As a vet of the American war in Afghanistan, I’m incandescently angry at this.

Sadly, I’ve encountered this before. The dismissive, “you’re not good enough“, attitude from Americans. It was their war. I lost a friend & had another very, very severely wounded fighting an American war. And now for a US president to spout bullshit like this is too much.

Canada spent blood and treasure fighting alongside the US. Not because we had to, but because we thought it was the right thing to do.

We were obviously wrong.

Trump on NATO: "I've always said, will they be there if we ever needed them? That's really the ultimate test. I'm not sure of that. We've never needed them. They'll say they sent some troops to Afghanistan and this or that. And they did. They stayed a little back, off the front lines."
