I think I misread your previous comment. Regardless, both the 2% demand and the 5% demand were made by Trump, and the fact that other NATO countries are indeed spending a large chunk of those budgets on US weaponry should be all the indication that anyone needs that they are using Trump’s feigned belligerence toward allies as an excuse to ramp up military spending and war posture, particularly in the far north, eg Greenland.
It’s frankly unreal how many people can look at Carney’s actions and still believe his words.
I simply don’t think many people would agree that that’s the reason we’re doing it.
policy by polling is not a good way to form your own opinion. Do you think we should be doubling or tripling our military budget?
I thought it was pretty clear that I do, for the reasons already stated.
