🤦🏽♂️🤷🏿 dumas

@@JohnBrinkman-v3h 🤣🤣🤣 I triggered a cult clown
The things Trump says, how he thinks... well, it makes me believe that today, any ordinary person could become the President of the USA.
Wouldn't trust Trump to honour article 5, you're on your own boys!😂
He'll have bigger fish to fry china, that's why he doesn't want confrontation with Russia it would split his forces.
The real question is why should any American trust any European nation, who has been underfunding defence spending year after year to be able to honour article 5. Most European countries barely have enough capability to mount even a basic defence of ourselves. How the hell could we live upto our treaty obligations to America, and as they can see that why should they trust us at all? They've known for years we couldn't honour article 5 if they were attacked even if we wanted to.
@@davetdowell because Europeans fight USA wars. Europe helped USA in Iraq and Afganistan. When USA will have war with China they will be on their own
Even worse after betrayal. Europe can become enemy of USA. USA would loose world trade and just revert to pre WW2 USA. Instead be global super power they will turn into backwater country with inlfation like deuing Big Depresion of 1932.
Stupidity of americans who dont get where money in USA come from: from global trade which based on USA dominance and influance. Without that influance USA money simply would gone.
But maybe it for best. USA clearly showed they cant be world leader time to step down from that position.
Russia's Eastern European neighbours pay they bill and countries like Poland were always there for USA. They know Russia better thna most ofyou ever will and they know what is at stake. Many others who are lucky not to have a common border with Russia think "it is just some slavic mess and Putin will not reach them anyway. @@davetdowell
@@davetdowell Nato triggered Article 5 to go into Afghanistan in support of the US after 9/11... On the note of European self defence, the solution isn't hope the Americans elect a President the EU can trust, the solution is to re-ignite the local arms industry, so Russian don't dare to fire a shot!
The Ukraine figures are just lies. It's not 200 vs 25, it's about 75 vs 75 and now EU has commited to another 70. His point with NATO in general is true, members were dragging their feet because they could and he did get them to step up.
Mr Putin rattling his military muscles in Ukraine helped more!
That's true. Although the fact he was pressuring Germany/France to up military spending to a basic 2% before the invasion and then real world events have forced their hand...only shows he was ahead of the game in this particular instance.
@@-gn7snI mean France has steadily always done around 2% for basically forever.
Which is why France unlike Germany has: nuclear weapons, nuclear sub, nuclear aircraft carriers, their own satellite systems.
So saying trump nagged France is hilarious because they have one of the most effective defense industries in Europe.
But hey it's ok maybe Europe goes its own way USA can fight alone.
No he didn't most of countries were spending below 2% and are still spending less than 2%, only countries that spend more than 2% are those which are directly threatened by Russia, which is CE Europe.
The US has sent about 200 billion
whelp, time to withdraw from the nuclear proliferation treaties then
Can you imagine the response if Biden had said this. Yeah. What I thought. Bunch of MAGA hypocrites.
Poor Trump forgot about USA‘s western border. The ocean is veeeery small there. Who’s the neighbour again…?! Please show a world map to him!
Is the ironic that he was talking about people paying their bills...
One of the Greatest brains in America. Truly blessed.
If he would’ve said this 70 years ago he would’ve been in jail for treason.
It's always weird getting an insight into a delusional narcissist. Good job that he holds no sway.........
Trump, you not welcome in world ! What next, jail !
He obviously has a personal connection to Russia. That's why his wives are Russian and got us citizenship through marriage and having children
surely he does... and prob he is just trying to convince Mr putin to let him win his election: I give u ukraine and u give me the White house.... see he is a business man ... I feel sad
Yeah, encouraging NATO countries to actually fund their militaries proves a personal connection to Russia
His wife is Slovenian but otherwise you are right with the Russian connection and interest their
@@Robert-te2yy who invaded Iraq 🇮🇶
if his wife is Russian, then you are african..
I agreed with him all the way till he made that stupid remark at the end, why should I support him, I support the agenda until he adds in that stupid crap. He’s going to run us into 4 more years of Biden.
America needed a coalition of 48 countries to take on Iraq! And obviously that went SOOOO well.
Russia will do it better.

It also needed 48 countries to attack Afghanistan before Iraq!!
Humiliating the other countries in the course!!!
How desperate are you to take things out of context goddamn
They're very very desperate, Trump should sue.
1:20
It's not out of context, he literally said it in this video
In what context would this drivel make sense?
@@randomdaveUK context is what matters.
The only reason Trump doesn’t want to pay out any more money is that he desperately, personally needs it to cover his ever mounting legal costs! Not to mention the huge bill he needs to meet for his hair maintenance. Quite an ironic pair really as both of them are so false.
Yes. Nato has to wake up. But saying it the way he does makes Trump unreliable. EU is better off with it's own army eventually.
The EU Army ?!?!😂😂😂😂😂😂

Wow i’ve been trump since day one.. But I don’t agree with this statement i’m voting biden..Agreed with everything but when he said “encourage russia to do whatever they want” lost my vote..He would let russia destroy one of our loyal partners because they owe money 🤦🏻♂️ Just shows trump isn’t loyal and cares about russia more than other countries… Wish he never said that he will lose the election now…
Bye bye
Same here
Another sorry confused statement that why I left the GOP party
That's not. Encouraging russia to attack nato
He said he would encourage them (Russia) to do whatever the hell they wanted, Trump is a complete idiot !
The title says Trump would let Russia attack NATO. The video is of Trump literally (and I'm using the word literally correctly) saying he would encourage Russia to attack NATO countries. Regardless of whether those countries are in NATO or have "paid their bills", it's still insane that this utter clown would not just let but "encourage" them to be attacked by Russia. Letting civilians be murdered because of some financial dispute is wildly ironic coming from a man who is famous for not paying his bills.
That's not. How full stops work
Does this also include Slovenia where your wife is from or will that country be an exclusion?!
TRUMP 2024!!!!❤❤❤
This is getting ridiculous, they must really think we are this stupid
Stupid if you believe this fool.
They really do. Journalists are made up of those so-called "educated classes" that Matthew Goodwin has identified, and so impossibly smug and self-satisfied, that they actually think, and believe, that everyone else is as stupid as they are.
Exactly
Well they’re. Trump has a lot of supporters. The world already lost respect for Americans the education system is a joke rn
@@MoonlightSonata160 The irony..
"There's an ocean between us".... Geography clearly isn't Trump's strongest subject.
Maybe he hasn't figured out that Russia is 55miles away from Alaska 🤔
He also doesnt recognize that there are submarines with nukes and that US needs Europe's support when it comes to sanctions on China and when the war between US and China blows, US will very likely be asking Europe allies for help.
With such approach US won't have many allies that will be ready to go with them anywhere and alone they won't be that powerful.
You have no logic here, even if the narrowest strait is that long, his statement is true..
A military build up there would be easily detectable....years in advance. There's literally no infrastructure there. So yes, Russia's maritime border with Alaska might as well be an "Ocean."
America blew up Germany's Nordstream. Now America is asking Germany for more protection money. Make it make sense. 😂
Being an enemy of America can be a dangerous matter, but being a friend of it is a deadly matter.
Henry Kissinger
Somehow being an ally to the USA is worse than being an enemy of the USA as an Australian citizen too
Now trump will pay his bills
