U.K.’s Keir Starmer and Prince Harry condemn US President’s NATO front line remarks

He called American veterans losers and suckers, what did you expect.

Shut the fuck up Trump

The bloody cheek of the draft dodger in chief to question the sacrifices of others. What has he ever sacrificed?

Draft dodging runs in the family, Trump’s grandfather fled Germany to avoid being drafted into the military.

The only time NATO article 5 was invoked was by the US after 9/11, when the NATO allies supported the US in their wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, losing hundreds of lives for essentially sweet fuck all in the end.

Disgusting scumbag.

Anyone not neck-deep in sunk cost fallacy does so.

I really fucking hope Starmer uses this to go all in on Europe, please never look back.

Please Starmer, we need to commit to Europe. Fuck these backstabbers.

I really hope Europe can start fresh and embrace us back into their open arms ASAP, enough is enough.

We need to work together as strongly as possible and as soon as possible.

Mr. Bone Spurs. I wasn’t a fan of John McCain but he was a hero and suffered terribly as a prisoner in Vietnam resulting in a lifelong injury. Trump called him a loser.

There’s one thing you don’t do in this country, the one thing that will piss off the entire public regardless of political spectrum – don’t come for our dead troops.

America is quite quickly becoming one of the most despised countries in the UK that anyone defending them or Trump (looking at you Farage) will become politically toxic.

The sad fact of the matter is that I doubt Trump is even bothered that he said what he did. No doubt his diplomats will be trying to repair the damage but to criticise the UK for not helping when as a country we lost hundreds of our service personnel, many more injured and £22 billion on what was ultimately a complete waste of this country’s time.

Let’s hope the US never finds itself again in need of help from other countries.

I wonder if there’s anything in the NATO rules that allows refusing to help an ally whose head of state has repeatedly made disparaging remarks about the help received in the past.

He’s been saying that about Canadians and Danes and others for a year. Starmer got to appease harder if he wants special treatment.

Not only were those remarks factually incorrect, they were incredibly insulting to the European allies named, the soldiers who served, and the families who lost loved ones.

The conclusion from Trump’s casual lying is that he could care less what is true. He uses words like magic spells that he thinks will have the effect he wants. Their link to reality really doesn’t matter any more. He is personally untouchable, and anyway leaving chaos in his wake keeps his detractors occupied while he barrels ahead doing anything he wants.

And UK still sides with the US instead of trying to hedge their bets with China. Why?

I have talked to some people in the British military and they aren’t overly enthusiastic about members of the Royal family. Wasn’t there a thing about one of them having extra security detailed to their unit, and getting a satellite phone in their tent? 

From
What I’ve learned in recent years having a royal in your unit has been awkward and painful. 

Oddly, and I’m just going on personal and therefore highly suspect anecdotal experience, I’ve also talked to people who served in the Falklands/Malvinos conflict   and no one had a bad word to say about the Royal family member who saw action there. 

The US is just another “shit-hole country” now. Expect nothing but disrespect, corruption and cowardice. It’s all very sad.

Afghanistan was the canary in the coal mine when it came to the problems with NATO. Multiple European countries had to be dragged into that hell hole because Americans were too retarded to stop some bedouins flying planes into the WTC, which was a consequence of their foreign policy in the middle east in which the EU was barely involved. It caused a huge loss of life and terrible consequences on the continent, like the terrorist attacks by Al Qaeda in the UK and Spain.

We should have told them to fuck off when they invoked article 5. Germany and France were smart enough to do that with Iraq, these statements by Trump et al vindicate them. I hope the UK will finally realize that the “special relationship” is just them being their most valuable lapdog, that’s how Americans see you when you essentially put your countrymen lives on the line for them

It’s insane, coming from a country that is all about their military to repeatedly disrespect those countries, it’s soldier and those who died fighting in their stupid wars.

I think every European country that had soldiers dying fighting for the U.S. should *demand* an unconditional apology and a *thank you!*

Both from Donold and from the U.S. people who voted this filth to be the representative of their country.

I’m curious if any elected Republicans in the US have condemned it?

Flood the zone. Flood the zone. It’s beyond ridiculous at this point.

Prince Harry too? Oh no. 😂😂😂😂😂
