    The underlying assumption of these rules is that USA itself, as the creator of NATO, would not want to leave NATO. Failed to foresee Trump.https://twitter.com/markmackinnon/status/1016774992745332736 …

    So, if I’m reading this right, the United States has to notify itself if it wants to leave ⁦@NATO⁩? (I suppose the drafters of the NATO constitution never imagined it would be the US seeking to leave the alliance it leads...) pic.twitter.com/QLwSJGPZdW

        We ALL failed to see Trump. Who would believe a womanizer, woman abuser, sociopath, manipulator, liar would land in the oval office?

        this is the true nightmare scenario. Leaving NATO will not be a clean or easy move, even for the isolationists eager to cut the U.S. off from the rest of the world. Our entire military/defense planning is based on strong commitment with treaty-based alliances. 1/

        if we suddenly have to go it alone without overseas bases, shared intel, etc. our existing military suddenly has to take on more tasks, for which we are woefully understaffed for already https://www.politico.com/agenda/the-militarys-real-problem-fewer-americans-are-joining-000005 … 2/

        Reaction to trump kicking ourselves out of NATO would be OTHER regional military alliances, especially in Asia, who may preemptively cut ties or reduce interaction with the U.S. military anticipating trump will make that move. We go from global superpower to third-world nobody.

        From a Constitutional standpoint though, can Trump unilaterally withdraw from a treaty without Congressional approval? Unlike the Paris Agreement, Congress did approve it.

        Technically the US can withdraw from NATO in secret and only let our allies know later
