Republican Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) has moved to withdraw the United States from the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), introducing legislation that would formally end America’s membership in the 75-year-old alliance.
Massie argues the treaty has long outlived its purpose, drained trillions from American taxpayers, and entangled the country in conflicts far beyond its national interest.
“NATO is a Cold War relic,” Massie wrote on X.
“The United States should withdraw from NATO and use that money to defend our country, not socialist countries.
“Today, I introduced HR 6508 to end our NATO membership.”
My take: Even though Trump likely agrees with this idea, he hates Massie so much (and is such a petty bitch) that he'll come out against the idea.
