But where's the evidence this actually means something?  Seems a lot like the global warming debate - let's go back and change what was said to make us look more prescient.

No. Not a criticism of Trump.

Outside of posting memes and jokes, I'm laying off of Trump... at least until next spring (i.e. giving him a chance to show what he is actually about). As for any link between Trump and the Russians, I'm waiting to see what happens with that as well. I don't think Trump will be unseated by that.


This is about Russians threatening other countries. NATO countries. If NATO does not stand up for member nations, then there is no purpose to the organization and it should disband (Article V of the NATO charter). 

I'm also interested in seeing how this plays in the EU where they also have an enabling mutual security doctrine (Item 42.7 in the Treaty of Lisbon). 

If the U.S. is a country that honors its commitments to other nations, then it does indeed mean something.
