      Mike Lee floats a lot of turds, even in excess of what the standard put out. He’s been agitating against NATO membership practically since his first day in the Senate, along with his close friend Rand Paul.

      This bill won’t even make it out of committee, unless Lee can get a bug in Trump’s ear over it.

      Why do you believe Rutte pushed through the 5% military spending target? It is needed to replace the US in Europe and be a working deterrent to both Russia and the US.

      It also is a bad move to leave NATO, as this makes the EU the logical center to coordinate the defense of democracies.
