Right about that. Earlier this morning the president of the United States publicly hounded natos secretarygeneral, repeatedly disparaged germany and wondered aloud why america should be responsible for protecting europe against russia. Vladimir putin wants donald trump to break from American Allies. A few hours ago, that is exactly what he got. Wow. Welcome to morning joe. It is wednesday, july 11th. With us, msnbc contributor mike ba ba ba barniccal. And David Ignatius, nbc news capitol hill correspondent and host of kasie d. C. On msnbc, kasie hunt and former u. S.

Shocked by politicians in washington who act like the reality they re living in today will forever be the reality. donald trump will leave office at some point, and when he does leave office, these republicans are going to have a hell of a lot to answer for. i remember during george bush s second term criticizing his foreign policy and criticizing his deficit spending, and the massive debts he was racking up, and conservatives were attacking me. suggesting i wasn t sufficiently conservative, two, three years later. suddenly bush leaves town, and they have to defend all the things so that s why barack obama got elected president and there were 59 democrats elected to the united states senate. history moves on. donald trump will move on. all of this will be mud on their face they will have to deal with for a very long time. yeah. and they re all looking at ....
Nato. i do think the europeans understand that that relationship we have with them is an enduring relationship. it s not something that s going to come and go with a single president. mike? but you worked for a president of the united states who had his ups and downs, like all do. but this is the first time i think in at least my memory, maybe the country s history, where we have had a president of the united states who appears on the world stage next to other global leaders with a grievance, a public grievance on his shoulder. what s your reaction to that? well, you know, first of all, i agree with you. there were ups and downs with president bush, but he certainly never took a position that was antagonistic, although he stood his ground on certain issues. again, this is a stylish shoe. i can t explain why donald trump chooses to come out with a certain kind of persona. what i can say, though, again is that the organs of government themselves and the relationships between the eu ....

Aggressive against nato. one thought perhaps on the plane he might have read the briefing and been briefed. perhaps somebody could have talked to him. but instead, i think he got ramped up. this opening was tactical. there s no question. that he was beating up on stoelten berg in a deliberate way. he was playing to the camera and he knew what he was doing. i can only think that he was setting on a trajectory that we re going to see throughout this meeting in brussels. and it s only going to further soil his like. he is determined to blow up an alliance as america created as you pointed out there at the creation. we are now witnessing what could be the destruction. i have to think that the alliance and that history is ....
