    Every US President since Truman has pledged support for Article 5--that US will defend Europe. Not so Trump today at #NATO. Major mistake.

        Particularly embarrassing that it happened in front of a memorial to 9/11 victims. Article 5 was invoked after 9/11. http://www.nato.int/docu/update/2001/1001/e1002a.htm …

        To be precise- article 5 was ONLY invoked ONCE -- & BY US -- [after 9/11]

        So tired of the @GOP looking the other way... Trump being President is a living nightmare much much worse than I ever imagined.

        There is no honour in this crowd. As bad as Watergate was...this is way worse because of how unprincipled these people are.

        Agreed. Although article 5 is for mutual defence & the US is the only country to have invoked it (in response to 9/11)
