Which is what makes these comments stupid, even if it’s just for show

NATO is dead. Maybe this guy is just trying to preserve his job and relevance.

But anything short of unconditional surrender to Putin wouldn’t work.

Rutte should also realize he’s heading up a functionally non-existent alliance.

Traitor has a new love - authoritarians and dictators. He’s finished with democracy and nothing anyone can do will bring him back.

Zelensky showed great restraint imo. More than I would have been able to muster

ECTO - European-Canadian Treaty Organization. (Okay, bad acronym...admittedly)

And immediately accept Ukraine and Moldova. Same Article 5, but without the U.S. We don't deserve any protection right now.

The other way around might be acceptable. Or how about NATO just ignore the pos in DC and go forward?
