Trump's Gripes with NATO
Donald Trump's main gripe with NATO lies in the financial aspect. He argues that European members of NATO contribute significantly less to defense spending than the US does, portraying them as freeloading under America's defense umbrella. Despite Trump's focus on money, his stance on NATO is also grounded in his 'America first' philosophy, pushing for a more domestically centered administration that prioritizes national issues over global affairs.
