Senator Mike Lee and Elon Musk have called for the United States to consider dumping the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, also called the North Atlantic Alliance, NATO.

The House lawmaker had previously called the alliance which includes the United States and 31 other nations a “Cold War relic.”

According to the senator, the NATO alliance has to come to a halt, describing it as a “great deal for Europe,” but a “raw deal for America.”

It’s amazing that he has time to speak at all when it’s that far down his throat.

Get fucked, traitors.

Ending alliances that have stood for decades. This is simply an exit so America can side with dictators to take over other nations. We used to stand for the greater good of the planet. MAGA has ended that stance.

“We used to stand for the greater good of the planet.”

Rest of the world: 🤔

I know Trump is bad but let's not get ahead of ourselves. The reason that asshole is in office is partially because America refused to stand for the greater good of the planet, at least in the Middle East.

The disgusting reality is that these alliances will take decades to reinstate. Our reputation is circling the drain.

[-] DrFistington@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago

No, they haven't. Then outed themselves as ignorant traitors who are a vocal MINORITY. By the time we get things back on track, there's going to be a lot of dead MAGAts and want to be oligarchs and Christian nationals stripped of their citizenship, and their assets seized.

And there it is. If that really happens international stability will go down the drain. Does Trump want to return to isolationism like in pre-WW1? This doesn't seem profitable.

The EU member states are safe. The membership contracts include a defense alliance. But there some other NATO states that are outside the EU. They'll need to work out a European successor of NATO probably with the EU at its helm.

They are dismantling the US to make sure nobody needs to vote anymore. They dont need the us to keep current status quo. Its not relevant for their goal

what the fuck does putin have on these republican traitors?

jfc... what a bunch of incompetent traitors

[-] ChicoSuave@lemmy.world 21 points 2 days ago

I remember when Mike Lee said that America will give up democracy for prosperity. Now it seems he just wants to take democracy and fuck us with the bill.

I wish Mike Lee would get ghaddfi'd through the street of Provo.

Well there it is.

* The UN too.

An X user, @GuntherEagleman made a post with a caption, “it’s time to leave NATO and the UN”.

Reacting in agreement, the X owner shared the post on his handle and wrote, “I agree”.

NATO is pretty much controlled by USA. USA dumping it doesn't make sense if not because they are boiling something even worst

Incredible.
