The hypocrisy of MAGA summed up in two @catturd2 posts.
Whatever Trump does becomes the right move in their minds.

That list is the argument for leaving, not staying.
Read it again. F-35 software controlled by Washington. Mission data files owned by the US. Targeting systems, satellite comms, military cloud, ISR, all of it running through American hands. Two thirds of European NATO arms imports from a single supplier.
He thinks this is a reason to stay dependent. It is the most compelling case imaginable for getting out now.
Because what he has just described is not an alliance. It is a killswitch. Every item on that list is a lever Washington can pull the moment European and American interests diverge. And after the last two years, can anyone seriously argue those interests are identical?
Europe doesn’t control its own air defences. Europe doesn’t own its targeting data. Europe cannot update its own fighter jet software without American permission. That is not a partnership. That is a client relationship with an increasingly unpredictable patron.
And the timing has never been better. Russia is a spent force. Ukraine has field-tested an entirely new model of warfare that makes half that dependency list irrelevant anyway. Patriot batteries and Aegis cruisers are last century’s answer to last century’s threat. Europe is already building the next thing.
The longer we wait, the deeper the integration goes. The more leverage Washington accumulates. The harder it becomes to leave on our own terms rather than theirs.
He proved the case for independence. He just didn’t notice.

@BasedMikeLee Only last year America was trying to annex parts as Europe and Canada. So get the fuck out of here.

We’ve spent $300 billion a year defending Europe
Making it easier for Europe to afford socialism
When Europe refuses to back up the U.S., it’s time to leave NATO

Trump threatens to quit NATO. We spend $300 billion a year defending Europe — including their war in Ukraine. But when we need them they don’t lift a finger. What it would take to leave.

The White House wonders why Europe won’t rally behind America in Iran. Maybe start by asking why your Vice President is flying to Budapest to have a warm chat with Viktor Orban, the man running a Russian influence operation from inside NATO’s borders.
While Europe has been bleeding money and weapons to stop Russian aggression, Hungary has been blocking NATO decisions, sheltering Russian intelligence, and doing Moscow’s diplomatic dirty work at every turn. Orban isn’t America’s friend. He’s Putin’s man in Brussels.
And JD Vance calls him a “good friend.”
Europe is supposed to line up behind a war that had no plan for day two, no strategy for the Strait of Hormuz, and no consultation with allies beyond Israel. A war that has already sent oil past $100 a barrel and left one of America’s most powerful warships reportedly retreating toward the Indian Ocean.
You don’t get to lecture Europe about loyalty while embracing the man working to destroy the alliance from within, and then demand backup for a war you started without asking anyone.

@PawlowskiMario @SaltyGoat17 We can pull our troops out of NATO countries while still being in NATO. Then, if we're needed, we'll be there...unless our favorite TV show is on or we have to wash our hair.
