President Trump caused a lot of hyperventilation among the Resistance this morning after criticizing Germany for buying oil and gas from Russia via the Nord Stream 2 pipeline. Trump’s comments came at the start of the NATO meetings:
What good is NATO if Germany is paying Russia billions of dollars for gas and energy? Why are there only 5 out of 29 countries that have met their commitment? The U.S. is paying for Europe’s protection, then loses billions on Trade. Must pay 2% of GDP IMMEDIATELY, not by 2025.

Former Obama NatSec spokesman and current Pod Save America co-host Tommy Vietor was among highly troubled liberals:
What good is NATO if our President won’t stand up to Russia about anything? https://t.co/ZmrOJxLo6h
