He likes the United States.
He's nothing if not a uniter.
I think we all know what Donald Trump loves more than anything.

What are the policies that President Trump has vs. the others that you base your vote on? I am guessing that you have certain specific issues that overrule all others.

It is said that Cadet Trump was deferred from the draft owing to one or more bone spurs on his heel(s) and subsequent student enrolments.
He received 4 student deferments and one medical deferment for bone spurs.
The (P )resident received 5 student deferments and one medical deferment for asthma as a teenager. Yet, he served as a lifeguard and played football - could have been an all-American, you know.
he was declared medically unfit because the his school record at the Academy and presiding physicians determined he was thoroughly devoid of any moral character
I've never seen that. Can you provide a link?

Actually no I can’t provide a link because I made it up just to give Copper the opportunity to react to a low hanging fruit of facetious sarcasm and call me out as an idiot. Which, of course he did in so many words:
It is said
Yes, it is said by idiots who make up stupid childish stories
Perhaps I am one among idiots. Not that I care what Copper or any one else here thinks about my postings. Just my way of calling him out and telling him I think very little of his reactionary way of seeing the world around him. There I stand.

WaPo has put together this nice article with graphics showing NATO member states' defense spending relative to the "2% of GDP" target, including trends for these countries over the last 10 years.
Among other things, there are these nugget:
Most of the countries that spent beyond the 2 percent mark either share a border with Russia or sit near the front lines of the Ukraine war.
(It’s worth noting that most of the big spenders have national laws or policies that require 2 percent defense spending in accordance with NATO’s goals.)
After Russia invaded Ukraine in February of that year, defense spending spiked in several countries.
