We leave and save tons of money. We could drop the size of military by 50%. We would have a balanced budget overnight. Welcome to the new Clinton era type boom.
PS they are on the US platform as far as weapons go so sales would be robust until they developed their own.
Just as a practical idea what use is NATO? The US invaded Russia once but I don’t think they have ever attacked the US.

Thanks for showing that you are exactly like Donald Trump. A one-dimensional thinker.
Are you so arrogant that you think NATO is just some bunch of countries suckling on the mighty teat of the great and powerful United States? Arrangements with allies have benefits that go in different directions. Donald Trump views NATO as he views trade...it's a zero-sum game with a winner and a loser. But that's not how the world works. Most people (and hopefully you) enter relationships for mutual benefit at the very least.
Are these concepts your mongoloid brain can grasp?
The bottom line is: If Putin wants it, then it can't be a good thing. But isn't he your hero? You should go suck his nuts if you love him so much.
