    What was it Trump wanted NATO nations the spending to be again back then? I think it was 2℅ or something.

      Frankly, if Trump gets in again, all of Europe could raise their defense budgets to 10% or more of their GDP and Trump would still try to leave NATO, simply because he wants his Putin-sempai to notice him.

      He also wanted Mexico to pay for a wall, framed Putin and other dictators as geniuses and friends, and aimed to make America great again™ despite pushing it to isolationism and irrelevancy.

      Let’s not take a single sensible thing he said as some kind of huge win, especially when this has been the stance of US presidents before him as well. The only difference is that now war is close enough to EU that western countries started to wake up about the need to defend themselves.
