НАТО и Трамп
Шепард Смит на Fox News сегодня сделал сегмент о НАТО и о вранье Трампа о НАТО. 10 минут, но я очень рекомендую посмотреть.
Смит тоже говорит об этом, но вот отдельно об использовании Трампом "delinquent" в отношении членов НАТО.
"Delinquent?" There is no such thing as NATO dues. It's about how much of their economic output is devoted to defense. Allies have pledged to work toward 2%. They don't owe anything https://t.co/0QJpvVBKEt

P.S. Джон Керри о сегодняшней клоунаде.
P.P.S. И если кто-то не понял сегодняшнее "No puppet, you're the puppet" Трампа в адрес Германии.
Anne Applebaum: Trump accusing Germany if being "captured" by Russia is classic projection. Neatly covers up the fact that he is in fact the one captured by Russia, and provides cover for his meeting with Putin.
(BTW: the Nordstream-2 issue, which is complicated, has nothing to do with Germany being "captured" by Russia. Germany gets only 9% of its energy from Russia. The issue is to do with the pipeline making it possible for Russia to cut off other countries.)
(Trump seems to be using the pipeline issue, which he doesn't understand, as another tool to hit at NATO and disguise his real interest, which is doing some kind of deal with Russia)
to sum up:
1. I'm against Nordstream-2
2. I would be happy to discuss Nordstream-2 in a separate, less fraught context
3. Trump is talking about Nordstream-2 not because he cares, but because he is malelovent, and he wants to do maximum damage to to Merkel, Germany and Nato
