Dave Rubin Report
NATO Head Admits Trump Was Right About NATO
"I was very disappointed with NATO and frankly if it weren't held in Turkey where my friend happens to be a very strong leader a very strong person I it's possible that I wouldn't have attended I felt I had to attend because of the fact that you know I know he's gone all out it was a big thing to have NATO come to Turkey or any place else it's a big thing but we weren't treated well because we did something in Iran Iran, we don't need anybody's help. I didn't even want their help. But before I asked, they said they wouldn't be there. And we've invested trillions of dollars in NATO. Why? To protect European countries and others, Canada."
Trump stated he nearly skipped the NATO summit due to dissatisfaction with alliance members who preemptively refused to support U.S. military action in Iran. He argued that America has invested trillions in defending European nations that refuse to reciprocate when called upon, framing NATO as an abusive relationship. Trump attended only out of respect for Erdogan's hosting efforts, while reiterating his longstanding position that NATO members must pay their fair share or risk U.S. withdrawal from defense commitments.
