That’s right. Allies can provide some help from time to time.

Is military help the only type of help that counts? And what are the requirements for that help? It's not like Canada, or NATO, have not contributed to U.S. military activities around the globe over these many decades.

To this board, everything wrong in the world is Trump’s fault. That’s just not the case.

Correctly pointing out that not everything wrong in the world is Trump's fault does not negate the fact that this specific problem is very much Trump's fault. He has adopted an aggressive, and in many cases actively antagonistic, approach to our allies. Almost across the board. With the very foreseeable result that those allies are now rethinking the extent of their support and engagement with the United States, and many of them (like Canada) are taking active steps to reduce their relationships with the U.S. That's a direct result of his policies, and saying so is not equivalent to saying everything wrong in the world is the result of his policies. That specific thing is.
