Trump tells allies to spend 5 percent of GDP on defense
New U.S. president aims to more than double the allianceβs spending target.
Lots of ppl ask me what Trump 2 will be like. The answer is: one gigantic corporate grift.
With one hand, DOGE bros may slash US military spending. But with the other hand, Trump forces NATO allies to spend billions more on defense procurement.
One big grift.
