We know about weapons and ammo, tell us how it benefits our companies, economy, people, democracy, foreign relations, other strategic alliances, to walk away from the alliance. Tell us how that benefits our relationship with China and the ROW. Doesn't seem to, seems to play into the hands of Russia, China, and possibly Persia. How can we be trusted if we abruptly walk away from alliances just when we are needed?
You're missing the point.
It's not an "alliance" if only one lumberjack is trying to saw the log. If the guy on the other end isn't doing anything, then nothing is getting done.
Listing European woes doesn't explain how walking away is a strategic benefit for us.
"Listing European woes"? Providing for their own defense and their own industrial base is a core function of any government. And it's not too much to ask for the world's #3 (Germany), #6 (UK), #7 (France), #8 (Italy), #9 (Canada) and #12 (Spain) to be able to at least contribute a couple of Jeeps for the effort.
But according to the left, the Europeans have no responsibilities at all for their own defense.
That's ridiculous.
Funny you mention China. Exactly one poster on this board has mentioned that the Chinese are the real threat. Do we remember who that is?
