This is total bullshit. They agreed to get to 2% years ago and have been moving in that direction before you even came into office
Many NATO countries have agreed to step up payments considerably, as they should. Money is beginning to pour in- NATO will be much stronger.

They agreed many times over the years to pay up. They thought Trump would be a sissy like Obama only to find out they were wrong.

That's just wrong on several counts. Non-US spending on defence has declined over the years, its true, while US spending has increased
-
But it was only in 2014 that the 2% of GDP spend on defence was agreed by the various countries involved

This is what was agreed at the time (under Obama's watch):pic.twitter.com/bcJtRKeKtx

And since then, non-US spending on defence has increased in lines with those goals as seen here:pic.twitter.com/ne0XTD61eA

Both pieces of information, btw, come from NATO's website. Here is a useful page on funding:http://www.nato.int/cps/ro/natohq/topics_67655.htm …

And regardless, in NO circumstances does anyone "pay up". This is money spent by countries on their own militaries.

Not a fact. In fact total bullshit. As I have listed at length here. With supporting evidence I'm not going to repeat.

Yeah, I'm sorry, I doubt that very much. These are publisted statistics from NATO.
