Talk about kissing ass. Canada, and I suspect other countries as well, have already been finding lopeholes to reach Trump's 5% target without additional spending. I suspect a few countries in NATO will truly raise their military spending to 5% of GDP, but other countries are going to bend the rules.

This is Mark Rutte at his best. He has been the Prime Minister in the Netherlands for years and there the same behaviour, and if you distance yourself from him or go against him, he hugs you even harder.

Btw, he and Israel seem to understand very well that Trump's ego needs to be stroked with superlatives to get something done with him.

This doesn't seem like the type of behavior that is conducive to a collaborative effort like NATO.

Btw, political environment in the Netherlands is also a s4^t show atm, but more boring than the US.

I'm not too familiar with him a politician. I do know a few of the changes he's made in Holland that I don't agree with but I haven't been there in 20+ years and don't know the political environment.

There is no one better at getting the most diverse types of people on board and working together.

By the way, don't think that this text message was meant to be shared publicly, but negative things never stick to him.
