much they contribute to defense spending. is the president right? does he have a point? i mean, look at these defense expenditures complying with the nato commitments. the united states, greece, the united kingdom and estonia. and then look at all of these countries that aren t complying. i know president obama did make a point of this when he was in office. president trump is doing it in his own, unique way. is it such a bad thing that the president is badgering these allies to chip in some more money? it wouldn t be a bad thing if he was doing that in the context of reinforcing and supporting an alliance that has served america s interests for decades. it is a bad thing when he misses the forest for the trees. when all he can see is the dollars and cents in terms of gdp and defense expenditures rather than seeing all the ways in which our nato allies help us. includ including, for example, as we speak right now, there are nato allies right now standing shoulder to shoulder with us
