Trump Threatens NATO Exit
The president has expressed particular fury toward European allies who declined to contribute forces to the war, claiming they 'turned their backs' on the American people.
Trump is reportedly weighing shifting U.S. troops from 'unhelpful' member countries to those that have been more supportive of his regional objectives.
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt defended the president's stance, stating that the alliance was 'tested and failed' during the conflict.
Democratic lawmakers have condemned the potential withdrawal as national self-sabotage that would undermine global security and embolden adversaries.
