HOLY CRAP. Sec. Marco Rubio just RIPPED spoiled NATO allies, saying the US will have to reexamine our membership once the war is over NATO screwed up! "We are going to have to reexamine whether or not this alliance that has served this country well for a while is still serving that purpose — or is it now become a ONE WAY STREET, where America is simply in a position to defend EUROPE, but when we need the help of our allies, they're going to deny us basing rights and they're going to deny us overflight?!" "If now we have reached a point where the NATO alliance means that we can't use those bases, that, in fact, that we can no longer use those bases to defend America's interests, then NATO is a one-way street!" "Then NATO is simply about us having troops in Europe to defend Europe, but when we need their help—not their help, we're not asking them to conduct airstrikes. When we need them to allow us to use their military bases, their answer is no, then why are we in NATO? You have to ask that question!" "Why do we have billions and billions of dollars, hundreds of billions of dollars over the years, trillions of dollars, and all these American forces stationed in the region?" "If we can only use—we can—in our time of need, we're not going to be allowed to use those bases. So I think there's no doubt, unfortunately, after this conflict is concluded, we are going to have to reexamine that relationship." "We're going to have to reexamine the value of NATO and that alliance for our country." "Ultimately, that's a decision for the president to make, and he'll have to make it."
