    There's an argument to be made for scaling back (or abolishing) NATO. But what Trump is doing -- egging on NATO build up while also undermining ally cohesion & trust -- is incredibly dangerous.https://twitter.com/atrupar/status/1019375130093522944 …

        What (reasonable) argument is there for abolishing NATO?

        What? Small countries should again be the pawns of nations like Russia?

        The argument for abolishing NATO is, I think, very bad.

        I think it was fair to ask this question in the early to mid-1990s. Its expansion could have been more considered. It's hard to understand the case today.

        There is room for a thoughtful piece outlining what US withdrawal from Europe and the return to a robust conventional military capability as well as strategic and/or force projection capability by Germany might look like - and then explain this is in US interests

        My point being to return the discussion / analysis to first principles rather than @realDonaldTrump’s fictitious protection racket

        I bet Eastern Europe loves the current situation of an aggressive Russia a Germany being encouraged/feeling compelled to re-arm & a US retreating to the western hemisphere, that's always been such a good combination for them
