President Donald Trump is set to meet Nato leaders for potentially fractious talks at a summit in Brussels on Wednesday. Ahead of his visit, Mr Trump hit out at the EU on trade and at his Nato allies for failing to spend enough on defence. He was met with a sharp rebuke from European Council President Donald Tusk, who accused the president of criticising Europe "almost daily". "Dear America, appreciate your allies, after all you don't have that many." Mr Tusk added that the EU spent more than Russia on defence, and as much as China. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-44780489 |

Uncle Vlad treats us better than the EU. |

Skipping leg day is the equivalent of a woman having an abortion. You're ashamed of it, and it was probably unnecessary. #MAGA #wallsnotwars | |

Let's face it; you treat yourselves like s**t by electing cretins like Bush and Trump - then you expect others to take you seriously - H |

Perhaps this "foreign entanglement" of America is a prime motive for those who voted for Donald Trump as they are sick and tired of America's exceptionalism? The American heartland is sick of the USA's involvement in wars like Vietnam, Iraq and Afghanistan and its support for dictatorial regimes and for the spread of military bases all over the world. A great deal of blood and treasure has been squandered and most of it from those Americans who previously believed in America's special place in the world. The failure and moral loss of this ideology during these recent adventures for no gain in respect, territory or treasure has been festering and the people have finally rejected it. Donald Trump is the evidence of an outcome of realization that there had been too much loss and perhaps a return to a more isolated America may be in our future? |

The Queen, my fine republican rebel, earns more money for the country than she costs. She also commands more respect, as a person, around the world, than obnoxious, loudmouth Trump, (despite the disparity in their influence as Head of State). She has been in power since Eisenhower and has seen all your presidents come and go with dreary regularity; from the decent ones, whom you invariably shoot dead, to the Alfred E. Neuman's, whom you - to the bemused merriment of the rest of the world - venerate. The difference is, oh bewildered one, is that the Queen commands respect whereas Mr Trump commands attention. The day that you actually get around to electing somebody whom the world respects then you can whinge about Queen Elizabeth II. Cheers Hughmac

We are a nation that turns on it's Allies, embraces murderous leaders and we are isolating ourselves. Would you befriend this nation right now? Our word is not worth spit. We are not reliable as partners. We once were world leaders. Now we are just another world power. President Trump has led us to a post America world. |

I don't recall the EU appreciating the USA for the Marshall Plan by making an attempt to pay us back...Don't expect Trump to conduct a worldwide "apology tour" like that punk Obama................
