I amuse myself with dealing with PF Euro a-holes for practice...

Is that what you think you are doing? lol!

Look, face the reality anyone who posts here and has no English as their first and primary language already has an advantage over you. It means that in terms of education and IQ, they can run circles around you. It is good manners that prevent us from stating it out loud, and a desire to play fair in my case.
Isn't that obvious, some posters are exceptions to that rule but let's be honest here the most active American posters are not the sharpest knives in a drawer.
I'm sitting on the fence here and don't like to take one or the other side but still, don't claim to represent Americans, there are plenty of Americans who understand that the US dominance and the US contribution to NATO are very well compensated in other ways.
That primitive notion that the US only pays money for others to enjoy free rides is simply not true. I understand that those are the points Trump makes and some of them are even talking points of the Republican party. (you heard it on the radio lol!)
That is the only reason y'all are harping about that as there is no tomorrow.
Wait there is another - you are all frustrated because you don't make as much as you would like and your life is hard and America seems to be going to the dogs and you look for a scapegoat that is easy to point a finger at and vent your underlying frustration.
I think not even Trump means that literally but would like to strike a new deal with EU countries paying more of tribute to NATO. You don't honestly think that would make any significant difference in the military and economic potential of the US?
It would change sharply if the EU became a competitor rather than a vassal of the US. One rule is sacrosanct you don't harass your vasals or it might blow up back in your face. It means the US doesn't need to leave anything the US is NATO, but if the EU becomes a competitor it will hit badly the American economy.
There is no point to all this on your part but toxic trolling and that only gives the Yankees a bad name.
But by all means, continue to spill as much toxic waste as you like. While you are on it hire a clown to make a spectacle more lively.

and if you meant to say - I don't need to hire one I have you. You know you are outmatched lol!
By the way, I think that should make one issue very clear in my opinion the EU countries should contribute more to NATO.
