Trump has said again that he will not protect select NATO member countries if they are attacked by Russia (Trump calls it Soviet Union and says it is the same, I think he has talked too much with Putin)

It is interesting that NATO invoked Article 5 for the first and only time in its history after the 9/11 terrorist attacks against the United States.
NATO countries supported the USA after the 9/11 attack, including Denmark where I am from, and we lost as many men/women in Afghanistan as the USA did if you normalize after the size of the population.

But now the USA, if Trump is elected, does not want to support select NATO countries if they are attacked by Russia/Putin. It is an indirect invitation for Putin to attack NATO member countries, since Trump does not intend to honor Article 5.

NATO is the cause of the ukraine invasion, NATO broke the agreement to build bases or have bio labs by the russian border. NATO is part of the one world agenda and gets provoked by warmongers into conflicts, had they not broken the agreement russia never would have invaded.

Somehow Wally i don't think your in the same league as this guy with your knowledge,

And to think with all that going for him, his final years before retirement, his focus was rooting “white rage” out of the military. His legacy is the current poor state of recruitment.

SPOT ON!!!! NATO next to Russia would be like Russia having bases in Canada or Mexico. Nato has over reached. That said, countries join because they have nothing to lose as they do not pay thier fair share!
