Donald Trump is planning out his next act of retribution -- namely, going after members of the NATO alliance who were "unhelpful" to the U.S. and Israel during the Iran war, according to administration officials.
He wants to move U.S. troops out of NATO member countries deemed unhelpful to the Iran war effort and stationing them in countries that were more supportive. He can't fully withdraw the U.S. from the alliance, which by law he can’t do without Congress.
And of course not a single administration official is pointing out it will only emphasize how weak he is. He has no idea of how to be a productive leader. No, sir!
Targets will probably include Spain, which blocked U.S. planes from using its airspace. Germany's top officials criticized the war. Italy also temporarily blocked use of an air base in Sicily, while the French government agreed to only allow the U.S. to use a base in southern France after it guaranteed planes not involved in Iran strikes would land there.
He's also talking about closing a U.S. air base in at least one of the European countries, possibly Spain or Germany, according to two administration officials. Wahh! Wahh!
