Democrat Senator Chris Coons admitted President Trump scored a big win forcing NATO countries to pay their fair share. This comes after NATO agreed to double defense spending targets because of Trump’s tough leadership.
NATO allies finally stepped up after years of failing to pay what they owe. They promised to spend 5% of their economic output on defense by 2035. That’s more than double the old target. Trump’s strong demands made this happen. He protected American taxpayers from carrying the load anymore.
For too long, other countries got a free ride on America’s strength. They relied on U.S. soldiers and money while shortchanging their own defense. That weak approach invited bullies like Putin to cause trouble. Trump ended that dangerous game by standing firm.
Hardworking Americans shouldn’t foot the bill to defend rich European nations. It’s simple fairness that every country pays its share. Trump put America first and forced our allies to act responsibly. That’s real leadership putting our citizens above foreign freeloaders.
President Biden’s weak foreign policy failed to get results like this. His retreat from Afghanistan showed the world American weakness. That only encouraged bad actors like Russia and Iran. Strong leaders don’t back down – they push for real deals that make our country safer.
Senator Coons, a liberal Democrat, had to admit Trump succeeded where others failed. Even he saw the NATO spending boost as a win for American interests. That says everything about how effective Trump’s tough approach really was.
This victory means stronger defenses against threats from China, Russia, and Iran. More allies pulling their weight makes America safer without costing us more. It shows the world that the U.S. demands respect under strong leaders who put our nation first.
Conservatives know peace comes through strength, not weakness. President Trump delivered that strength by forcing NATO to stop taking advantage of America. This deal protects our freedom and makes the world safer for generations.
