Maybe it wasn’t their hand the felon was shaking!Presidential pep secretary K-K-Karoline Leavitt insists the bruising is the result of shaking thousand of hands each week.

I’m glad we were able to rid you of this illogical statement.<snip>Europe is not part of this equation.<snip>
If a delusion helps you sleep at night, fine. Trump would have accomplished his goals in this hemisphere with or without their help.I’m glad we were able to rid you of this illogical statement.

Does that table allow for us non nato defence spending? the us has many bases worldwide that are presumably not part of nato.Facts: how much does the US spend on NATO and how little do the rest of NATO spend?

The US pays roughly two thirds of the defence. As it is right now.
And EU is in the middle of accelerating our defence expenses.
Major Drivers and Initiatives
- National Escape Clause: To facilitate this rapid increase, the European Commission activated a "national escape clause" for 2025–2028. This allows member states (16 participating as of late 2025) to increase defense spending by up to 1.5% of their GDPwithout violating EU budget deficit rules.
- NATO Benchmark Shift: At the 2025 NATO Summit, member states agreed to a new, higher defense investment commitment of 5% of GDP by 2035 (3.5% for core defense and 1.5% for wider security).
- EU Joint Funding:
- EDIP (European Defence Industry Programme): A €1.5 billion program (2025–2027) was adopted to boost industrial readiness and support joint procurement.
- SAFE (Security Action for Europe): A loan mechanism providing up to €150 billionfor member states to jointly purchase military products.
- EIB Contributions: The European Investment Bank tripled its available financing for defense-industry suppliers to €3 billion in 2025.
